ProChile & Movimentos Present the Pisco Disco, bringing Chile’s favourite spirit to London for the ultimate summer terrace party

ProChile is bringing a taste of Chile to East London this summer with The Pisco Disco, a one-night celebration of Chilean Pisco taking over Colour Factory in Hackney Wick on 16 July. From 6 pm, guests can enjoy Pisco cocktails, an evening of DJs led by internationally renowned Chilean producer DJ Raff, and a vibrant showcase of Chilean and Latin American culture, all to introduce more Londoners to Chile’s iconic grape spirit and make Pisco the drink of summer 2026. If you would like to attend. please let us know also!

Produced by distilling wine made from aromatic grapes grown in Chile’s northern valleys, Chilean Pisco is renowned for its smooth character and versatility in cocktails. Available in styles ranging from crystal clear to naturally amber, the spirit is known for its fresh floral and fruity notes, making it a perfect base for refreshing summer serves. While Pisco has long been enjoyed across Chile and South America, it is increasingly gaining recognition on cocktail menus around the world. That momentum is reflected in exports, which reached US$4 million in 2025, up 28% on the previous year and 70% compared with 2023, with Chilean Pisco now exported to 40 international markets. In the UK, where ProChile has led a campaign to raise awareness of the category since 2023, the number of Chilean Pisco brands available has doubled, while exports have increased by around 70%.

Joining DJ Raff on the decks is AUKA, one of the UK’s most exciting selectors, blending bass-heavy sounds with influences from her South African, Chilean and Welsh heritage, alongside Laputama and Movimientos, who have curated a line-up celebrating the breadth and diversity of Latin American music.

Set against the backdrop of Colour Factory’s outdoor terrace, The Pisco Disco combines expertly crafted cocktails with one of East London’s leading independent music venues, creating the perfect setting for a summer evening centred around Chile’s national spirit.

The event is presented in partnership with Movimientos, the not-for-profit organisation that has spent more than 20 years championing Latin American music and culture across the UK and Europe, bringing fresh artists and new sounds to audiences through club nights, festivals and live events.
