THE VIBE
Expect a buzzing atmosphere, a champagne reception and a night at the circus.
The Troxy is a Grade II-listed Art Deco music venue on Commercial Road in Stepney, London. Built as a cinema in 1933, it closed in 1960 and became a training school for the London Opera Centre. In the 1980s the building was used as a bingo hall, and the Troxy was converted to a live events space in 2006.
Enjoy the show with free-flowing drinks and a three-course sit-down dinner, followed by dancing into the night!
