Flight Club Park Row: Popular Leeds 'Social Darts' bar marks 10th anniversary with free birthday party
Darts bar Flight Club in Leeds city centre is celebrating 10 years since its humble beginnings in Shoreditch this month - and you’re invited.
The Park Row venue is marking a decade of “Social Darts” with a UK-wide tour in a 30-year-old fire engine, Martha, which holds a special significance to the company’s origins.
The party arrives in Leeds at 6pm on October 17, with free entry, live DJs, prizes including a £1,000 bar tab, and other surprises. A VIP package with welcome drinks, unlimited pizza, and three hours of darts games led by Flight Club’s gamesmasters is available for £50 per person.
Throughout the month of October, each city’s birthday celebration will support the Flight Club charitable foundation, which backs 21 national and local charities. In Leeds, the Children’s Heart Surgery Fund, a charity empowering people with heart disease, will benefit.
The choice of a fire engine for the tour harks back to Flight Club’s roots. In 2010, co-founders Steve and Paul, along with CFO Ross and friends, circumnavigated the globe in a fire engine in memory of Steve’s father, a 33-year veteran firefighter.
The fundraising expedition raised £120,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support, The Fire Fighters Charity , and The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation. It also set a Guinness World Record.
