Saoko Cocktail Club in Clifton Street, Blackpool celebrates it's one year anniversary with exclusive event

The Saoko Cocktail Club was set up a year ago today by owner, Aitor Garcia Arbelo who is 33 and previously lived in the Canary Islands before moving to Blackpool.

The bar hosted an event last night from 5pm where invited guests enjoyed a range of food and cocktails and performances from two reknown DJs.

Mr Garcia Arbelo said: “The event was really special, we were just two guys setting up this business and we didn’t know what the future was going to hold for us. But we are passionate, we like customers service we come from is 90% customer service which is the Canary Islands.”

The two DJs were Viddal and Zoey Jones who both perform at the bar regularly and have also performed across the world in places such as Germany, Ibiza, at the F1 in Singapore and MTV in Portugal.

Mr Garcia Arbelo said: “We wanted to make something different and unique, some of our cocktails the section they are in is called the experience cocktails. As soon as we bring it to the table and its smoking people are just like wow.”

Mr Garcia will be kicking off the new year with a new menu and new cocktail glasses, although he reassured customers that price would remain the same.

The cocktail bar is located on Clifton Street in central Blackpool.
