If nightlife in Singapore is heavily restricted (looking at you, public drinking ban), the F1 weekend is our chance to scale up the afterparties. Doors open right when the concerts wrap up at 11pm, welcoming the crowds on the alcohol/adrenaline-induced high who still want to party away into the night.
Zouk
No surprise that the third best club in the world according to British zine DJ Mag has a part in the Grand Prix festivities. Inspired by retro video games, the “Checkpoint” themed party sees OG DJs Hong and Lincey & The Dinosaur bringing back the early days of EDM and ’90s pop to the dance floor. It’s a star-studded line-up with R3HAB spinning the deck at main Zouk on Saturday night and Jay Sean at Capital on Sunday. Get your tickets here.
Zouk is located at 3C River Valley Road, The Cannery, Singapore 179022.
Bang Bang
What do Gordon Ramsay, LMFAO, and Will.I.Am have in common? You guessed it—their love for Bang Bang. While the club has garnered reputation for having the best afterparties during GP season, they’ve pulled out all stops for this year’s edition. DJ Metro—official Chicago Bulls DJ who has raved with the likes of Ariana Grande, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, Lil Jon and Pitbull, and DJ AGENT SMTH who played for Ultra Japan and Korea, are taking over their stage till the wee hours. Get your tickets here.
Bang Bang is located at 7 Raffles Boulevard, Marina Square, Singapore 039595.
Lavo
Lavo’s weekly party, Saturday Soiree, is in full gear for F1. Headlining Saturday’s gig is American rapper, record producer, and DJ Jermaine Dupri (who happens to have co-written and co-produced everyone’s favourite Mariah Carey song “We Belong Together”). Brunch lovers will also be delighted to know that Lavo will continue into Sunday with a champagne brunch and dinner buffet with DJ Miles Slater. Get your tickets here.
Lavo is located at 10 Bayfront Ave, Marina Bay Sands Tower 1, Singapore 018956.
