WIN A TRIP WITH THOSE CRAZY, RICH, ASIANS!
Singapore Tourism Board (STB) has teamed up with Warner Bros. to celebrate the contemporary romantic comedy Crazy Rich Asians, one of the most hotly anticipated movies of this summer, and its Singapore flavor.
Coming to theaters on August 15, the movie is based on the New York Times best-selling book by Singapore-born author Kevin Kwan. Crazy Rich Asians, which is primarily filmed in Singapore, showcases the city-state's vibrant and multi-faceted food, culture, and lifestyle scenes.
STB, in collaboration with Warner Bros., is rolling out a suite of activities and events to fully immerse audiences in the Crazy Rich Asians experience, bring them closer to destination Singapore and whet their appetites for the food, culture and nightlife experiences available in Singapore.
Movie fans can head to the "Crazy Rich Singapore Week", a pop-up event jointly organized by STB and TAO Group in Los Angeles, starring various Singapore creatives - an artist, a mixologist, a chef, and a DJ. See Annex A for more information about the Singapore creatives, and Annex B for more information on the experiences they will showcase at the Crazy Rich Singapore Week.
"We are pleased to join hands with our valued partners, Warner Bros. and TAO Group, to bring the Crazy Rich Asians experience to consumers. We hope that the film will inspire more visitors to discover the multitude of experiences in Singapore and ignite their passions for culture, food, entertainment and nightlife.
"At the same time, we also hope that fans will see that at its core, Crazy Rich Asians is about how human connections – formed out of love, family and belonging - transcend material wealth, and recognize that similarly, Singapore is the destination where visitors can strike up these treasured connections with like-minded people," said Ms Kershing Goh, Regional Director, STB Americas.
Fans of Crazy Rich Asians can look forward to the following:
- Feast, drink and dance like you're in the movie at The Highlight Room by TAO Group Los Angeles.
