The gifted creative has collaborated with numerous artists such as Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey, Pitbull, Skrillex and the incomparable Whitney Houston among others.

Elevating the party luxe factor and experience, Amber Lounge is introducing new ultra-exclusive suite concepts to its table packages including its Noir Suite and Amber Suites.

To keep its revellers’ party energy levels suitably fuelled till late each night, this year’s Amber Lounge will also feature culinary delights by Meatsmith and Burnt Ends Bakery which guests may purchase throughout the evening along with Amber Lounge’s own custom labelled Kaluga hybrid caviar from Nomad Caviar.

Guests can enjoy specially curated entertainment and refreshments whilst exploring the scenic beauty of Singapore’s coastline.

In 2020, Amber Lounge was fully acquired by Group CEO and founder of Catcha Group, Patrick Grove, from Sonia Irvine who had founded the brand almost 20 years ago with its very first pop-up location at the 2003 Monaco Grand Prix. Grove holds the Chairman position at Amber Lounge and has appointed seasoned industry professionals, Cher Ng as CEO, and Jeannette Tan as Group Managing Director of the global brand.

With almost three incredible decades in the nightlife industry, Ng was the Co-Founder, Managing Director and former owner of Zouk, Kuala Lumpur which at its peak was ranked Top 13 club in the world by DJ Magazine. The multi-award-winning nightlife savant, Ng was also the Founder and Managing Partner of TREC Kuala Lumpur an entertainment and F&B hub spanning 7-acres and 50 outlets which became the heart and highlight of the nightlife scene in Malaysia. The precinct included Zouk Kuala Lumpur a 60,000 sqft super club, renowned as one of the largest in Asia.

Meanwhile Tan is a former technology and intellectual property lawyer turned luxe lifestyle events entrepreneur who has produced major events for Facebook, Google and past Grand Prix trackside afterparties including Boudoir Blanc and Boudoir Noire, having also brought in Asia’s first fully licensed pop-up of New York’s famed nightspot The Box to Singapore.

There’s a reason why Amber Lounge has always been the highlight of the Grand Prix calendar, as it’s seen as the post-race home to Formula 1 drivers from hosting Fernando Alonso’s farewell festivities upon his retirement in 2018 to Max Verstappen celebrating his season win in 2019 at Amber Lounge in Abu Dhabi. Post-pandemic there has definitely been a reignited worldwide interest in Formula 1 as a whole.
