Student's TikTok invitation to 'Project X'-style birthday party goes viral.

London-based student Omar Dhadra invited over 2.5 million TikTok viewers to his 21st birthday party, which he planned in a Project X-style. The party was a success, but did not reach the level of chaos seen in the movie. Dhadra's party highlights the disconnect between Gen Z and the traditional nightlife industry, with a community-led report suggesting that the pandemic shutting down clubs during Gen Z's formative partying years may have been a factor. The Project X obsession is cyclical and is part of a larger trend of gravitating towards a "come one, come all" attitude.
