The GOAT’s influence is undeniable — hot off the heels of the Jordan Brand “Board of Greatness” retreat, Drake just so happens to host his own brand-sponsored “NOCTA Manor” retreat. We jest, of course, but Nike, Inc. and their associates are doing plenty of jet-setting this summer, just capping off a London retreat for The Boy and his inner circle.

Drake x Nike “NOCTA Manor” Event @hendrygoodfell0w
Hosted in the United Kingdom after Drake’s three-day headlining stint at Wireless Festival, the NOCTA affair was attended by the usual star-studded cast associated with the Canadian MC. Official press lists Central Cee, Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, 21 Savage, and Yeat among the attendees, but event photos depict a host of additional notables, including Adin Ross, DDG, BenDaDonnn, and Zach Bia. On top of a host of sword-imprinted swag and spreads, attendees were treated to basketball and football workouts and river cruises.
While seemingly tailored a simply a friends and family celebration, these shots do depict some exclusive product that may indicate the future of the line, as special branded waffle stickers and robes with NOCTA branding made their way into the event gallery. At the time of writing, the next official release from the sub-brand is expected to be the NOCTA Glide “Black/Iron Grey.”
