Black Christmas (annual one-off party)

 

Rating: A

Date: December 2019

Last Saturday, we attended the 3rd annual ‘Black Christmas’ at The Mezzanine in Downtown Manhattan and if you weren’t there, it’s safe to say that you missed out. From the gorgeous venue to the extensive open bar, @blackchristmas_⬀ was the place to be last weekend. We have attended this event since its inception and can attest to the fact that this has been the best one yet. We can always count on the hosts to attract a consistent crowd of beautiful and accomplished black/brown people in one space to celebrate success. Although this year, a few distinct elements to note are the Toy Drive, tasteful venue, diverse food menu and high quality photo booth. Swipe for a full review, the official recap video and The Guest List’s personal footage from the event. Music by @billionspapi⬀ and food by @goodeats_catering⬀
