Agora Social Club replaces LEON at The Dubai EDITION.
With the season of slowing down upon us, it’s time to seek refuge under the shade and gather with friends and colleagues at Agora — almost like the Ancient Greeks did.
For the uninitiated, an ‘agora’ was a space in ancient Greek cities that served as a meeting ground for the various activities of citizens, with the name referring to both the assembly of the people as well as the physical setting. Not only was an agora considered a typical feature of social life, but it was often located in the middle of the city. And that’s exactly why Agora Social Club will debut at The Dubai EDITION in Downtown Dubai this summer.
Described as the perfect fusion of tradition and modernity, the stylish new cocktail bar is setting out to be an alluring social club that promises to elevate the lounge experience by combining fresh, revolutionary libations with a transcending music scene. We’re told that the venue aims to attract those seeking an imaginative, detail-oriented beverage experience while engaging in stimulating conversations in a visually striking and immersive environment.
Bartender Simone Caporale, who needs no introduction in the world of mixology, will be helming the bar. Famed for his whimsical concoctions, he will create innovative and unique blends shaken to perfection. For those who prefer a more botanical evening, Agora Social Club will specialise in gin and tonics. Using only the freshest ingredients and topping off with decorative glasses and garnish, the venue will offer a range of internationally acclaimed gins to cater to all palates.
Upon launching, Agora Social Club will host up to 100 guests, its refined and expansive space thoughtfully designed to offer a sophisticated ambience. The venue showcases exquisite interiors complemented by a live DJ set, creating a captivating atmosphere that sets the tone for savouring the selection of expertly crafted cocktails and Mediterranean-inspired sharing plates.
Agora Social Club will be open from 6pm to 1am Monday through Thursday, and from 6pm to 3am on weekends.
