Festival & Gig Friends

**We don’t do boring Wednesdays... and so on 4th March, to spice up your midweek, we’ll be heading to Vauxhall for an adrenaline-fuelled evening of social fun.** Yep and for this one, we're off to **[Activate](https://playactivate.com/how-it-works)** \- one of London’s most exciting new venues\, packed with high\-energy games and immersive team challenges\. To kick things off, we’ll meet at a nearby pub so you can grab a drink, get to know your fellow competitors before the main event of the evening. Inside the venue, you’ll find 9 high-tech game rooms, each offering a **range of games and challenges** designed to test your speed, skill, memory, strategy and teamwork. You’ll be grouped into teams of 4, and in each game room, you’ll have the option to work together to beat the challenge or go head-to-head against your teammates to see who comes out on top. Your electronic wristband tracks your score throughout the session - both your personal tally and your team’s total, and your points can even be redeemed for prizes. For each game, there are also a range of levels to test yourselves against and you can replay any you enjoyed, or want to try again. And best all, whilst an evening at Activate could typically cost you £25pp... we've managed to secure an exclusive discount - **so this whole evening is just £14.95pp!** It should be a great evening night of fast-paced fun - but as always, **spots are limited**, so grab yours while you can! **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** We will be starting the evening at a nearby pub at **7:30pm** to give you a chance to meet and with your fellow 20s and 30s. However we'd kindly ask you arrive **no later than 7:55pm,** so that we can head over to the venue together and get checked in, ahead of the experience. **Meet Point -** The Riverside, House, 5 Saint George Wharf Hamilton, London SW8 2LE ([https://maps.app.goo.gl/WbQXsupv7DTypKcT8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/WbQXsupv7DTypKcT8)) **Closest Tube stations**: Vauxhall (5 min walk), Pimlico (15 min walk) **Start Time:** 7:30 PM **End Time:** 10:00 PM \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- **JOIN THE COMMUNITY** Set up in November 2021, the project was set up to help 20s and 30s in London meet, connect and hopefully build lifelong friendships. To help make this happen, we also host all kinds of events from free social walks, games evenings, day trips, social events, activity nights to picnics.

If you’re artistic and creative — or were always that kid who dreamed of working in exciting sexi professional worlds of entertainment, fashion, music or the performing arts — then this one’s exclusively for you! An insider showbiz and entertainment walk led by someone who’s lived inside the industry - a radio music founder, presentator and club DJ, a former international journalist for the biggest global News Agency, an advertising / media agency executive, a red-carpet luxury fashion brand strategist and a failed boy band muscian (I still got the spiked hair though!). So expect stories told with passion and authenticity. This 90 mins backstage wander will take you straight through London’s creative arts & entertainment industry showbiz bloodstream. We’re talking broadcasting nerve centres, global pop stars, legendary stages, Hollywood hideouts, iconic comedy clubs, ad agencies that won general elections, recording studios, fashion designers, radio powerhouses, and the secret corners where reputations are negotiated over overpriced cocktails — all set against the music soundtrack of a city that’s launched everything from Britpop to boybands to global club culture. You’ll hear where the UK’s biggest radio stations broke chart‑toppers, where stars of the film and stage made their name, how certain streets shaped entire genres, how comedians went from dingy basements to national treasures, and why London’s music scene has always been the city’s loudest, messiest, most influential creative engine in the world This free tour will unapologetically appeal to: * **Pop‑culture lovers** who treat celebrity interviews and album drops like sacred texts * **Creatives & media people** who love a bit of insider sparkle and know the difference between a PR stunt and a genuine cultural moment * **Culture lovers** who collect fun facts from music, film, art and can name their favourite live performance of all time * **People working in or consuming** **films, theatre, radio, music, comedy, TV, dance, media, advertising**, **performing arts** and everything in between * Anyone craving something authentic, fun, and just the right amount of chaotic fabulous Expect a crowd that gets excited about the things normal people pretend not to care about — iconic ad campaigns, legendary performances, scandalous headlines, radio gossip, film magic, music history, and the beautiful mess of how culture actually gets made. You’ll walk, you’ll laugh, you’ll learn things you absolutely did not expect, and you’ll leave feeling like you’ve unlocked a secret level of London — the one where the stories, the scandals, and the soundtracks all collide Lucas — The Entertainment Mongul

This is not a real Meetup - just an event to add people to the 'London Music Showcase' What'sApp group. I don't always have the chance to get numbers when we're out - Just message me your number if you want to join us 😄
