The best parties tonight are, as expected, mostly invite-only. But for those of you who fancy having a go at begging, borrowing or stealing to get on the list, here they are:

For good seafaring legs even after a few, then the AEW, Malcolm Hollis and Legal & General yacht parties are the place to be on the sea. In its first year, L&G’s soirée is already very oversubscribed.
Also, Lovells yacht party is on Fairbird from 9pm to midnight.
If you want to stay on dry land, then head to the Deloitte Real Estate cocktails at 6pm.
Or the Jones Lang LaSalle press conference and drinks at 5pm at the LaSalle MIPIM beach marquee.
