Homemade Sessions with Douniah at Soho House Berlin
In the latest instalment of our Homemade Sessions series, which aims to support emerging talents from the community, we welcomed Douniah to Soho House Berlin. The Moroccan-German singer-songwriter was joined by High John, creating beats for her neo-soul performance.
Christmas House Ball at Soho House Hong Kong
To see off 2022, Soho House Hong Kong hosted a celebration of the city’s ballroom scene with the founder of Voguing Hong Kong, KenKen, hosting his annual Christmas ball. More than 200 members and guests attended, along with some of the Soho House team for an evening of partying and wild festive outfits on the runway. Prizes of up to HK$5,000 were awarded to the best performances of the night, and the evening wrapped up a year of great moments at the House. ‘Voguing is about family, love and acceptance. Thank you all for supporting Hong Kong ballroom,’ KenKen concluded.
American rapper Benny the Butcher took to the stage at Soho House New York. Part of the music collective Griselda, he invited guests to celebrate member Mitchell Gaddis’s birthday and the iconic year that hip-hop turns 50.
