The Singapore EDITION, which marks the brand's first property in Southeast Asia, welcomed both international and local VIP guests for a three-day festival to celebrate its launch weekend held from 9 – 12 May.

Well-known guests included Donnie Yen, Cissy Wang, Fiona Xie, Arissa Cheo, Nathan Hartono, Hossan Leong, Michelle Chia, Jean Danker and many others, who came ready to party and add sparkle to the glittery weekend. 

Each of the hotel’s uniquely designed spaces were activated to create a kaleidoscope of glamorous entertainment experiences and high-octane party vibes. The event saw the debut of the hotel’s exclusive ‘micro club’ Wonder Room, showcasing a set of world-class performances and free-flow bottle service, and concluded with an after-hours nightcap in The Pink Room for guests truly in-the-know.

On the evening of 11 March, guests gathered at the 13-storey boutique hotel and made their way to FYSH at EDITION, the hotel’s signature restaurant, a modern seafood steakhouse by Australian star chef Josh Niland.

Dinner was a multi-course family-style affair featuring Niland’s fin-to-tail aged seafood and zero waste philosophy. The night continued with lively DJ sets by Nicolette and Yafith in Lobby Bar accompanied by signature scent-inspired cocktails and indulgent passed canapes.

As guests got into the groove, the party slowly filtered downstairs via the striking statement staircase, before descending to the subterranean floor for the after party. Here, a trio of high octane spaces; Punch Room; the newly debuted Wonder Room; and The Pink Room, were individually programmed for a truly multi-dimensional experience.

Punch Room, EDITION’s global cocktail bar concept inspired by 19th-century London private clubs was a hive of activity with authentic silver punch bowls served to a soundtrack of hip hop classics.

Simultaneously, guests were treated to the premier of Wonder Room, a luxurious underground ‘micro club’ within the hotel that redefines luxury music, art and cultural experiences. Swathed in plush deep red velvet drapes with cosy armchairs and intimate booths, entertainment kicked off with the captivating beats of Mantravine, a tribe of sonic alchemists who blended neo-shamanic rhythms with live instruments and psychedelic dance groves.

The night continued with a live performance by Singaporean singer-songwriter and actor Nathan Hartono before a high energy set by Japanese musician and DJ Mademoiselle Yulia renowned on Tokyo’s electro scene. To wrap things up, a nightcap in The Pink Room was enjoyed by those truly in-the-know.

On the last day of EDITION Hotel’s Singapore takeover, guests were whisked away on a journey of recovery and relaxation with indulgent experiences at The Spa at EDITION. The festivities continued at noon where guests gathered at ROOF for a chilled-out poolside brunch in the sun at the hotel’s hidden rooftop oasis on Cuscaden Road.
