Words: Holly
Whilst most of us spend Sunday nights curled up on sofas trying to beat the Sunday night blues, A-List celebrities of this world do things a whole lot differently. Former footballer, David Beckham, welcomed a host of celebrity friends to the opening night of The Haig Club’s week-long residency at Wellington Arch. The pop-up bar is described as a “modern interpretation” of the British private member clubs that featured in the brand’s original “clubman series” of advertisements in the 1920s.
The unique interior of the pop-up has been designed by Amanda Sheppard, whilst the food menu has been created by Brett Graham, Mike Robinson and Alex Harper, of the Michelin starred Harwood Arms. Signature cocktails served at Haig Club London have been crafted by drinks consultancy firm Sweet and Chilli in collaboration with Haig Club global brand ambassador Ewan Gunn.
Idris Elba supported his good friend David Beckham, who was found side by side with his supportive wife for most of the evening. David Beckham was also joined by Tom Cruise and Guy Ritchie, the latter directing the most recent Haig Club campaign.
