5 unusual party locations

The very best parties are the ones that catch you by surprise. Take, for instance, your morning commute turning into a disco.

A few months ago, these so-called pre-work parties spread from London to the European continent. The idea seems to be that coffee, a croissant and a dance will make people more enthusiastic about their work.

Other event managers are trying out precisely the opposite — picking normal, boring locations, like telephone booths.
