Featured Event 

Holi Festival of Colors

Holi is a popular ancient Hindu festival, also known as the “festival of spring”, the “festival of colours”, or the “festival of love.” The festival signifies the triumph of good over evil, and is a great excuse to throw coloured water at friends or strangers!

The festival has many purposes, but most prominently it celebrates the beginning of Spring. Hindus believe it is a time of enjoying spring’s abundant colours and saying farewell to winter and we are totally onboard with that!

So get ready for an epic day of colour, food, and fun as Dragon Events brings you the most anticipated party of the year! They’ve teamed up with Kebabs on the Grille to bring you amazing food, drinks and awesome performances!

Enjoy our all you can eat Indian buffet lunch, hard/soft drinks, music from star DJ Shri, and DJ Kart, Indian classical dance performances and to top it all off, a free Zumba class! 

But that’s not all – they’ll also be offering up the most popular Indian food in town!

Dress code alert! Wearing white will make things all the more special. And don’t worry, there will be plenty of colour flying around once the party gets started!

Ticket includes:

• DJs
• An Indian lunch buffet
• One drink
• Organic colors to throw
• Performances
• Ghujias – sweet deep-fried dumplings
• Zumba class! 

Early bird tickets are just RMB179, but that is only until February 18, so get yours now to avoid disappointment!

The Same As It Ever Was @ Dada Bar

After a five-year break from deejaying, Santo Chino and his The Same As It Ever Was party are back. It’s not exactly The Same As It Ever Was — in a manic panic, Santo Chino sold all of his precious records and his special rotary mixer in 2017, and stopped listening to music for four years. 

Now he’s refreshed, with all-new music and the same great taste: everything from early dancehall reggae to Brazilian guitar to Chicago house classics and post-punk originals (but no disco this time).

It’s still nothing too precious, nothing too special — great songs and originals, played loud and in full one after the other after the other. Pretty much (almost) The Same As It Ever Was.

Fri Feb 17, doors 9pm, DJ from 10pm; RMB60.
