Christmess is a colourful foray into Nicky’s Imaginarium, a naughty and anarchistic world inhabited by St Nicky and his revolutionary theatrical entourage. Featuring pop up bars, deep-southern feasts, raucous parties, live jazz, cabaret and a glittering bazaar, Christmess is creating Christmas parties like you’ve never seen before.
Set in the Victorian surroundings of The Hunter Penrose, Christmess is the latest festive instalment from Slap Ya Papa and Marbles & Ware. Featuring pop up bars, deep-southern feasts, raucous parties, live jazz, cabaret and a glittering bazaar, Christmess is creating Christmas parties like you’ve never seen before. At this unique festive residency, Ps & Qs are replaced with Gs & Ts, table etiquette consists of dancing on them, and everyone’s in the mood for mischief.
Enter the mesmeric world of Mama Claus’ hidden parlour-come-blues room or pay a visit to Santa’s Whiskey Grotto. If you’re lucky enough to catch her, you may even discover the glittering Green Fairy who has set up a bottle shop in the form of a hidden absinthe bar, granting guests a wish and a little tincture to help them on their way. Other bespoke entertainment includes a harem of Santa’s little helpers, lots of live music, mindful talks as part of the Imagination Series, Sunday storytelling from The Embers Collective, a comedy matinee of the Night before Christmas and many more resplendent events.
While exploring this secret festive world, guests will be able to salvage presents from the elves at the makers market. Open throughout the day, the downstairs workshop will be filled with the working studios of a host of independent makers.
Nicky’s Imaginarium will also feature a wine bar where festivity-seekers will be able to pop from the cold to enjoy a glass of glogg accompanied by abundant platters of cheese. Christmess will catapult Londoners into a scintillating soiree of sybaritic festive chaos.
Dates: December 2nd, December 9th, December 16th, December 22nd
