Mirrorballs, flares and a live dhol. Desi Soc close out the term at the SU Bar
Friday 11 December · SU Bar · 8pm - late
The last late license of term is going full 70s Bollywood. Desi Society are taking over the SU Bar with a night that’s half Studio 54, half Bombay film set: mirrorballs, flares, and a soundtrack that slides from Western disco into desi classics and back again without missing a beat.
Get there early. From 8pm, Desi Soc are running a bhangra workshop. You don’t need any experience, just shoulders. At 9pm the dhol arrives, and you get to try everything you’ve just learned to a live beat.
Then the decks take over. A guest DJ goes first, and DJ Society carry the fusion through to close.
At the bar there’s a one-night-only cocktail, plus a Spicy Mango-Mint Mojito for anyone going alcohol-free. Both are built on rose, lime, chaat masala and black salt!
