James Bond Evening
6:00pm on Friday, May 29, 2026 at the Union Club of Boston
Step into a world of intrigue, elegance, and timeless British style as the British Officers' Club of New England presents an unforgettable James Bond Evening on Friday, May 29, 2026. From the moment you arrive for cocktails from 6:00pm, you'll be immersed in the sophistication of 007's universe. The evening will feature a professional demonstration of the making of the iconic Vesper Martini - Bond's signature cocktail, followed by the opportunity for guests to enjoy one themselves, shaken (or stirred) to perfection.
We also are honored to welcome Alan Porter, President of the Ian Fleming Foundation, as our after-dinner speaker. Alan will offer unique insights into the legacy of Ian Fleming and the enduring cultural impact of James Bond (see the speaker bio for more details).
The evening will also feature a variety of 007-themed activities, with prizes awaiting the victors. Whether you come for the camaraderie, the conversation, or the covert competition, this promises to be an evening of espionage, refinement, and spirited fellowship that's not to be missed!
