Following the Gunners’ late-night celebration with friends and family on Sunday, new information about their extravagant Premier League victory celebrations in Mayfair has surfaced.
After finishing second for three straight seasons, Mikel Arteta’s team finally won the Premier League trophy. They defeated title rivals Manchester City by seven points to win the English championship for the first time in 22 years.
And the Gunners did not hold back in their title celebrations, savoring the occasion with friends and family at an exclusive Mayfair nightclub, even though they had a crucial Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain to prepare for on Saturday.
The upscale central London venue Bacchanalia bills itself as a “world of Mediterranean delicacies, revelry and artistry” that is “not merely a restaurant, [but] it is a breath-taking feast for the senses.”
Most drinks cost at least three figures, and bottles of its most costly wine, Liber Pater, fetch £56,000.
Captain Martin Odegaard was seen holding and dancing with the Premier League trophy in fresh video that was posted to social media on Tuesday. He was grinning broadly as he rocked the trophy back and forth.

Arsenal’s stars spent the night out at the opulent Bacchanalia restaurant in Mayfair.
“On Saturday, we’re going to be champions of Europe!” Arteta said in an address to his Arsenal teammates that was caught on camera by another visitor.
In the third leaked video, Gunners left-back Piero Hincapie was seen having a lively discussion with a female visitor on the balcony of the establishment. In the fourth, partygoers were seen parading the trophy while dancing in a Conga line.
At the club’s afterparty, Declan Rice also danced and rapped while holding the trophy in front of a large group of employees.
Louis Dunford, a singer, was brought in by the Gunners to play “The Angel,” also known as “North London Forever,” in a private piano serenade.
After formally securing the title on Tuesday following Manchester City’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth, Arsenal defeated Crystal Palace 2-1 at Selhurst Park in celebratory scenes just hours earlier.
The “Bible Brothers” of Arsenal, a group of Christian players that includes Eberechi Eze, Jurrien Timber, and Bukayo Saka, posed for pictures in the locker room while making crosses with their hands.
As the team bus left Selhurst Park, Gabriel Martinelli held up his medal and kissed the trophy, preparing for a night of festivities.
Isabella Rousso, his girlfriend, posted at least 17 times during the day and into the early hours of the morning. He also shared a moment with his tight group.
Additionally, Rousso called Gabriel Magalhaes the “best defender in the world and in Brazil” while posing beside him.
After the center-half’s incredible season, Gabrielle Figueiredo, Gabriel’s wife, posted videos of herself and the Arsenal defender joyfully dancing at the celebration.

At Arsenal’s celebration, Declan Rice sung a rap song and danced with the Premier League trophy.
With the German’s Premier League medal, Kai Havertz and his spouse Sophia Weber celebrate.
Arsenal’s players will be totally focused on defeating PSG in Saturday’s Champions League final, with the French team traveling to Budapest as the bookmakers’ favorites, after partying late into the night.
“It’s an amazing feeling.” “I’ve been trying to go through this moment a few times, but I could never expect it to be that big, to be that beautiful, and to see so much joy and pride amongst all the people and our supporters,” Arteta said on the Selhurst Park pitch following Arsenal’s trophy lift. “I think sometimes you need to reflect on that, because everything has happened so fast and in such a special way as well.” However, I truly want to savor this moment, at least today. “I can’t wait to write a new chapter in the history of our football club, and tomorrow we’ll start preparing for the final in Budapest.”
