Queen of Hoxton launches winter rooftop riad inspired by the Moroccan Medina
We’re excited to be going down to Tangier town tonight for the launch of Queen of Hoxton‘s winter rooftop launch. Inspired by the Moroccan Medina, the venue is set to be transformed into a little taste of Marrakech in London for the season. The rooftop bar will feature a mini-riad inside a custom-designed wigwam, replete with Baboushe slippers, ceramic tiles, twinkling lanterns, cushions and drapes.
Outside the wigwam itself, the rooftop bar has been completed revamped to replicate the sensations of the iconic Jardin Majorelle. We’re expecting blue walls, hanging plants, cacti in abundance – and swathes of Saint Laurent!
The Morrocan Medina inspired rooftop was orchestrated by Fables, the festival production team behind the notoriously decadent Secret Garden Party (RIP).
