A secret, underground supper club might seem about as culinarily avant-garde as an organic cupcake these days (and as secretive as Bob Quick's filing), but an evening of demonstrational dining at Full House in Shoreditch offers the opportunity to go away with something more than an potential bout of gastroenteritis. From the moment you open the door to the hitherto undisclosed location, it's clear that this is no ordinary dinner party you are attending - stepping off the street crosses the threshold into a culinary wonderland that would make even the deity Blumenthal doff his shiny pate in reverence, with the entire property having been overhauled to reveal quirky details and a truly novel environment that you really do have to see to believe. more ›

You don’t need a tent or wellies - it’s not that kind of festival. This is a one-day event where a single wrist band will give you access to music and art performances in Dalston’s most alternative venues; including a UV interactive exhibition in an underground World War II bunker and theatrical synchronised swimming at the Arcola Theatre. more ›
