New Year's Eve at Mason House: The Venetian Masquerade Ball

Taking inspiration from the iconic Carnival of Venice and cult movie Eyes Wide Shut, new London nightclub Mason House will be celebrating the end of 2013 by hosting a secret party like no other.

On Tuesday 31st December, revellers will be invited to party incognito and become voyeurs through the medium of fancy dress, allowing their inner mischief-maker to come out to play for the night. In keeping with Mason House’s reputation which is shrouded in mystery, partygoers must come with a costume, a mask – and of course the secret password – to gain entry.

Guests will enter the venue through the club’s crypt, which will be draped in harlequin-themed décor to match the trademark Masonic dance floor. Dressed in classic Venetian ball gowns, masks and wigs, the club’s hosts will escort guests to fully serviced tables where magnums and jeroboams of the finest champagne will be available to welcome in the New Year in style. The club’s state-of-the-art Funktion 1 sound system, the most advanced in the world, will keep guests entertained playing an eclectic range of music throughout the venue.

Tickets will be priced at £45 per person from 10pm. For those wanting champagne and nibbles, a Moet and canapé reception will be held in the private club area from 8.30pm through to 11pm, priced at £75 per person. VIP tables and bespoke table packages are available upon request. Entrance is for members and their guests, or via a guest list.
