Grotto and tonic is the new G&T.
Caught the festive flu yet? Don’t be a Scrooge, delve into the magical land of Humbug, an immersive Christmas dive bar. For a limited time only from 15th November, merrymakers can get lost within a hidden world of storytelling and sing-a-longs under the arches of Waterloo. During an interactive two-hour performance, Santa and his besties will task you with the hefty job of saving the day (or you can merely watch it chaotically unfold), followed by a rewarding big boozy winter blow out.
This unforgettable experience comes from the new production enterprise Secret Speakeasy, founded by Backyard Cinema's James Milligan and Immersive Everywhere's Matt Keeler. Under ribbons of mistletoe and sparkling lights, treat your tastebuds to inventive cocktails from HUMBUG’s Naughty or Nice menu, including The Grinch (rum, peach schnapps, blue curacao and pineapple juice) and Bah F*****g Humbug (rum, chocolate liqueur, oat milk, crushed Oreos and whipped cream, topped with a mince pie) for those who are really in the spirit.Far from being short on entertainment, pleasure seekers can party into the early hours of the morning with plenty of live music and DJ sets - it's Christmas cheer on tap.
The experience is open from the 15th November until the 6th January at Unit 9, Leake Street Arches, SE1 8SW. Get your Humbug Waterloo tickets here and sign up to our newsletter for all the latest news sent straight to your inbox.
