The last bank holiday weekend of the year *sob* is on the horizon, so the pressure is on to make it count. What better way to toast to a glorious long weekend than with alfresco cocktails and live music?
Festival vibes are guaranteed at Electric Shuffle’s ‘Electric Summer Festival’ on Saturday 24th August. Picture this: a tropical terrace with beach-style huts serving limited-edition Casamigos tequila cocktails and crowd-pleasing sharing dishes (think Spicy Watermelon Margaritas and loaded waffle fries), and a live singer and saxophonist playing summer bangers throughout.
From 2-5pm Brazilian singer-songwriter Lucas Berloff will perform ultimate summer classics accompanied by a saxophonist live from the bar’s Cabot Square outdoor terrace.
Electric Shuffle is also offering a bottomless brunch package as part of its Electric Summer Festival. For £40, the session includes a Paloma slushie cocktail on arrival, a bottle of prosecco (or 4 beers) per person and two hours of unlimited sourdough pizza.
