"BAILEYS is bringing its new innovative liquid Baileys Chocolat Luxe to life this September with Bar Chocolat - an immersive, multi-sensory experience inspired by the pleasure of chocolate.
Bar Chocolat, open to the public from 11th – 16th September in London, will see handpicked visionaries Bompas & Parr, Tabitha Denholm, Petra Storrs, Amelia Rope, Lou Hayter and Blanch & Shock join forces to create a sensory journey in taste.
The Covent Garden space will feature a large-scale edible art installation created by Artisan chocolatier Amelia Rope and stylist Petra Storrs, a Bompas & Parr scent and flavour experience, music director Tabitha Denholm’s first-ever video installation and a musical collaboration from pop ingénue Lou Hayter.
Petra Storrs - who has created memorable costumes and staging for the likes of Lady Gaga, Paloma Faith and various fashion shoots – will be creating an elaborately staged bar space that will provide a beautiful homage to the drinking experience, adding theatre to the first time that visitors sip Bompas & Parr’s Baileys Chocolat Luxe Rococo Serve.
Over the course of the six days, a series of ticketed events will see a unique experimental supperclub from Blanch & Shock take pride of place. Combining theatre and innovative cuisine, the three-course dinner laid directly on to the long U-shaped table will see 30 diners enjoy a series of gastronomic delights at each sitting.
Baileys Chocolat Luxe is the first time that real Belgian chocolate has been fused with alcohol in a way that delivers the multi-sensory experience of chocolate in a glass.
The public can enjoy free entry to Bar Chocolat the public by registering for limited tickets."
