Action-packed social events programme in Singapore in May

Bright and early on Sunday 6th May, the annual golf tournament, hosted in partnership with Interparfums, will kick off at 07:15 at Raffles Country Club. The lake course’s picturesque greens and rolling fairways offer plenty of challenges to golfers of all abilities. In addition to the main tournament, prizes will be given for other golfing achievements, including the longest drive, to give the morning a dash of additional excitement. 

The elegant Welcome Cocktail at 19:30 on Sunday evening has had a change of venue this year and will be held at the beautiful Gardens by the Bay. Delegates attending this relaxed yet stylish event will have the chance to enjoy exclusive access to the stunning Flower Dome, whilst they catch up with colleagues over Champagne, cocktails and a sumptuous buffet. 

In the evening on Tuesday, the traditional Chill-Out Party at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel will offer a chance to relax after a busy start to the week. This event, which starts at 19:30, will offer a tranquil pool and breathtaking city views where partygoers can enjoy massages, reflexology and gem therapy. This event is kindly sponsored by Lacoste, and will once again feature their highly popular raffle competition to win tickets to the Roland-Garros tennis tournament. Korean Ginseng Corporation will provide a tempting array of specially designed, healthy seasonal cocktails. 

Another highlight of the week will be the Singapore Swing Party, which will take place at the JW Marriott Hotel at 20:00 on Wednesday evening. This year’s iconic event will transport guests to another world for an unforgettable evening in a parallel dimension. Think ‘Avatar’ for a flavour of what awaits and expect an otherworldly blend of music, performance and drama. The dress code will be smart casual but ideally something white to enjoy the full benefit of some spectacular lighting effects.  

From Monday to Wednesday, delegates will be able to unwind at the popular TFWA Asia Pacific Bar, enjoying the beautiful terrace and spectacular views of Marina Bay. The bar will be open from 18:00 until 19:30 each day (except for Monday when it will be open from the earlier time of 17:00). Drinks will be provided courtesy of TFWA’s exhibitors. 

Commenting on the programme, TFWA president Erik Juul-Mortensen said: “As always, these events will give participants the chance to network in a relaxed atmosphere, away from the bustle of the main exhibition and conference. We are looking forward to some truly great entertainment.” 

All social events are only available to TFWA guests registered under the full delegate package and entrance is by invitation only. Last minute invitations can be purchased during TFWA Asia Pacific Exhibition & Conference 2018 at the registration desk on level 1 at the Marina Bay Sands during the exhibition opening hours.
