Toronto’s Secret Speakeasy Now Offers Social Distance Parties For Your Friends

Dust off your dancing shoes!
Lead Writer, Travel

If you thought dance clubs were cancelled for the summer, think again! This Toronto bar isn't letting social distancing get in the way of a fun time with friends. The establishment has transformed into a private disco and gelato shop, where you can 'dis-dance' with your BFF's. Dust off your favourite party outfit and head over to Toronto's Hush Hush gelato shop for the sweetest dance club of the summer.

With distancing measures in place, we aren't able to have a wild night out on the town with friends like we used to.

This Toronto bar has come up with a unique way to party while staying six feet apart.

Hush Hush, a recently opened speakeasy in the Junction, has transformed into a gelato shop that offers private discos for you and your friends.

The venue features a convenience store in the front with a secret bar hidden in the back. 

The convenience store has now become a gelato bar and party area.

You can indulge in a rotating selection of craft gelato to keep you cool while pulling some of your favourite moves.

The Social Dis-dance feature allows you and a maximum two of your friends to have some fun while staying apart.

Guests are sanitized, then welcomed into the shop where they can take a shot of their choice and enjoy their own private disco while their gelato is being made.

The Social Dis-dance and gelato bar are being offered all summer long, and no reservations are necessary.

Hush Hush also announced in an Instagram post that all the money from a select gelato flavour will go towards Black Mental Health Matters for the month of June.

The gelato is available for curbside pickup along with spirits and beer.

The venue is open from Wednesday to Sunday. You can find updated daily hours on the Hush Hush Instagram page.

Call up your besties and head over to this sweet Social Dis-dance disco!
