Club Edge’s winter rooftop patio party

Groundhogs across the country may be predicting six more weeks of winter, but Club Edge has found an inventive way to work around winter’s chill.

This Friday, Edge will stage a rooftop patio party to celebrate Winterlude.

The club’s rooftop, typically a summer-only feature, will transform into a warm and cozy refuge. “It will be a fully heated patio, and we will even have a coat check available on the rooftop in case some people are hot under the commercial heaters,” DJ Martin Leguerrier explains.

Leguerrier will be the night’s beat master, accompanied by a performance by Icesis Couture.

Tim Hortons is sponsoring the event, and hot chocolate from Canada’s largest fast-food outlet will be served steaming hot. Edge bartenders will also be mixing up drinks featuring hot chocolate.

“We are glad to offer the community something different and exciting,” Leguerrier says.

The downstairs lounge and bar will remain open.
