Not saying we’ll find any old excuse to head over to Hakuba…
But… over the weekend we linked up with Japan-based crew Calico for a loose passport party tucked inside the snow-covered village.

The spot, Holy Smokes, Hakuba’s original speakeasy hidden behind a cigarette vending machine, was the perfect setting for a bunch of beers and some fiery sets from a handful of epic DJs, including our mate Cleaves!

A Calico x LWA raffle kept energy high with prizes from Quest, Oyuki and Holy Smokes, while profits from shirts sold on the night were donated to In Pieces. Grab one at Snow Machine if you missed out.
