The Posh Club
The Posh Club is showbiz afternoon tea & dancing for swanky senior citizens, elegant elders and glamorous golden girls. A social club for older people (60+), it is held regularly across London and South East England and now in Wales.
Common Wealth & Duckie bring The Posh Club to Cardiff for four events, celebrating the Four Seasons:
Spring * Summer * Autumn * Winter
These are glamorous events for 150 participants, held in the heart of the community in an elegantly transformed St Mellons Hyb Community Centre. A tongue-in-cheek ‘posh’ 1940’s afternoon tea with three live show business turns, waiters in black tie, vintage crockery and cabaret.
