Celebrating Quintessentially’s 5th birthday in Hong Kong and raising money for our philanthropic arm, the Quintessentially Foundation, I’m delighted to announce that we’re bringing top London nightclub Boujis to Hong Kong for the very first time. Our charitable pop-up club in Sheung Wan will be open from 14th to 16th October 2010 for three exclusive nights only and will give back to the community in the form of charitable workshops as well as exciting evening events. We’re absolutely thrilled that HSBC Private Bank and CSL 1O1O are on board as the official partners of the club.
The pop-up is taking place at The Space, a new extension of local art institution The Cat Street Gallery. The club will showcase an international mix of the hottest DJs from London at the club nights alongside daytime community workshops to raise money for the Quintessentially Foundation benefiting local Hong Kong charities.
During the day, kids will take part in music, art, cooking, photography and design classes while in the early evening, we’re selling tickets to an exclusive mixologist event and working with The Financial Times on a lifestyle quiz with fab prizes. As the lights go down, Boujis will be taking over and transforming the space into Hong Kong’s most exclusive club, with DJ Klaus flying in the decks of London’s Boujis to ensure the party continues well into the morning.
Joining forces with Boujis, hot dining destination 208 Duecento Otto and Moët Hennessy Diageo will be coming on board as the F&B partners for the event while interior style-setters Halo Asia will outfit the space with their iconic furniture.
“We think Sheung Wan is Hong Kong’s equivalent to the New York Meatpacking District in its early days. With its hipster vibe and budding art and design scene, it seems a natural home for the city’s first charitable pop-up club and we are delighted to support such an exciting event and give back to the local community,” says Yenn Wong, owner of 208 Duecento Otto.
The Quintessentially Foundation focuses on improving the lives of disadvantaged local communities worldwide. Proceeds from the table and bar sales from the three club nights will go to supporting Hong Kong causes, including the Ambassadors of Design, Changing Young Lives Foundation, Hong Kong Cancer Fund, Hong Kong Eating Disorders Association, Mother’s Choice, Pathways, Room to Read, The Women’s Foundation and Variety Hong Kong.
The party will take place from Thursday 14th October to Saturday 16th October 2010. Doors open at 9.30pm. For guestlist entry, please email: boujis@quintessentiallyfoundation.org with your name and email address, or call +852 3758 7416.
