Only a day after the Olympics opening
ceremony, OMEGA - the official
Timeskeepers of the London 2012 Olympics – hosted the celebrity launch party of
the OMEGA House on Saturday 28th July. With attendees such as Nicole Kidman, Keith
Urban, Eddie Redmayne, Kit Harington and Zara Martin, the party was a celebrity
mixture of Hollywood glamour and finest UK talent from film, television, music
and fashion.

The guests were taken care of on all
levels: Jarvis Cocker (Pulp front-man) got the party going with playing an
amazing set, Dynamo, the celebrity illusionist, took care of catching guest’s
attention, while Johnnie Walker Gold Label “Golden Moment” cocktails and
sumptuous canapés satisfied all other guests’ needs.

OMEGA House is located in Soho’s historic
House of St. Barnabas, more precisely on 1 Greek Street. The House will be a
luxury retreat during the Olympics and its main feature is the Instagram
inspired Wall of Fame, which was first signed by Nicole Kidman and Eddie
Redmayne and will be marked by many other medalists and international VIPs
during the Games.
In the words of the OMEGA President Stephen
Urquhart: “…It is an ideal place to greet old friends and meet new ones in an
appealing, comfortable environment.” Definitely worth a visit!
