Immersive Hospitality Experiences

Every event at TheAceAndEmber is designed as a story in motion: warm arrivals at the bar, first pours catching the light, the quiet focus of a poker hand, laughter over a shared dessert course. Our team choreographs these scenes so your guests feel transported from the moment they arrive.

Atmosphere, perfected

Charcoal-black surfaces, deep walnut timber, eucalyptus green accents, and soft amber lighting create an inviting, cinematic glow that flatters every moment and photograph.

Personalised service

From dietary preferences to pacing the tournament, our event team anticipates needs, tailoring each touchpoint so hosting feels effortless and your guests feel genuinely seen.

Refined, non-gambling play

Poker at TheAceAndEmber is exclusively offline and recreational—no real-money gambling, ever. Instead, we focus on storytelling, camaraderie, and the thrill of friendly competition.
