Bloom After Dark is the season's opening party at Crane Bar & Lounge, a one-night-only celebration where an overgrown garden comes alive after dark. Think candlelight, wild florals, immersive moments and a subtle Halloween edge that deepens as the evening unfolds.
The event is curated by Chris Kontos, the soundtrack curated by DJ Minx. Ease into the evening from 5pm with DJ Edd Fisher, then enjoy a complimentary round of house beverages at 7pm, with Harvey Miller (Client Liaison) on the decks from 7pm-10pm and Cocobutterjpg carrying the energy through until midnight.
Dress code: after dark attire with a touch of haunted elegance.
