Magic of Persia Equinox Party

 

MOP is thrilled to have kicked off the new year with family and friends, who gathered to celebrate with us at the Equinox Party on 15 March! 

 

The vibrant music, dynamic atmosphere and the glowing Haft Seen ushered 1393 in with a bang. Many thanks to all 500 of you who attended, making it an incredibly special and joyous evening!

Footage from the event can be seen on the 
Manoto+ Nowrouz Special.

This spectacular evening, open to all, was infused with a magical Persian twist. Guests indulged in an open bar, Persian finger food, and an amazing mix of Iranian and international house music.

 

Guests were greeted by the display of a beautiful Haft Seen, covered with the seven symbols of Spring. Two top DJs, and Europe's leading night club saxophonist and percussionist, rocked the night till the early hours of the morning, at the most stunning venue in the heart of Belgravia.
