INTUNE Drinks presents the final in a three month season of joyful, hilarious canalside comedy in aid of Hackney Night Shelter. Join us for our wild and playful Christmas Cabaret with the most inventive comedians around - characters, clowning, sketch, music, physical comedy, and the downright bizarre – while supporting your local charity.
All tickets £5 (proceeds from every ticket sale go to Hackney Night Shelter)
We are fundraising until Christmas for Hackney Night Shelter, whose vital work supports the local homeless community with warm beds, hot meals and support services all year round. Proceeds from every ticket sale will go to Hackney Night Shelter, with additional cash/card donations welcomed on the night, to reach our goal of £2000 by Christmas.
To add to the fun, INTUNE Drinks will design two signature cocktails using their unique and all-natural CBD mixers, to help us stay in the moment and laugh ourselves silly.
Featuring LUCY FARRETT, NEIL FROST, JULIA MASLI, CHEEKYKITA, LORNA SHAW and house band THE FLOP
Hosted by BITCHIN' SANTA

Big Wowie! was created by Nathan Lang (former host of experimental comedy night Lost Cabaret) to promote comedy, creativity and community in a safe, inclusive atmosphere that connects people and supports local charities. Our pro comedy cabaret showcases the most inventive comedians around - characters, clowning, sketch, music, physical comedy, and the downright bizarre. Since 2018 with Grow Hackney we have fundraised for Hackney Night Shelter, supporting the local homeless community. We celebrate playful and uplifting comedy, for the health and wellbeing of all.
HACKNEY NIGHT SHELTER provides a hot meal and a warm bed for homeless guests who would otherwise be out on the streets during the coldest winter months, and offers professional and holistic support to help guests rebuild their lives. Hackney Night Shelter is volunteer-led and has been opening doors to homeless people in the borough since 1993. It is run by Hackney Doorways (registered charity no. 1139183).

INTUNE was founded in January 2020 by Hannah, who discovered CBD whilst having treatment for breast cancer. Hannah brought together a group of taste experts to bring CBD to the world in great tasting drinks – to help people be present in the moment. INTUNE work hard to be as sustainable as possible, with their little CBD float (Cosmo, who is fully electric) making local deliveries, and using recyclable packaging to be as conscious of our local environment as possible. Harnessing the creative energy of Hackney, INTUNE think innovatively and push boundaries, having fun whilst doing so. They collaborate with artists, musicians, performers and bar tenders to be more than just a drink, but to be a community of forward thinkers. www.intunedrinks.com
