Diversity (event)
While we have run differnet types of events our flagship event was called ‘Diversity’. An exciting and cosmopolitan event, it was dedicated to showcasing upcoming artists across the spectrum of music, spoken word and fashion.
Diversity History:
Previous residencies have included the former ‘Pharmacy restaurant and bar’ of Nottinghill Gate that was designed by Damien Hurst, the trendy ‘Nell’s’ (now called Mahiki) of Mayfair and the stylish ‘Destino’ of Piccadilly (now called Gaucho).
The emphasis of ‘Diversity’ was on quality. No matter the style, place or time; if it’s good and in good taste the event aimed to promote, entertain and provide exposure. With a selection of great acts performing live on the night; it’s everything, it’s anything from Soul to Jazz-Funk, Blues to Acoustica and much, much more.
