The Forbidden Spectacular New Years Eve Party

In honour of the duality that has made the Buddha-Bar brand a global phenomenon, this glittering, 1950s-styled East meets West extravaganza has been inspired by two of the most iconic films of the 20th century: Bertolucci’s The Last Emperor and John Huston’s Moulin Rouge.

The two floors of Buddha-Bar London will be transformed into completely separate areas - Heavenly upstairs and Forbidden downstairs - each imbued with an atmosphere that is at once surreal and decadent.

Buddha-Bar’s chefs have been hard at work conjuring up delectable menus that will include such mouth-watering delicacies as Seared scallop with yuzu and glazed shiso miso & crowned with caviar. In keeping with the theme of the evening, courses will be accompanied by sake, whilst each party of four will also receive a complimentary bottle from one of the great French champagne houses to celebrate as the clock strikes midnight.

Complementing this dazzling culinary offering is a programme of entertainment. A casino and hidden carnival-style fair, cocktail trolleys dispensing absinthe and champagne, a French string quartet, a performance from Moulin Rouge’s very own infamous Diamond Dog Dancers and a balloon drop are just some of the many treats in store.

Add into the line-up a Master of Ceremonies who will direct proceedings on both floors and Buddha-Bar London’s celebrated DJs with a mixture of Asian and Parisian inspired beats and the scene is set for a truly extraordinary evening.

Tickets for Buddha-Bar’s Forbidden New Year’s Eve Spectacular are available now, priced from £80 per person. Tailor-made for parties of all sizes, the various options include complimentary car collection for tables of eight or more.
