An unforgettable night with favourite Hong Kong film stars Julian Cheung and Charmaine Sheh 

Singapore - The Skating Rink at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands will once again transform into a star-studded venue for fans of the award-winning Hong Kong drama serial Triumph in the Skies on 16 February, 8:00pm. As the only venue in Singapore to host the premiere and red carpet for the highly-anticipated blockbuster movie, Marina Bay Sands is set to raise the fanfare by inviting everyone to be a part of the electrifying atmosphere and get a closer glimpse of Hong Kong stars Julian Cheung and Charmaine Sheh.

Located at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, the Skating Rink will offer fans a 360 degree vantage point from the multi-level surroundings, making it an ideal location for star-gazing for all ages. The activities on the red-carpet will also include an interactive component where fans will have the opportunity to win exclusive movie merchandise by answering trivia questions about the movie posed by the emcee.

Triumph in the Skies is a Hong Kong movie adapted from the popular drama series, which tells an aspirational story of the lives of a group of pilots and flight attendants. The movie, which centers on three different romantic story arcs, stars a solid cast of Hong Kong's biggest acts, including Louis Koo, Sammi Cheng, Francis Ng, Julian Cheung, Charmaine Sheh and Kuo Tsai Cheh.

We kicked off 2015 with Michael Buble and Broadway musical CATS, and will continue to bring in many other entertainment events – such as these regional blockbuster movie premieres – that will add depth and variety to our multi-layered entertainment strategy.”
