If you're up for the challenge of throwing the party of the year, you need to check out London's self-proclaimed 'ultimate' events venue: Ricco London. Situated near Kensington, Ricco can cater for almost any kind of event, from birthday parties to client dinners, brand launches to immersive experiences.
The venue offers two styles of events: private dinners and club nights. The private dining space offers capacity for a minimum of 20 guests and up to 50 seated, or 60 with a buffet, with availability from Monday through to Sunday, and late licences available on special request. Private dinners start with a fabulous cocktail reception complete with canapes and bowl food, before guests sit down for their culinary journey.
Ricco provides catering in house with a selection of customisable menus. Guests are invited to choose from starters such as burrata with vine-ripened tomatoes and sweet cherries, alongside crostacei soup with lobster, prawns and crab in a tomato soup, or bresaola carpaccio with wild rocket and parmesan. Mains look like pan-fried sea bass, indulgent truffle pizza or grilled baby chicken with vegetables, finished by sweet treats like classic tiramisu or creme brulee.
After dinner, the party is just getting going with incredible entertainment from live singers to fire performers, and then the DJ kicks in with the best tunes until the early hours, with carriages around 3am. You're also welcome to take over the club section of the venue, which ups the capacity to an impressive 140. Here, there's a DJ booth, dedicated bar, surround sound system and cloak room to ensure that your night goes off without a hitch.
Fancy trying before you buy? Ricco also does themed nights that you're welcome to buy a ticket for and watch the show unfold. The in-house calendar is full of burlesque shows and dinners, which give a great taster.
