Every October, as the lights go down on Marina Bay and the engines roar to life, Singapore becomes something larger than the sum of its circuit. The Formula 1 night race is as much about what happens off-track as on it — a convergence of power, money, and spectacle where luxury maisons, private clubs, and international nightlife brands stage parties that rival the race in intensity.
These are not the kind of events you stumble into. They are the city’s hardest tickets: invite-only rooftops with 360-deg fireworks views, Michelin-star feasts paired with flowing champagne, and after-parties where global music icons and racing’s elite share the same dance floor.
And yes, some price tags are jaw-dropping, but exclusivity is the point. This is race week at its most decadent.
And if decadence is the currency, then the drivers themselves are its ambassadors. Where do F1 drivers party in Singapore? The short answer: Amber Lounge.
For over 15 years, it has been the after-party of choice for the sport’s elite, from Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen to Charles Leclerc, George Russell, and Carlos Sainz, who famously celebrated his Ferrari win there. Amber Lounge has become ritual — part nightclub, part sanctuary — where the world’s fastest men decelerate into champagne-fuelled abandon.
Around it, the city stages its own constellation of soirées, each vying for a piece of the Grand Prix’s glamour. Here are seven we know you will enjoy.
67 at the Races: Madame Fan
Wine society 67 Pall Mall brings its signature elegance to race week with 67 at the Races, a one-night-only takeover of Madame Fan at The NCO Club on October 5. Designed exclusively for members, the evening pairs the artistry of dim sum with some of the world’s most coveted wines.
On pour for two hours: the 2013 Pierre Péters Cuvée Spéciale Les Chétillons Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Brut, 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes Etienne Sauzet Magnum, 2005 Château Pavie 1er Grand Cru Classé A, and 2018 Barolo Francia Giacomo Conterno.
Plates include suckling pig topped with caviar, ume wasabi prawn, and wagyu fried rice.
Tickets are priced at $1,467 per person, with entry limited to 67 Pall Mall members. It is as much a masterclass in vinous prestige as it is a pre-race ritual.
As this event is invite-only, contact events@67pallmall.sg for enquiries.
47A at National Gallery Singapore
At the apex of hospitality sits 47A at National Gallery Singapore, an experience priced at US$4,500 per person (roughly $6,100). With only 70 guests admitted each night (October 3 to 5), it is built for intimacy.
Guests dine on a Michelin-star culinary spread, sip free-flow champagne and spirits, and take in panoramic views of the track and skyline while surrounded by the art of Formula 1 painter Paul Oz.
Resident DJ Danyon Festus calibrates the atmosphere with a steady pulse, culminating in a post-race celebration on Sunday. It is rarefied air — even for race week.
Elevation Lounge by Moët & Chandon
From galleries to the skies, Moët & Chandon marks its official return as Formula 1’s champagne partner with the Elevation Lounge (October 3 to 5). Set at Marina Bay as a refined summer pop-up inspired by a French kiosk, it unfolds beside a giant hot air balloon shaped like a champagne cork — the maison’s boldest symbol of celebration.
Guests can indulge in Moët paired with SUSHISAMBA’s Japanese-Brazilian-Peruvian fusion menu, samba dancers, and live DJ sets, before watching the balloon itself take flight over the city skyline on race night. No entry price is listed, but this is a maison that doesn’t do modesty; its spectacle is the luxury.
AFTER 2049 at Marina Bay Sands
Not officially part of Formula 1’s roster but impossible to ignore, AFTER 2049 (October 3) unfolds at the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck. Italian electronic duo Mind Against leads a line-up that includes Ajna & Samm, Leon (FR), Milam, and Mo-Shi, all powered by Polygon Live’s 360-deg spatial audio system.
Tickets start at $149, but the setting — an open-air rooftop directly above the city’s circuit — makes it priceless. It’s the cult party that blurs the line between official and essential.
Patrón × Oracle Red Bull Racing Afterparty at Capitol Theatre
For one night only on 4 October, Capitol Theatre Kempinski sheds its heritage calm and transforms into a luxury playground for the Official Patrón × Oracle Red Bull Racing Afterparty. GAIAVIP brings together a heavyweight DJ lineup — Vidojean (SE), Faul & Wad (FR), and Oskar Med K (NO) — spinning house, Afro grooves, and cinematic sets against state-of-the-art sound and light design.
The experience comes drenched in a three-hour free-flow of Patrón, Grey Goose, and Bombay Sapphire, with the VVIP tier offering hospitality by Employees Only Singapore and free-flow culinary pairings.
Access ranges from General Entry at SGD 258 to Behind-the-Booth passes at SGD 498, while VVIP tables start from SGD 3,888. For a night that fuses racing’s adrenaline with tequila’s fire, this is where style and speed collide.
RaveDAO Singapore: ENL1GHT powered by DCS DeCard
For those who prefer grit to glamour, ENL1GHT (October 3) takes over Pasir Panjang Power Station. Headlined by Brazilian powerhouse Vintage Culture, ranked #9 on DJ Mag, with support from MORTEN and Jiayu, it is industrial heritage reborn as a rave temple.
Tickets start at $188 for General Admission, with DeCard holders enjoying fast-lane perks and event NFTs. It’s unapologetically raw — an underground counterpoint to champagne-drenched rooftops.
Mandala Mansion
Then comes Mandala Mansion, returning on October 5 with its boldest takeover yet. Across three levels at HighHouse and NOVA, Mandala Club combines 360-deg views of Marina Bay with limitless pours of Don Julio, Glenfiddich, Hendrick’s, champagne, and caviar.
The music is equally decadent: Jay Sean headlines, supported by DJ PBH, Nash.D, Jade Rasif, Jeremy Boon, and the Bangkok Invaders. More than a party, it’s a marathon of gastronomy, fireworks, and sonic energy that pushes race night into dawn.
Amber Lounge Singapore
And finally, the crown jewel. Amber Lounge returns on October 4 and 5 at Clifford Pier, The Fullerton Bay Hotel, as the official F1 afterparty presented by Moët & Chandon, as Jonas Blue, Jay Sean, and Vikkstar lead the line-up.
Still, the guest list is what makes it legendary: from Rihanna to Leonardo DiCaprio, Lewis Hamilton to Max Verstappen, this is where the world converges after the chequered flag.
The numbers reflect the prestige: Deluxe tables from $7,500, Silver from $16,800, Gold from $24,800, Platinum from $38,500, and Amber Suites from $45,000 — with the Diamond Suite available only on request. Individual VIP passes start at $850. It is the after-party of after-parties, where champagne never stops flowing and victory finds its true stage.
