The Candlelight Club's Halloween Ball

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

No one liked a fancy dress party more than the racy Jazz Age crowd so where better to celebrate the spooky season that our elegantly eerie ball? Photos and fashion plates show us that the 1920s idea of a Halloween costume was more about glamour than gore so if you’re looking for a more refined seasonal soirée head our way.

Leading the revels will be Ghost With the Most Dusty Limits with a demonic ditty and a cabaret swagger who will introduce uncanny burlesque from that mystery of the East Suri Sumatra. Sinister songbird Elise Roth and her band the High Spirits will be proving the Devil has all the best tunes while mellifluous witches the Bees Knees will be spinning records by long-dead artists. There will also be a pop-up vintage jewellery store and a fortune teller to reveal what horrors lie ahead all in a shadowy hall filled with our famous jack-o’-lanterns.

You can come just for drinks and dancing but you can also reserve a table with Champagne or book the three-course dinner. There’s even an inclusive-drinks option. Ticket-holders receive an email two days before revealing the secret location (which is close to a tube station). So pull on your flapper dress and get ready to Charleston your way to the Witching Hour…

"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
