Walking around Shoreditch on Saturday night, you might have thought that you’d stepped back in time. A faint sound of swing music coming from the alleyway, faint glowing lights in a blackout, the gentle rumble of dancing feet and chatting friends – it’s Bourne & Hollingsworth’s Blitz Party.

Siren: Blitz Party

V signs and Victory rolls, pride and passion, blackout blinds and banter, and a right good knees up. Whether it’s historically accurate or not, we associate the Blitz as a time of camaraderie and good times, when everyone lived for the now, and had a good time doing so.
The brilliant Bourne & Hollingsworth are running another of their immersive Blitz Parties on September 13th, this time over at the Village Underground in Shoreditch. Sandbags, Union Jack flags, dashing men in uniform, red lipped girls, swing dancing and bunker bars, these guys go all out to transport you back to another world.
And the cost of this time travelling experience – only £25. Bargain.

Gin in tea cups, silent movies, clandestine casinos and dimly lit corners. All complete with vibrant dancing, luxurious dress and a knowing nod. Beats a night out in the pub right? Atmosphere and ambience combine to celebrate the good life in the fabulous Prohibition Party, and the next one is a special celebration, being the half century event.
The fiftieth Prohibition Party takes place at the beautiful Art Deco Bloomsbury Ballroom on 28^th June, and promises the usual evening of unbridled decadence and resolute hedonism. Flamboyant and impressive, roaring with fun and resplendent with detail, it’s the only way to spend a Saturday evening.
