Marking the hotel brand\u2019s diamond jubilee, Sofitel Melbourne on Collins chose to celebrate its 60th<\/sup> birthday by combining with 60,000 years of First Nations creativity at an event on July 1 at the hotel\u2019s Club Lounge dubbed La Soiree: A Symphony of Sparkles<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the backdrop of the city of Melbourne by night, and in a room twinkling with candlelight, guests were treated to a runway show by NGali, a celebrated Indigenous fashion brand that tells stories through its prints and designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Home of creativity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Stephan Leroy, general manager of Sofitel Melbourne on Collins, said the event was a testament to the hotel\u2019s commitment to creativity; Sofitel Melbourne on Collins regularly partners with local theatre events like the recent outing of the musical Chicago<\/em> and more recently a Pharaoh<\/em> high tea inspired by the Melbourne Winter Blockbuster exhibition at the NGV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are honoured to have showcased the incredible talents from our amazing local community, reflecting the diversity and artistic spirit that Melbourne is renowned for,\u201d said Stephan. \u201cThis evening was a testament to our commitment to delivering exceptional experiences to our guests.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event also featured a musical performance by Lisa Grosman of the Australian World Orchestra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event was sponsored by Pommery Champagne and assembled guests were the first in Australia to sample a special 60th<\/sup> birthday Champagne. This one-off bubbly will be showcased in the special diamond jubilee cocktail, the Crystal Martini, available at The Atrium on 35 for the whole month of July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
