The  extravaganza that is the BICS Friday Night Launch Party is now to be held at Oceana in Birmingham City Centre

The exclusive party will take place in First Port, a welcoming room dressed with warm lighting and cushioned seats. This informal lounge, based on a cruise ship lounge, creates a fashionable yet classic feel. There will be an exclusive V.I.P area; the Aspin Ski Lodge, a log cabin reconstruction, complete with fur carpets on the walls, candle style lighting, wooden structure and it's own mounted moose head!

"How do I get to go to this sophisticated shindig?" I hear you cry.
