Dance to Taylor Swift hits on top of Marina Bay Sands
Taylor Swift vs Silent Disco Asia
This one is for the Swifties who still have withdrawal symptoms from the American pop star’s The Eras Tour shows at National Stadium in March.
This upcoming event by Silent Disco Asia, where partygoers dance to music piped in through LED lit-headphones, will feature all the hits, remixes as well as choice album cuts from the Swift discography.
There will be three DJs spinning three sets of songs, so you can always switch to the other channels if you do not like what you hear.
Plus, it takes place at Marina Bay Sands’ SkyPark Observation Deck, so you get a great bird’s-eye view of the Singaporean cityscape from the 56th floor.
Where: SkyPark Observation Deck, Marina Bay Sands, 2 Bayfront Avenue
MRT: Bayfront
When: Aug 17, 10pm
Admission: From $38 via Pelago, go to str.sg/FumV
