'Cause this is THRILLERโ€ฆ Thriller week at the H&G! ๐ŸงŸโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿป

And judging by this week's lineup, the only thing more frightening than Halloween is how much we've managed to cram into seven days. ๐Ÿ‘€

We've got a week full of tricks, treats and plenty of reasons to avoid going home earlyโ€ฆ

โ™ ๏ธ MONDAY: Redtooth Poker from 8PM

๐Ÿท WEDNESDAY: W**e Wednesday โ€” ยฃ12 bottles!

๐Ÿ‰ FRIDAY: United Rugby Championship from 7:45PM + live music from Joe Head, 8โ€“10PM ๐ŸŽธ

โšฝ SATURDAY: Premier League action, followed by our MASSIVE Rekordrooms Halloween takeover from 4PM till late! ๐ŸŽƒ๐ŸŽง

๐Ÿบ SUNDAY: Liverpool v Arsenal and Newcastle v Everton โ€” for those who survive Saturday.

Saturday's bringing 6 DJs, LIVE SAX, free entry and free shots for the best dressed! ๐Ÿชฉ๐Ÿ’€

Costumes encouraged, dancing expected, and Sunday morning recovery entirely your own responsibility.

The real horror story? Telling yourself you're only popping in for one. ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿป

๐Ÿ‘ฅ Teams of up to 6
๐Ÿป ยฃ50 bar tab for tonight's winners

We're VERY excited to welcome Hayley Palmer to the Horse & Groom for her FIRST EVER DJ set with us! ๐Ÿ’ƒ

You might recognise Hayley as a Sky TV music presenter, host of โ€œAn Audience Withโ€ฆโ€ and BBC entertainment reporter, but this Saturday she's swapping the presenting for the partying and bringing the tunes to South Wimbledon! ๐ŸŽถ

Do we like Marianne Leigh a lot? Guilty as charged. ๐Ÿ’‹๐ŸŽธ

And apparently the feeling's mutual, because she's coming back to the Horse & Groom AGAIN! ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿป

From releasing her own music to preparing for her London headline show in November, Marianne's been keeping busy โ€” but thankfully, she's still making time for her favourite South Wimbledon crowd. (That's you lot, obviously.)

If you've caught her performing with us before, you'll know exactly why we keep inviting her back. And if you haven't, you're seriously missing out.

We said we were having a Halloween partyโ€ฆ apparently that was an understatement. ๐Ÿ’€๐ŸŽƒ

This Halloween, Rekordrooms is taking over the Horse & Groom, and letโ€™s just say your usual Saturday down the local is about to get a LOT less usual. ๐Ÿ‘€

Weโ€™ve got 6 DJs, LIVE SAX and a whole lot of questionable dance moves heading your way. ๐ŸŽง๐ŸŽท

You might recognise George Carter and DJ Opti from previous nights at the H&G, but this time theyโ€™re bringing reinforcementsโ€ฆ and theyโ€™re not messing about. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

This Saturday, weโ€™re welcoming back The Amigos Band to the Horse & Groom for a night of live music, good company and the sort of evening that starts with โ€œjust one pint.โ€ ๐Ÿ‘€

Four amigos, a few guitars and a pub full of people who probably wonโ€™t need much convincing to sing along.

That G isn't going to split itself. ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿบ

Your weekly excuse for a pint has arrived, and this week we're calling it what it isโ€ฆ a training session.
Failed to split the G last time? Tragic. Embarrassing, even. But we're big believers in second chances (and second pints). ๐Ÿ‘€

Whether you're a seasoned professional or still struggling to find the middle of the letter, there's a perfectly poured Guinness waiting for you at the Horse & Groom.

Practice makes perfect. And who are we to stand in the way of greatness? ๐Ÿ†
