House party
House Manila, the coolest, newest dance club in town marked another milestone, dahlings, when it hosted the magical summer event of the year, the world renowned “Amnesia Ibiza.” Amnesia is one of the in demand, internationally renowned clubs in Ibiza, Spain, and has been consistently recognized as “one of the best global clubs.”
Over the years it has provided its patrons with the “Amnesia Dream” giving party-goers an unmatched experience when it comes to clubbing. The few times I was there, you can’t imagine the energy and adrenaline that hits you. And take note, dahlings, you don’t go there before 1 a.m. since the party goes on until after lunch at 2 p.m. the next day. Get the picture, dahlings?
This year Amnesia took over House Manila featuring Ibiza resident DJ Oliver Schmitz on the decks. The dance floor was extremely hot, hot, hot until early morning and all hands were in the air as DJ Oliver played world-class tracks exclusive to Amnesia. The horde of Manille’s regular party goers were present plus a platoon of the party suspects.
Adding to this over the top clubbing experience were eyepopping performances from the Universo Robots of Spain and the House Society Dancers.
You’ll love it, palangga.
House Manila is at G/F, Remington Hotel, Newport City, Pasay.
