Court circuit – Embassy 15 – February 2009


Left and right - Diplomats get into the rhytm of things

Latino London
The Young Diplomats in London warmed up the Capital with a sizzling Latin 09 party at Canning House. Around 230 guests took to the dance floor, learning the basics of the salsa and the Argentine Tango. A highlight of the evening was the Brazilian carnival, complete with exotic Mardi Gras dancers. Over 20 prizes were up for grabs as guests danced the night away, sipping cocktails, Chilean wine and Corona beer, sponsored by IDS. Other sponsors included Towergate Embassy Insurance, BMW and the Hyatt Regency. All funds raised will go to Discovering Latin America.
