The popular Singapore Swing Party on Wednesday evening (15 May) takes place again at Ola Beach on Sentosa Island, which will be transformed into a fairground allowing registered attendees to take part in games, win prizes and listen to live music.
TFWA guests registered as full delegates with invitations are able to attend all the social events. Tickets can also be purchased during the trade show from the registration desk on level 1 of the Expo and Convention Centre during exhibition opening hours.
