1920's Party at Driftwood Kitchen

Join Driftwood Kitchen in Laguna Beach for an exclusive roaring 1920s themed party on Thursday, July 24 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. featuring a live performance by Addie Hamilton along with her band. (Addie has garnered over 1 million YouTube hits in just one year’s time, for her cover of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines,” which you can watch here.)

This unique Throwback Thursday evening will feature a speakeasy feel, overlooking the ocean in a beautiful setting, where vintage meets modern in this classy Laguna Beach establishment.

The new Stateroom Bar within Driftwood Kitchen is the perfect place to enjoy artfully and creatively blended classic cocktails, with an emphasis on bourbons and whiskeys, and it still embraces the feel of the former home library of old Hollywood character actor, Slim Summerville. Vintage attire is encouraged.  

For more information or for ticket inquiries, contact Driftwood Kitchen at 949.715.7700.

Driftwood is at 619 Sleepy Hollow Lane in Laguna Beach.
