This event is for Cambridge Society of London members only. If you are not currently a member, please visit www.camsoclon.org to learn more and to join.

The Clubs of Pall Mall and St James’s are some of the glories of London, though open only to Club members and their guests. The Oxford and Cambridge Club is no exception, and so we are particularly pleased that at the end of our year we can again invite our Society members to a special evening hosted by Club member and ex-Society Chairman David Peace.

For the evening of Monday 16 December, from 6.30pm to 10.30pm, we have the magnificent chandeliered Smoking Room (and no, you can’t!) and the format is, well, just meet, drink, chat and end the Society’s year on a really happy note. What the Club elegantly terms 'Gourmet Nibbles' will be yours, together with a voucher for the first drink of your choice (wine, beer, soft) followed by a cash bar. We have found from previous events that this is the best way to keep our ticket prices manageable for all, while allowing each of us to imbibe what and how much we need. We will be celebrating, meeting and making friends, and generally moving in a jolly way towards the end of the year with Society members of all ages and backgrounds who have two (at least) things in common: London living or working, and Cambridge University. What better way to bring people together?

Dress code and standards: The Club, like the others in St James’s, maintains the standards that its members approve, and so our Chairman will have his wrist slapped if the Club has to turn away men without jacket and tie, or anyone in jeans, flip flops (in December?!) or similar garb. Ladies should dress with 'commensurate formality'.

Bags and luggage must be left at Reception, phones turned off or set to 'silent', and no photography is allowed anywhere in the Clubhouse other than in the Smoking Room. In this way the Clubs retain their unique charm, and this is something to be experienced.

If you haven’t been there before, join us for this very special evening! And if you have, come and enjoy it all again!
