The iconic Irish beer brand, Guinness, recently announced the launch of a festive 'pint-sized pub' in time for the holiday season. This unique pop-up is free to the public with a catch -- the pub only seats five people.
The pop-up is located in London’s Flat Iron Square and was designed based on the brand's research to find what people actually desire in a pub. The pint-sized pub boasts a fireplace, board games, bar snacks, and Christmas music for a fun and festive celebration.
Consumers can attend the event from December 5 - 9 and can get their hands on free tickets via Design My Night. All tickets are on a first-come, first-served basis to those over 18 years old.
