Esquire UK says Esquire Sessions stages inspiring conversations between prominent voices and personalities from the worlds of sports, fashion, music, culture and beyond.
Following a successful Esquire Sessions launch event at the Silverstone F1 Grand Prix in July, added the publisher, which saw an in-conversation event with former Formula 1 champion, Damon Hill, and driver and commentator, Naomi Schiff, the franchise landed in London yesterday Wednesday 17 September.
Hosted at the Ham Yard Hotel, Esquire UK says guests will be treated to a fireside chat between Esquire’s UK Editor-in-Chief Teo van den Broeke and British actor, James Norton. Discussing his latest projects King & Conqueror (BBC) and House of Guinness (Netflix), Norton and van den Broeke will also delve into the power of personal style, the art of preparation, and what fame means in 2025. The franchise will then travel to Manchester later in the year.
The Platinum Card By American Express and The Esquire Sessions partnership will also span branded print and digital content, with bespoke multi-platform campaigns created for all events, the publisher continued.
Esquire says it has recently marked an exciting new chapter following the appointment of Teo van den Broeke as UK editor-in-chief earlier this year.
Teo van den Broeke, editor-in-chief of Esquire UK, said: “We are excited to launch Esquire Sessions in partnership with American Express, and look forward to hosting uplifting conversations with inspirational speakers. This is the beginning of an exciting journey for Esquire Sessions as we expand our event programme, and we couldn’t have hoped for a better partner.”
Dave Edwards, vice president, marketing at American Express UK, added: “Curated ‘in-conversation’ experiences are always very popular with our Platinum Cardmembers. That’s why we’re so pleased to launch this series of Esquire Sessions, bringing together a host of incredibly engaging personalities spanning culture, sport, music, entertainment and more. Tonight’s event featuring James Norton looks set to be a truly inspiring event!”
