Netflix BAFTA Party Is On: Streamer Makes Fast Pivot To New Venue For Sunday Soirée

EXCLUSIVE: In a quick turnaround, Netflix has set a new venue for its annual post-BAFTA Film Awards party on Sunday, after its usual haunt, the Chiltern Firehouse, was evacuated amid a blaze on Friday afternoon.

No one was hurt in the incident, with Chiltern guests and staff safely escorted out of the premises. However, the property has been closed until further notice.

Netflix is now set to host its starry event at luxury hotel The Twenty Two in Mayfair’s Grosvenor Square. 

Despite the fast pivot, it is expected that, as with previous years, Netflix will keep up the celebratory vibe honoring its talent into the wee hours of the morning. The streamer has 16 nominations going into BAFTA night, including 11 for Emilia Pérez, three for Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl and one each for Daughters and Will & Harper.
