Santa’s back, baby! This November, London’s immersive Christmas dive bar, HUMBUG, is back in town and, this time it promises to be even bigger, even better and even more raucous than before. Shaking things up for the festive season, the team at HUMBUG will be firing up the snow machines and sprinkling a little mischief into the magic at the Old Truman Brewery in Brick Lane from 14 November – 31 December.

 

Revellers are invited to step into Christmas and Santa’s cherished watering hole where an unbelievable world of live performances, sing-a-longs, games, immersive storytelling and festivities awaits along with an increasingly weary Santa who needs cheering up … and fast!

Santa’s been working overtime for centuries and he’s hit breaking point so, of course, he’s back at his favourite dive bar where Christmas cheer (and booze) is available on tap. Along with some of Santa’s closest friends, guests will be tasked with bringing their Christmas A-game, ready to help the big man get his groove back and, as long as they do, everyone will be rewarded with an epic party complete with confetti canons, merriment and festive surprises. 

 

Double the size for this year, guests will be able to enjoy brand-new rooms and spaces including a hectic mailroom, Santa’s ‘Grotto’, a shrine dedicated to queen of Christmas Mariah Carey and a festive-themed beer can bowling alley. Along the way, guests will encounter a line-up of the finest cabaret from HUMBUG regulars including Daphne the waitress, Rudy the landlord, Howard the mailman and the big man himself. With space for over 200 guests per night, it’s the ultimate festive knees up with the greatest holiday tunes of all time (step up Mariah), live on-stage entertainment, a massive hit of nostalgia and an epic house band playing every night, all set against a backdrop of colourful Christmas lights, dazzling neon’s, mistletoe and festive memorabilia – too much tinsel? There’s no such thing at HUMBUG!

Throughout the night, guests can sip on festive tipples from HUMBUG’s ‘Naughty or Nice’ cocktail menu including the ‘Bah F*****g Humbug’ – rum, chocolate liqueur, oat milk, crushed Oreos & whipped cream, topped with a mince pie – before refuelling in the spacious outdoor courtyard where they can tuck into a full menu of festive-themed street food from Bang Bang Burger including an epic Christmas burger, festive bites and desserts with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options.
