Other parties

1-Altitude
Date:     23 to 25 September 2011

1-Altitude has sealed its reputation as the world’s highest rooftop bar, playing host to the World Gourmet Summit 2011, Singapore F1, Sports Illustrated magazine, (Other major corporate, F & B events) and picked up a string of awards along the way. They include winner of the Epicurean Star 2011 Award for the Luzerne Best Restaurant concept, and finalist for the Samsung Business Excellence Award for Fine Dining, both presented by the Restaurant Association of Singapore.

As the third Singapore F1 reaches our shores, the award-winning rooftop bar will host Japanese DJ Silva. Thanks to her clear-cut talent and ear for body- and soul shaking tunes, she became one of Japan’s most sought-after club DJs in no time. She also began incorporating scat and live vocals over her house mix during her set. Indeed, this distinct performance style sets her further apart from other DJs around, drawing the attention from overseas promoters and DJs. As of March ’08, she’s already held down numerous gigs at packed nightclubs and special events – not just in Japan but also in Korea, China, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Russia, Ukraine and the USA.


Butter Factory
Date:     24 to 25 September 2011

One of Japan’s finest on the decks DJ Licca visits Bump in a monthly affair of sweet nothings, all night delights, and of course a cheeky selection of hiphop and bass-heavy beats. Join us in this all-Nippon monthly and get involved with the fair and exquisite beauty by sweating it out in the barrage of monster floor fillers.


Insomnia
Date:     16 to 25 September 2011

With live rock and Top 40 music and lots of drinks to choose from, Insomnia is just minutes away from the Marina Bay Street Circuit.

Ku De Ta  presents Scarlett Etienne
Date:     24 to 25 September 2011

Scarlett Etienne is one of a rare breed - an inimitable talent and an artist that is impossible to pin down. Everything Etienne does is imbued with her superlative love for music, accomplished musicianship and an uncanny understanding of how to move a dance floor.

She can be seen gracing the decks everywhere from the infamous bastion of techno Watergate in Berlin to Club Midi in Romania and Likuid Club in Hong Kong, where she is a resident. Her “total obsession with synthesisers” ultimately drives her style. Her music is a total party music, always punchy, dramatic and electronically influenced.

Club DJ, producer, singer and songwriter, this multi-talented lady hits Singapore this September with a party over the F1 weekend at the KU DÉ TA Club Lounge. Let down your hair, put on your party shoes, bottle yourself with alcohol, and let her reveal her secrets as you stamp her imaginative style on the dancefloor....

On TOP of that, indulge yourself at the ultimate race as Singapore turns up the glitz and glamour for a spectacular Grand Prix night race that gets the world talking. Be part of the action this year at KU DÉ TA, and enjoy a breathtaking view of the race perch on the SkyPark. Spectacular views await you from every corner of the venue.
