We were so busy on the day that many of our food vendors sold out, including Crafters, Elvira's Nuts, Cake and Cupcakes by Rashmi and the Ritz-Carlton's fish 'n' chips!
Lots of fun was had by our younger guests thanks to activities from Cultural Keys, Face Slap, MCF and Rashmi.
We were able to assist four charitable organisations in their fundraising efforts: the British Club, MCF, Roots & Shoots and Roundabout.

About Us
Cultural Keys, a registered company in Hong Kong, Beijing and the UK, was founded in 2013 by three expats who were inspired by how difficult it was to access authentic traditional culture in Beijing.
Since then, Cultural Keys has helped hundreds of people do exactly that.
Cultural Keys is run on the love and passion we have for traditional Chinese culture. We believe 100% in making the beauty, wisdom and traditions of Chinese culture available to everyone. Whether at our culture centre, at your school or office, or at iconic locations around China, when you are with Cultural Keys you truly have the opportunity to unlock the potential of China!
