The time has once again arrived for medal-clad gentlemen and red-lipped ladies to fly back in time, to an era filled with wartime revelry and 40’s glamour, for one of the most notorious and memorable parties in town.
Bust out those shoulder pads, hitch up those stockings, and wave your Union Jack with pride, because The Blitz Party is back on Saturday 5 March 2016, for an unforgettable evening of patriotic splendour.
Held at a secret East London hideaway, this covert den will be filled with sandbags, black out curtains, military bunk beds, a swing dance hall and a live music stage; the ultimate wartime air raid shelter, with a location revealed two weeks prior to the event. Replacing ordinary bar menus will be replica ration books, and scarce provisions will line the walls ensuring a complete and genuine 1940s atmosphere.
Performances from some of the UK’s most talented musicians and big band tunes will provide the perfect soundtrack throughout the evening, allowing polka dot-clad girls and uniform-donned men to show off their dance moves until the early hours. Bourne & Hollingsworth will be providing classic cocktails and a steady supply of bubbly throughout the night, along with retro wartime snacks. For those that fancy perfecting their dancing moves before they execute the perfect Jitterbug, a dance class will also be available from 7-8pm for an extra £5.
