The Hari, the elegant South Kensington hotel, transforms its spaces each Saturday from 14th November through 19th December into a gathering point for festive discovery. The programme unfolds as a succession of complimentary workshops and seasonal celebrations, each one crafted in collaboration with a selection of the hotel’s preferred local businesses and makers.

The calendar opens on 14th November with carol singers and festive treats, an afternoon beginning at four o’clock and continuing until six. The 21st brings a session of festive glam with Be More Beam, an opportunity to explore seasonal makeup techniques in the same timeframe. As the weeks progress, each Saturday brings its own character and focus, drawing on the particular expertise of partner businesses within London’s creative community.

The hotel’s staircase descends beneath a Christmas tree dressed in deep cobalt blue and gold spheres, tied with ribbon in matching shades, while a golden star crowns the arrangement. Warm lighting catches the metallic finishes overhead, casting the scene in honeyed tones. This setting serves as the backdrop to the weekend gatherings, where guests move between the hotel’s layered interiors.
