Centro Going-Away Party

Saturday, June 11 Centro held its "Going Away" party on June 11, 2011. The long-running Kerry Centre Hotel bar was closing down temporarily to allow for a significant renovation, with the new-look Centro - featuring an outdoor terrace area - expected to open in late August 2011. Around 400 guests sipped cocktails and partied into the wee small hours, enjoying live music from jazz singer Tabitha King and electro tunes from Singapore-based DJ Jon White. The bar also held a "My Cocktail, I Decide" auction, allowing guests to bid for the right to name a cocktail on Centro's forthcoming new drinks list. The auction raised a total of RMB 43,000 for charity Children's Hope Family, with one cocktail going under the hammer for RMB 22,000.
