Sip on a refreshing cocktail or three while Amadei from Cliché Records spins his best disco tunes… it’s the sound of summer 2015, after all! A night out with the girls and some groovy tunes? Sounds like just the way to bring in the weekend… it’s time to make shapes on the dance floor!

Grab the girls, put those dancing shoes on and head over to rock it with the rapper!

Where: Bungalow, Shop 2, G/F, The Centrium, 60 Wyndham Street, Central, Hong Kong
