Join RC&C for an Urban Block Party This Saturday, Nov 4

With winter fast approaching there are only a few weeks left to enjoy being outside before the bitter cold arrives. So, what better way to see off the last of the warm weather than with an Urban Block Party!

Brought to you by Roots Café & Culture (RC&C) in partnership with the Beijinger, The Local, Great Leap and SLAVNO it's sure to be a party you don’t want to miss! The outdoor shindig will take place at Shang8 Design + Creative Park on Saturday, Nov 4 from 3-10pm but the fun doesn’t stop there! It’ll be followed up by an after party at The Local for those wanting to continue on into the wee hours.  

Promising to be a whole day packed with amazing food, drinks, music and more, tickets are only RMB 55 and include a free Great Leap beer when you arrive and a 50 percent off Great Leap food voucher. At the party, Great Leap will be offering up some of their signature brews like Grapefruit Flood and Urban Forest.  

Also serving drinks will be The Local, with a range of cocktails which they’ll be making on site. Along with drinks, they’ll have an array of delicious food like burgers, sandwiches, wraps, and more. If you’ve got more of a hankering for barbecue then be sure to check out Ribs by D, who will satisfy all of your meaty cravings with their BBQ Pork Ribs, Lamb Chops, and Pork and Beef Boerewors (South African sausages). 

For those looking for more of a quick bite or snack, then meat experts SLAVNO have you covered with their Slavic-style hotdogs. SLAVNO won’t just be bringing food to the party though, they’ll also be bringing prizes with a lucky draw and a tug-of-war competition. 

No block party would be complete without some banging tunes and RC&C has a stellar line-up of four DJs to keep you bopping throughout the day: DJ Ennoe-Alpha, DJ Dima, DJ Jack and Dean the DJ. They’ll be playing everything from Hip Hop to Afro, Techno to House, and of course, Latin. 

DJ Ennoe-Alpha will also be keeping the tunes going at The Local for the after party, which will run from 10pm 'til late. As an added bonus drink specials will be running until midnight as well.
