Lure Fishbar recently celebrated its 20th anniversary with a grand bash that brought together the who’s who of the seafood-scarfing, yacht-loving, and nightlife scene. The event was more than just a party; it was described as “a reunion of the OGs” by one of the attendees, highlighting the significance of the occasion.
The celebration was a five-hour extravaganza filled with nonstop dancing, caviar bumps, an open bar, and nostalgic tales of the good old days on Mercer and Prince streets. Owner John McDonald and Chef Preston Clark were the perfect hosts, making sure to greet and mingle with over 300 guests, including notable personalities like Maye Musk, Ann Dexter Jones, and Candace Bushnell.
As DJ Kieren Taylor spun classics by legendary artists such as Prince, Madonna, and Janet and Michael Jackson, the atmosphere was electric, with former ‘The Real Housewives of New York’ star Dorinda Medley even hitting the dance floor. The party was a trip down memory lane, with McDonald reminiscing about the thousands of memories created at Lure over the past two decades.
The event wouldn’t have been complete without the presence of McDonald’s partners in the nightlife industry. The likes of Taylor Swift, Chris Rock, and LeBron James, who frequent Lure Fishbar, added to the star-studded guest list. Notable personalities such as David Rabin, Noah Tepperberg, and Jean-Georges Vongerichten dropped by to raise a glass and toast to 20 years of success.
The celebration saw a bevy of notable guests, including Patrick McMullan, Michelle Hicks, and Victoria Brito, among others. The party continued even after the festivities wrapped up, with guests moving on to nearby bars The Mulberry and Temple to keep the night going.
Overall, Lure Fishbar’s 20th-anniversary celebration was a night to remember, filled with laughter, music, and shared memories. Here’s to another 20 years of success for this iconic establishment!
