If the thought of classic SEGA games like Pac-Man, Street Fighter II, and Sonic the Hedgehog gives you that warm and fuzzy feeling, then we’ve just found your next must-attend event in London.
The lift at London’s Hyatt Place City East frequently becomes a time machine of some sort, as every month, the hotel’s gorgeous PocketSquare Skyline Bar transforms into a nostalgic wonderland for a night of vintage video games entitled Sky High Retro Gaming.
Picture this: you’re perched high above the city enjoying a drink or two, as well as those sweeping views of London’s skyline, all while partaking in the pixelated glory of the best video games from the 80s and 90s. The bar is decked out with retro CRT TVs and massive projector screens, bringing these timeless games to life like never before.
Whether you’re reliving your youth and treating that inner child, or are discovering these classic games for the first time, this event is an unbeatable combo of treacly nostalgia and luxury.
It’s not all about the gaming though – the vibe is perfect for socialising, with plenty of like-minded gamers, competitions, and a curated soundtrack, making it perfect for date night or a fun get-together with the besties.
And let’s not forget about the drinks; sip on your favourite cocktail as you conquer victory on Mortal Kombat, or guide Sonic through another round of golden rings. From classic drinks and crafty cocktails to more unique offerings, you’re truly spoilt for choice here when it comes to getting your drink on!
Sky High Retro Gaming takes place on select Tuesdays at Hyatt Place London City East’s rooftop bar PocketSquare. General Admission costs £9, however, there are group packages and a Private Retro Gaming Area available to purchase too. To book your spot and get your tickets, click here or the link below.
