Overview

The Clock Hotel is going all out for Negroni Week 2017, joining forces with Campari to transform their top floor balcony into an 'Italian paradiso' for a cocktail party on Thursday, June 8. The opulent bash will centre around a sub-zero version of the cocktail — which will flow through an enormous Campari ice sculpture throughout the evening — and a giant Negroni that will be filled with not only alcohol, but a burlesque performer as well. Apart from the requisite drinks, a three-piece band will be on-hand to entertain guests, while Italian treats like fresh pastas and a massive charcuterie board will be yours for the grazing.

Of course, you can't have a Negroni party without the cocktail and the Surry Hills stalwart is turning out a special menu for the occasion. On offer will be a classic version of the cocktail, the Negroni Royale with elderflower and Prosecco, and the Breakfast in Rome, which will come topped with mini toast. They've also created a non-Negroni option, a smoked chocolate boulevardier with cacao-infused bourbon, Campari, sweet vermouth, chocolate bitters and cacao smoke. Three cocktails are included in the ticket price of $50.

If you can't make the party, the cocktails will be on offer at The Clock for the duration of Negroni Week, which runs from June 5-11. Plus, $1 from every Negroni sold will be donated to Oz Harvest — so you'll be doing some good with those booze bucks too.
