The afterparty was the perfect cap to a truly magical evening and had all of the stars mingling, enjoying drinks and mouth watering appetizers.
As the ideal location for hosting events such as movie premieres and after parties, Yamashiro proved itself to be the perfect choice to celebrate the premiere of Fool’s Paradise.
