You’re invited to the party of the summer

The party of the summer returns following a sell-out season in 2023. Don't miss your chance to be on the guest list at the hottest club in town.

Step into a dazzling world where the glitz of the 1920s collides with the energy of the 2020s in a bold reimagining of F Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby. Prepare for a thrilling night of cabaret, variety and live music.

The Green Light is the city’s most sought-after nightspot, owned by the enigmatic Gatsby himself. Sip on a drink with a twist as you’re swept into a world of high-flying aerial feats, soaring vocals, hypnotic choreography and glittering costumes. 

GATSBY is an innovative creation by the masterminds behind the acclaimed L’Hotel. After our previous sold-out season, don't miss your chance to be on the guest list this time. 

There are two ways to experience the party. Choose a VIP cabaret table and enjoy a 1920s-inspired canapé platter and cocktail served by the cast, with table side drink service throughout: an up-close invitation to mix and mingle with the club’s most intriguing characters. Sample menu (PDF).

Or opt for floor or mezzanine seating, where you can sit back and take in the full spectacle. While those tickets don’t include food or beverages, you’re welcome to bring in drinks purchased from the venue bars.

Dress to dazzle your host as Gatsby returns to reclaim the night. Step into the Green Light this summer where the champagne flows and whispers of the past still dance in the air.
