Burlington Arcade Achieves 007 Status
The prestigious Burlington Arcade in London’s Mayfair has created the 007 experience in homage to the 1964 classic film Goldfinger.
Women want him and men want to be like him: James Bond, a.k.a. 007, is the man with a license to kill, who saves the world and gets the dream girl in the process — all while looking sharp in a three-piece suit, and that’s just on the surface of what we understand the MI6 agent to be. But being an “007” is a mindset; it’s a matter of embodying a confident energy that effortlessly attracts what you want.
In London’s Mayfair, this energy can be experienced in an immersive James Bond-themed bar, The 007, created by the prestigious Burlington Arcade as an homage to the classic 1964 film Goldfinger. The 007, open until December 31, 2024, features two exclusively designed bars, where fans can enjoy a dash of 007 with signature cocktails specially created in partnership with Belvedere, Blackwell Rum, Champagne Bollinger and Macallan. Seek out iconic movie props including Oddjob’s hat, a Fort Knox gold bar, Goldfinger’s golf shoes and the spy hole clock from his private plane, an item that has never been previously exhibited.
The first floor’s unique 007 boutique sells collectibles that include collaborations and a number of items that can’t be found anywhere else, limited-edition framed prints, an exclusive first look at the James Bond 2024 luxury advent calendar, and will be offering additional yet-to-be-unveiled releases. | Photo Courtesy Of The 007 At Burlington Arcade
Visitors to the bar can walk underneath sculpted golden renditions of the iconic Aston Martin DB5, while underfoot a specially designed carpet features famous lines from the film. One thing for certain is that James Bond is a cross- generational character beloved by all — strong, intelligent, unapologetically confident, righteous, dangerously debonair and a gentleman. For those who appreciate such traits, experiencing a visit to The 007 is an absolute must.
