The ultimate festive drinks experience has arrived in London, as the lastminute.com London Eye announces its new Christmas Pub Pod. Created in partnership with Absolut Vodka, the immersive experience will offer guests tasty tipples on tap while soaring 135m above the London skyline.
Launching from 11th November the Christmas Pub Pod will see one of the iconic South Bank attraction’s 32 pods given a glittering makeover, transforming it into a fully functioning pub complete with cocktail bar, Christmas cracker decorations and a festive frosting of snow.
Absolut has specially created two signature vodka cocktails – the Gingerbread Espresso Martini and Cinnamon Passion Fruit Martini – exclusively for the London Eye experience. Both cocktails are inspired by original recipes created in London’s Soho, visible from the wheel.
Guests will enjoy a bespoke Absolut Christmas cocktail along with a selection of craft beers and wines, whilst taking in sparkling 360° views of the capital lit up for the holidays.
Sunny Jouhal, General Manager at The lastminute.com London Eye, said: “London truly comes to life during the festive season and is one of the world’s most special cities to soak up the Christmas spirit. We are delighted to offer this unique and magical experience to Londoners and visitors to the city. With delicious creations from our partners at Absolut and breathtaking views of the capital, the Christmas Pub Pod is set to be one of the most unique fixtures on the capital’s festive agenda.”
The Christmas Pub Pod launches on 11th November with daily 30-minute rotations. From Friday to Sunday, there are six experiences from midday ’til 5pm. From Monday to Thursday, experiences run at 3pm and 5pm. Tickets cost £57.50pp, including two drinks and Fast Track entrance.*
