The night began at Casa Madera, the restaurant at the bottom of 1 Hotel Toronto, where they served appetizers and Gatsby-themed cocktails exclusive to guests of Halo & Co. The handcrafted cocktails were dubbed Daisy’s Dreams and Spicy Old Sport. Garnished with 24K edible gold dust, serving as the perfect introduction to the Gatsby-themed night.

As guests arrived for the black-tie affair, they were welcomed with a polo match, followed by a red carpet leading to classic cars and photographers in front of the building. The entirety of the Rebel nightclub was adorned with high-class decorations, complemented by elegantly dressed attendees. The party extended to the Cabana pool bar, which offered a beautiful view of the city skyline reflecting on the lake.

Throughout the night, guests were entertained by a live band playing swing-era music and a fashion show featuring exquisite 1920s styles. The organizers of the gala executed the theme flawlessly, and it truly felt like we had been transported a century back in time.

The night was undoubtedly a success, with VIP tables selling out and many staying last call, the Gatsby Gala definitely has the potential to become an end-of-summer tradition for many.
