Secret Garden Party Winter Voyage

Secret Garden Party Winter Voyage

The Secret Garden Party is the annual, four day, fancy dressed mess around which occurs in a beautiful garden in Cambridgeshire. The team throw occasional London bashes and when they do, they pull out all the stops.

Their extravagant Bacchanalia Ball earlier this year was an incredible, gothic affair peopled with Gods, Godesses, nymphets and demons. A hot tub, nudity, games, live music, upfront DJs and the festival’s irrepressible sprit made for a colourful party. Devotees buy their tickets as soon as they hear an inkling of a party because they know they are guaranteed a good time.

Well, luckily for you there is another celebration planned for the 12th of December in the form The Secert Garden Party Winter Voyage - a nautical themed party occuring at the excellent Troxy.

Attendees take to the high seas for a night of adventure, rum, pirates, mermaids, sailors, creatures from the deep, high end luxury and plenty of out-and-out debauchery. Expect the lure and lore of 1920's elitism, the usual devotion to detail you've come to expect at SGP events coupled with the open-minded characters you typically encounter on the SGP dancefloors.

The Troxy is refitted as the HMS Ulysses for the evening. Guests must board the wildest ocean liner ever to set sail by 10:30pm. Be hasty, they wait for no man.

Musically, you’re in for a treat. French electronic rock impresarios Rinôçérôse are aboard to play a rare live show. Electro swingers The Correspondents join cabaret London jazz ensemble Ta Mere, big band exemplars The Destroyers and a host of banging DJs including turbo crunk badman Your Niece and tech specialist Head of State.

If you've ever been to one of their events you'll know that fancy dress is an absolute must and the level of effort is sky high. If you haven't, then now is your chance.

For 20% off an incredible Prangsta costume, simply mention this event.
