Karachi: Magnum has become a brand synonymous with indulgence, intrigue and pleasure, its unique flavour and advertisement strategies always leave you asking for more.

Magnum yet again brings back its annual event, The Magnum Chocolate Party [#MagnumParty16] set to take place on Wednesday 21 September in Karachi.

This year’s Magnum Chocolate Party brings a twist to the table, drawing inspiration from the art movement of Surrealism, centring around Salvador Dali, and extending this into its collaboration between Chocolate, Art, Dance and Fashion.
