LONDON — Annabel’s, the private member’s club in London’s Mayfair, unveiled its 2023 holiday decor during a fete Tuesday evening.
Created in collaboration with The Caring Family Foundation’s Food from the Heart campaign, the club’s facade was reimagined as a hot air balloon, complete with glowing string lights.

Designed by the Birley Club’s creative director Tatiana Kharchylava, celebrity guests including Will Poulter, Poppy Delevingne and Leonie Hanne gathered in Berkeley Square to watch the installation’s lights be turned on.
In a surprise performance, The Kingdom Choir sang “Joy to the World” and “Go Tell It to the Mountain” on the steps of Annabel’s.
Guests moved inside for dinner, where the halls were decked with glittering faux floral arrangements and lit up trees.
The decor had a charitable bent, marking Annabel’s partnership with the charitable foundation, which aims to reduce child poverty and food insecurity by providing nutritious meals to those in need.
To date, 2.3 million meals have been delivered.
This is the third facade the club has unveiled since reopening earlier this year.
In honor of Halloween, a masked installation with lit up red eyes and a feathered decoration hung above the famous black doors on Berkeley Square, taking cues from Venetian carnivals.
In September, Annabel’s celebrated its annual facade for World Amazon Day featuring plants, flowers and birds of the Amazon.
“The Annabel’s facade draws attention to our beautiful rainforest being engulfed by flames to depict the reality of what the Amazon is facing, it serves as a stark message that it is in great danger,” said Patricia Caring, co-executive chairwoman of The Birley Clubs and cofounder of The Caring Family Foundation, in an interview.
