It's taken a while to get this far for those who knew something was going on but here it is.
Hope all the UK ohana can come, the website will be up later today to buy tickets and the chance to win rum from Appleton.
Many Thanks to Sam Gambino for the fantastic Artwork
I forgot to say, due to space etc we are limited to only 200 tickets, so if you really want to come, get your tickets early in case they sell out ( which I hope they do)

Looks like the 're-'birth of Tiki in the UK.
I'll be there, along with some friends. I'll get my tickets as soon as the website's up.
Cheers Cheekytiki

Nice one Cheekytiki.
I'll be there too! With my kane, Kon-Hemsby
This is going to be one fantastic night, food, drink, music.
I'm swaying already to the London tropical vibe that will be THE LONDON LUAU.

Sounds like a great event, wish I could be there, but at that time I will have to be satisfied with the Munich Trader Vic's.
Close, but not close enough.

The website is running now so you can buy tickets.
Still a bits to be added.
We are going to have a weekly draw on ticket numbers every week until the event to win a bottle of Appleton VX

We have drawn the first winner of a bottle of Appleton VX!
Although Kon Hemsby in his desperation for Rum booked many tickets, it actually went to another member here - Chrisc!
Well done Chris.
Another Bottle up this week

I don't get to this part of Tiki Central much, I should try and read more. So much going on, I haven't a clue.
Wish I could be there, I'll be just a few short months late though. It's going to be a midnite Christmas in London this year, hopefully Christmas Eve dinner at Vic's. The London Luau looks like a blast.
That's one top-notch poster as well. Stellar work.
midnite

That sounds like its going to be a big big night...but beware of Kyle from the Fisherman Vibraphonic Trio. He's the Tasmanian Devil of Tiki, I also think of him as kind of a Maria from the Sound of Music. Good Luck with the event.

Just spoke to Appleton Rum, and it seems we have scored a massive coup for The London Luau.
This is how the story goes
They have managed to get hold of some Rum for us from the same Barrel that provided the Rum that Trader Vic himself created the original Mai Tai.
One lucky person next Saturday will get to try the closest possible drink to his original Recipe.
This rum is apparently rarer than hens teeth, you cannot buy it, and very few people in the world have ever tasted it.
We promise TVs won't use Mai Tai pre mix
