Recap: ACE’s Latitude 53 Patio Party : The Advertising Club of Edmonton

AcePatio18

It was the perfect night to kick back on a street-level patio in the heart of downtown. Latitude 53 graciously hosted Ad Club of Edmonton members and guests for a Patio Party and gallery viewing on July 9, 2015. DJ Polyesterday provided the soundtrack for a relaxing evening of catching up with our favourite fellow advertising and media aficionados.

The bar opened at 5:00pm sharp and the signature cocktail, a tarragon and watermelon Hennessey Collins, flowed until we headed to the official after party at Red Star Pub. Latitude 53 volunteers passed around guacamole and chicken-topped homemade chips from Tres Carnales Taqueria. The local Taqueria recently opened Rostizado, a downtown Mexican rotisserie featured in an upcoming episode of “You Gotta Eat Here!” Needless to say, the snacks were amazing!
