ENTERTAINMENT AND F&B
Open House had an incredible spread of F&B to feast on while listening to live music, exploring pop-up activations and soaking up the electric atmosphere — the perfect place to get a taste of the impeccable entertainment vibes ahead. Plus, the crew dipped in and out of the Sound Suite by W Hotels x FEMME HOUSE — a decompression zone where they could relax, reconnect and also master basic DJ'ing skills.
