ISLAND LIFE AFTER SUNDOWN

Its very name conjures images of sun, sand and sea. But look beyond that, and you’ll discover that Sentosa has much to offer come nightfall too.

THE RESORT ISLAND of Sentosa, off Singapore’s southern coast, needs no introduction. Its theme parks and exhilarating outdoor activities, promising hours of unabashed fun, have long captured the hearts of adventure- seeking locals and tourists alike. Add to that cool beach bars and myriad dining options, and you’ve got a winner on your hands.

Yet, there’s a side to this good-time island that often goes unrecognised: its nightlife. As these experiences prove, Sentosa’s bustling vibe goes on even after the sun sets.

PARTY NIGHTS

Celebrations come in all forms, and at Sentosa, there’s something for everyone – an all-out rave for thousands, a more intimate party with close friends and everything else in between.

Siloso Beach Party

When it comes to year-end parties, few are bigger than the Siloso Beach Party, Singapore’s one and only beach countdown bash. Returning for its 12th year, the dusk-to-dawn dance affair features adrenaline-pumping music spun by a medley of the finest DJS, as well as spectacular fireworks to usher in the new year. Get VIP tickets for exclusive privileges, such as access to the VIP Tent, which affords the best views of all the party happenings. sentosa.com.sg/silosobeachparty

Tanjong Beach Club

Gather your friends and welcome the new year at Tanjong Beach Club’s New Year’s Eve pool party. Groove to the tropical tunes of Fat Fish Familia’s DJ Orio, or simply chill and enjoy the breeze and bubbly. Looking for a New Year’s Day celebration? Head down anytime after 10am on the first day of 2019 for a hearty beachside brunch as you look into the horizon of the new year. tanjongbeachclub.com; facebook.com/tanjongbeachclub

WOOBAR

And for a smashing time any other day of the year, there’s WOOBAR, a lounge bar in W Singapore – Sentosa Cove. “Wine down” on Wednesdays with an unlimited supply of wine, coupled with cold cuts, cheese and nibbles, or “get shucked up” on Fridays, with freshly shucked oysters and a free flow of champagne, martinis and rosé. Come Saturday, let the weekend fun “be-gin” with a solid party night – think an unlimited flow of beer, prosecco and house spirits. woobar.wsingaporesentosacove.com; facebook.com/wsingaporesentosacove
