Golden Bee is a cocktail bar in Shoreditch, London and roof terrace. During the week, Golden Bee is a relaxing lounge bar in London and a perfect venue to wind down and enjoy some post-work drinks with colleagues and friends. Relax around the fire-pit on our rooftop bar and lounge on our sofas with a cocktail in hand taking in the views of bustling Shoreditch.

On Friday and Saturday nights we are always a popular cocktail bar in Shoreditch location to dance the night away until the early hours! On weekends our cocktail bar is transformed into a club with a fantastic atmosphere. The dancefloor is always busy and the DJ keeps the party going playing quality commercial house music until 3am.

Performances to Remember: The Royal Opera House 

In 1871, our opening year, They staged just 36 shows. Now they host almost 400 events in the auditorium and many hundreds more around the Royal Albert Hall every year.

The must go events during the summer are the annual BBC Proms which run from 14 July – 9 September 2017 for 8 weeks of concerts, talks, workshops, family events and more, ending with the famous Last Night of the Proms at London’s Royal Albert Hall.

The scope of the Proms has increased enormously since 1895, however Henry Wood’s concept for the season remains largely unaltered: to present the widest possible range of music, performed to the highest standards, to large audiences. And promenading in the Royal Albert Hall’s arena continues to be a central feature, lending the Proms its unique, informal atmosphere.The Proms celebrated its 123rd season in 2017 yet still remains true to its original aim: to present the widest range of music, performed to the highest standards, to large audiences.

We have so many  evening dresses for hire in London so you’re spoilt for choice – from our Red Painted Lady by Beulah to hire in London to our Glamorous Jumpsuit.
