Party-time! IKEA launches 'The IKEA House Party'

IKEA

2 min read Partner content

Swedish retailer IKEA is launching an immersive week-long series of evening house parties and daytime experiences (18th – 21st October) to celebrate 30 years of the brand being in the UK.


Billed as ‘The Ultimate House Party’, the central London immersive space features four floors that have been restored into era-defining barnstorming blowouts. The house will give all visitors a unique snapshot of IKEA’s impact in homes in 20th and 21st century living from the 80's to present day with a peek into the future.

Featuring enduring ‘design classics’, by day the house will take the form of a quintessential British living room from the last three decades and will even look forward to what the future holds. Visitors will enter a time warp into an immersive 'living home’ as IKEA looks back at landmark moments and our changing tastes.
By night, partygoers can step back in time and enjoy cocktails, canapes and banging music – able to celebrate life at home with music, TV and games as they party like it’s 1999 (89, 2009, 2019 and 2049). 

In the 80s experience nibble on a prawn cocktail and feast your eyes on bright floral patterns, while on the 90s floor indulge in House music, Brit pop and minimalist design. For fans of the noughties, try a Juicy Couture tracksuit on for size whilst upcycling furniture and on the top floor, revellers will get the opportunity to gaze into life at home 30 years in the future.
Completely free of charge, the nation’s party-goers can register their names on the guest list before the party kicks off, and attend the party of the decade (or three!).

In the daytime the house is open for all. No need to book as the doors to the past and future fly open from Midday – 6pm.
