This Halloween, you can celebrate the spookiest night of the year Carnaby style.
Head to the Newburgh
Quarter on Thursday 27 October, where chocolate emporium Choccywoccydoodah will be hosting a spooky soiree
from 4-7pm. There will be plenty of free activities including ghostly
competitions, monster mashing and creative pumpkin painting. You can visit the glitter
station and add some sparkle to your beard and eyebrows or enjoy face painting
while you listen to a killer soundtrack from DJ Winston. Chocolate prizes will
be given to the most imaginative and impressive guests on the night, so make sure
you dress to impress!
The party will continue at Carnaby Burger Co. with an exclusive Halloween
menu featuring Smoked Bacon Bloody Mary’s and bone-sucking Vampire Ribs. You can dress
as your favourite Halloween character and enjoy complimentary make-up, trick or
treat games and get stuck into a Giant Burger Challenge. Still peckish? Swing
by Shinola from 4pm-7pm for exclusive
Halloween-inspired Crosstown Doughnuts whilst you shop their new collection.
Do not forget to pop into Lomography, who will be hosting a workshop using the
Lomo'instant Wide camera to photograph the nights festivities in the Newburgh
Quarter. You can show up in Fancy Dress, and you may even win a prize for the best
costume! The workshop is £10 and included the loan of a lomo'instant wide
camera and a pack of film. You can pre-book by calling or visiting the store.
