What To Do This Weekend 28.10.21
WORKOUT WITH QUEEN BÉY: Peloton x Beyoncé
We’re excited for this. Peloton has created a workout series with Beyoncé – tune into the fitness platform for 72 hours of content and 17 classes. Available to watch on demand, classes come with a special Beyoncé soundtrack featuring her most iconic songs, including Single Ladies, Love On Top, Formation and Drunk In Love. New daily on-demand classes are also available where you can curate your own workout using Peloton’s core disciplines, including ‘Tread’, bootcamp, barre and strength training. The best part? You don’t need a Peloton to get involved – simply head to your local gym to find a bike, then download the Peloton App which new members can try for a 30-day free trial.

GO OUT OUT: Tabū
Nightclub Tabū opens its doors just in time for Halloween. Taking over Mahiki’s former site in Mayfair, the venue has been given a slick £3.5m refurb, with a Japanese-inspired cocktail lounge and edgy ‘Tokyo Nightclub’. At this cool location – where the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake and Rihanna have partied over the years – resident DJs will set the vibe with techno and house tunes. Grab a couple of cocktails or celebrate over a bottle of champagne.

VISIT THIS POP-UP: Max Mara, Liberty
We rarely need an excuse to visit Liberty, but were excited to hear Max Mara has opened a pop-up stall on the ground floor to celebrate its 70th anniversary. Known for its clean and classic silhouettes, the brand’s tailored coats and chunky knits regularly top our wish lists here at SL. During the pop-up you’ll be able to shop the 2021 anniversary capsule collection, which features reissued items from iconic past collections, as well as newly designed items for autumn/winter. In store until Wednesday 10th November, stop by Liberty’s Beauty Hall or Christmas shop to get into the festive spirit.

MEET THE GIRLS: Cointreau Margarita Terraces
Looking for a new weekend drinking spot? Cointreau has teamed up with a few of our favourite venues to create cool margarita terraces where you can enjoy cocktails surrounded by beautiful autumnal decorations – think show-stopping pumpkin patches and floral displays. Book a table at Bluebird Chelsea or Bluebird White City to try the ‘Purple Margarita’ made with black tea or the ‘Cointreau Fashioned’ featuring single malt whisky and chocolate liqueur. You can even join a pumpkin carving class at Bluebird White City on Saturday 30th October at 11am to create some spooky Halloween decorations. Plus, until Sunday 7th November, Granary Square Brasserie in King’s Cross is celebrating the Day of the Dead festival with a range of Mexican-inspired margaritas, while Hay’s Galleria in London Bridge will be serving classic Cointreau margaritas alongside retro boardgames.

GO TO THE CINEMA: The Nowhere Inn
This new film gets a one-off London screening at the Barbican tomorrow night (8.45pm). Written, produced and starring friends and musicians Annie Clark (St Vincent) and Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney), The Nowhere Inn is a metafictional account of two women making a documentary. As the pair battle through their creative ideas, they quickly discover they’re both unpredictable and incredibly difficult to work with, which not only derails the project, but also highlights several cracks in their friendship. Look out for a Dakota Johnson cameo.
