For nearly seven decades, Playboy has delivered unrivaled hospitality experiences around the world, from the original Playboy Clubs to the legendary Playboy Mansion. Today, Playboy hospitality offerings include the Playboy Club and Lounge in Jaipur, India, the Playboy Club and Casino in London, and celebrity- and influencer-hosted parties and events in New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami and more.
In recent years, beer gardens, hotel rooftops and lounges have become increasing popular with young Indian consumers who seek more elevated and intimate settings over more expansive dance-club nightlife settings.
