Spent The Weekend Celebrating St. Patrick's Day In A Sea Of Green With GUINNESS

Hi Huneybees,

Woohoo! Huney'Z World was basking under the rainbow and partying with leprechauns amongst the huge pots of gold as we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with sea of green party people. 

Cheers to GUINNESS Stout for the amazing party planned with the week long celebration and their largest giveaway ever as they collaborated with Singtel's mWallet to treat everyone a glass of GUINNESS Stout each!

The Irish bars lined along Boat Quay was lighted up with so much fun, jeers and music, as we celebrated Ireland's public holiday. The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, as well as celebrating the heritage and culture of the Irish in general.

Like every year, there's a parade leading up to the concerts to entertain us as we mingle and enjoy the weekend with our friends. But nothing beats going around and seeing the family warmth as parents spend quality time with their kids. Maybe my little motherly love is overflowing, but all these dads carrying their babies, made me kept going "Awww~~~" throughout the event!

 

Aren't the kids just adorable?!

But of course, the partying is not just about the kids, there's also the amazing bond of coming together for a celebratory cause and that BFF bond is definitely priceless. I also had my best buddy joining me too! Hehehehe...

Though the weekend is over and it's back to work today, but don't forget to have GUINNESS in your parties! Cheers to another amazing week!

See you next year ~~~

The Fray Led 1,759 Fans Toasting To Arthur On Guinness Arthur’s Day

Hi Huneybees,

Last night 1,759 fans came together for the celebration of Guinness Arthur’s Day for the second time in Singapore, with double platinum record artists The Fray. Singapore joined over 55 countries and an estimated 1.7 million people across the world to celebrate the fifth year that Guinness Arthur’s Day has been celebrated globally.

The Arthur’s Day celebration was set up in 2009 to coincide with the 250th anniversary of the signing of the original lease at St. James’s Gate, Dublin – the home of GUINNESS.

Partying in a specially constructed pint-shaped concert arena at The Promontory@Marina Bay, guests at the concert enjoyed an epic set by the Denver alternative-rock band, and were also entertained by local band Ellipsis – winners of the ‘Play on the Day’ competition who kicked off the night’s revelry.

Opening their sets with their popular songs -  "Syndicate", "All at Once" & "You Found Me" got the fans high singing along to their songs and during the first song, the Guinness Arthur’s Day backdrop came down to reveal a transparent screen that allowed for views of the illuminated Marina Bay and the breath-taking Singapore skyline, making it all so romantic and intimate...

The Fray also led the the huge crowd of fans and invited guests in the signature toast to “To Arthur”, celebrating GUINNESS’ founder Arthur Guinness who was distinctive, bold and epitomizes the concept “Made of More”. "CHEERS TO ARTHUR!!!"

The band, who are in the mixing and editing stage of their fourth studio album, even performed a sneak peek of the upcoming album, debuting for the first time outside the U.S., much to the audience’s delight! Their new songs "Hold My Hand" and "Wherever This Goes", were thrown into the crowd-swaying mix, along with their award-winning tunes "How to Save a Life", "Never Say Never", "You Found Me" and "Over my Head (Cable Car)", amongst others.

At the concert, the table of mystery Singapore-specific artifacts that were hidden at the GUINNESS by the Decades’ Exhibition were also revealed. I didn't know they even had flask memorabilia manufactured! It's amazing how extensive the collection is.... 

For post-event updates about the Guinness Arthur’s Day Concert, fans are reminded to visit the GUINNESS Singapore Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Guinness.SG. 

GUINNESS should be enjoyed on Arthur’s Day, and any other occasion, responsibly.
