Next Friday, the Secret Walls live art battle is back, with Brazilian flip-flop gurus Havaianas chucking a nice wedge of cash at the formally grass-roots event.
Debuted in a small east London bar (where else?) in 2006, Secret Walls has since pushed the boundaries, scribbling itself onto the international stage with sister events in New York, Lisbon, Berlin, Tokyo and, of course, our very own hip and happening Hong Kong.
This year the dope drawing duels will be hosted by Central’s Backstage Live Restaurant, where eight street-styled artists will battle to win one of four places in the upcoming semi-finals.
They’ll also be DJs spinning ACTUAL vinyl, obviously. These guys may have some big sponsors now, but they’re still too cool for computer-aided mixing.

When: 7:30pm -midnight, Friday May 15
Where: Backstage Live Restaurant, 1/F Somptueux Central, 52-54 Wellington Street, Central
