This Funzing Experience:

London’s award-winning immersive 1920s-themed speakeasy party, with live jazz, cabaret and cocktails in a secret venue filled with candles, where everyone dresses the part.

What more romantic way is there to celebrate St Valentine’s Day than an evening of Charleston-dancing, cocktail-sipping and general 1920s glamour? 

Of course, to Prohibition folk it was also the day when, in 1929, Al Capone's men mowed down six members of Chicago's North Side Gang—the infamous St Valentine's Day Massacre. So watch us shoehorn romance and mobster slayings into one party theme — think guys and dolls, gangsters and molls, Guns n' Roses.

Live music will come from cheeky jazz Cupid Jack Calloway and his Parlophonians, raising the rafters with a hurricane of swing to get your feet moving on the dance floor. Hosting will be the Lord of Cabaret misrule, Champagne Charlie, with a slap, a tickle and a saucy song. When the band aren’t playing DJs the Bee’s Knees will be spinning vintage vinyl into the night. There will also be a pop-up vintage jewellery store, a fortune teller and a roaming photographer.

You can pre-order a three-course dinner (which includes a table reservation all night) or reserve a table with Champagne but without the dinner. In addition to the main cocktail bar, our rum, absinthe and cigar bar will be selling genuine Havana cigars to smoke in our private garden. Ticket-holders receive an email two days before revealing the secret location.

Note that our party is not just for spooning couples—as at all our events, we welcome groups of friends, swing dance fans, vintage dandies, lone wolves and conga-dancing party people.

"The closest you'll find to an authentic Jazz Age experience in central London. Its unique ambience, fuelled by hundreds of candles, is truly a scene to behold." —Time Out
