Eyes To The Front Presents Party In The Pool
We can think of one party crew that’ll help us cool off from the heated action of the F1!

Organising what’s billed as “THE daytime F1 weekend party to go to”, this club perched atop Marina Bay Sands will convince you to leave the house early. Its Sky High Brunch daytime party is back just in time for F1 season – resident DJs drop deep house, disco, and other chilled-out beats while you indulge in oysters, Asian tapas and free-flow Veuve Clicquot Rich Champagne. High life? Nailing it.

The Circuit – The Ultimate Party In The Sky
Another F1 party that gives you a bird’s eye view of Singapore from the heart of the CBD, 1-Altitude is throwing a series of events that’ll determine if you have the energy of a race car. On the 16th, the Williams Martini Racing Party kicks off at 1-Altitude Gallery and Bar with model-DJ Katty Q, who’s commercially known as “The Queen Of MashUP”. While at Altimate, the club space two storeys down, Johnnie Walker Gold Label is hosting a special high-octane event with DJ duo KimKat, who’ve opened for the likes of Steve Aoki. Events are happening all weekend, including a day-to-night Farmer’s Market, so click here for the full low-down.

SRYNTSRY Presents New Asia Grand Prix Weekend
A race weekend with the fastest speeds calls for an event with the highest view, and at a staggering 71 storeys, New Asia trumps the competition. Organised by the SRYNTSRY fellas – whose parties often run the gamut of genres like house, hip-hop and reggae – this soaring gig features headliner, NEW_ID, on the 17th, who’s currently hot property under Axwell’s Axtone label. And if that’s anything to go by, we’re certain you’ll be in for blitzes of melodic, progressive house.

Zouk Soundsystem Presents Firebeatz
If you’re visiting our lil’ red dot for F1 weekend, you might wanna head to Singapore’s most iconic club for a real EDM onslaught. The Netherlands’ Firebeatz is taking over the Zouk decks on the 17th, and you can expect everything from soothing melodic house to destructive big-room boomers. As the new kids say it, this one’s gon’ be lit!

Boudoir Noire
For something extraordinarily out there this F1 season, how about a cabaret-themed secret party to shock your senses? Its debut edition last year witnessed New York’s The Box – a campy theatre company known for its burlesque ballerinas and other eccentric performers – and Singapore’s own Sukki Singapora. Details are still scant at the moment, but so far, we know that there’ll be free flow for VIP guests, international DJs to get the tunage flowing, and yes, the return of The Box in case you missed them.
Boudoir Noire, 17-18 September, venue TBA.
