RETURN TO THE ROARING TWENTIES
Saturday 12th April 2014

“Men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.”

On Saturday 12th April 2014, London’s most hedonistic partygoers are invited to indulge in a night of rip-roaring revelry and mischief. Prohibition is a mesmeric foray into a bygone era in which sensational glamour and wanton waywardness were the order of the day.

Tucked away and concealed from the prying eyes of patrol officers, Prohibition beckons you to join the vivacious throng inside. This evening of illicit drinking and unbridled good times is held at top secret location in London.

Prohibition sweeps guests away to the giddy magic and romance of the glistening Jazz Age, a time when footloose flappers danced the Charleston, card sharp cads tried their luck at the roulette table, and everyone quaffed elegantly on the free-flowing bootlegged booze.

Throughout the night, entertainment includes live bands, DJs on gramophones, silent cinema, dancing troupes and gambling tables. In order to elude the beady eye of the law, cocktail menus are circulated hidden inside the pages of books, and drinks are served in teacups.

In an age of loosening morals, soaring stocks and bootleg barons, the famous parties of the 1920s cultivated an unparalleled atmosphere of opulence, exuberance and decadence. Prohibition invites ladies to slip into their tassels and pearls, gentlemen to don their tuxes and spats, and everyone who is anyone to join them for a unique and clandestine revival of an enchanting past.
