Monty’s Parties for the Unattached: Movember
They are the clever souls who host the ultimate parties for the unattached. Not your average cringefest ‘mix and mingle’ with soggy crisps… no. Think more roller girls, traditional shaving, kissing booth’s, music, hair cuts, (for the boys) raffles with amazing prizes and whisky. They also claim to attract the hottest singles roaming this fair land we call London town.
Monty’s is the brainchild of a 30-something single lady, who’s sociable, self employed, lives in London and was bored to the back teeth (where on earth is that expression from?) with internet dating and bad singles’ parties. She put on her thinking beret and set about creating Monty’s, who now host parties all over London in some of the more unusual venues the city has hidden up its jumper.
They collaborate with events collectives, artists, performers, cooks and musicians and all of this creativity gives their parties excitement, flair and vavavoom… and gives their guests plenty to chat about too. (Conversation starters galore. Tick.)
This Thursday – 31st Oct – Monty’s is hosting a very special party at The Paper Dress in Shoreditch to raise stacks of cash for Movember which, in case you don’t know, is a charity that aims to raise funds and awareness for prostate and testicular cancer each November.
All you need to do is, erm, be single, buy a ticket in advance from their website and lastly, grab a wing buddy of the opposite sex (just so they know they have an even number of dons and dolls.) Here’s the event on Facebook too…
“Come with a mate, leave with a date” said Time Out.
Nothing says it clearer than that.
