It is fitting then that Asia’s Grande Dame is celebrating the latest cinematic outing for the world’s most famous secret agent with a programme of special themed events, kicking off with a unique photographic exhibition by iconic British photographer Terry O’Neill, entitled «All About Bond at The Peninsula» ahead of the Hong Kong premiere of Spectre in November.

To whet appetites for the new film, which sees Daniel Craig return to play 007 for the fourth time, The Peninsula is hosting a spectacular VIP dinner at Gaddi’s in partnership with Bond’s favourite bubbly, Bollinger Champagne, on 4 November 2015.

The hotel will be hosting a high-profile exhibition by the renowned British photographer Terry O’Neill, who has the distinction of having shot five Bonds, from Sean Connery to Daniel Craig, more than 20 iconic “Bond Girls”, as well as Frank Sinatra, Elton John, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Audrey Hepburn and Faye Dunaway, to name a few of Hollywood’s elite.

O’Neill will be guest of honour at the VIP dinner, in addition to hosting an artist talk that day, charting his career as one of the leading celebrity photographers of the 20th century. The Peninsula is even giving guests the opportunity to emulate the iconic British spy’s opulent lifestyle with “A Bond-worthy Stay”.
