Relocation of Layout



After so much trouble getting premission, the whole layout has been relocated as above pictures. Stages, food stalls and water points are all located in this area. It's better. This will really be different with other SG Thingyan. It is similar to how we celebrate Thingyan in Myanmar. We will give you the feeling of real Myanmar Thingyan. We hope you all will like it. However, due to relocation, there will be limited tickets. But, we don't see it as a problem. :)

Thank You

Hi Everyone!

Thank you all for supporting us so much. And, we promise you that you will have the feeling of REAL MYANMAR THINGYAN.

We try as close as possible. While watching the performance of thingyan dances, cheers and stageshow of famous Myanmar singers, you can splash water each other happily and have different myanmar foods for 2 whole days. Water will be provided WHOLE DAY. Performances and StageShow will also be Whole Day. We may even give away some water guns for early birds.

MediaCorp from Singapore, Today, ESPN, MTV and a few other media will be coming to take news of how we celebrate our Myanmar New Year in Singapore.

So, among the foreigners, lets show together how we celebrate our Thingyan. It is real Myanmar Thingyan and it's never been in Singapore or outside Myanmar before. So...

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have any questions, pls post as comments here.

Q1. How is the seating plan for two prices?
There is no seating plan. The two prices are for two different days. It will be in open field, including the stageshow, and there will be no seats. You can go around and do whatever you want and sit wherever you want. It is like in Myanmar Thingyan, we watch performances and stageshow, splash water, shout and play, eat around, sit around. However, there will be a few chairs at the food straws ( you can see the Stage from there also) and a tent with some chairs will be provided for some older people.

Pls see the post below to see the overall location.


Q2. Why the price is different for two days?
It is based on the performances. Day 1 (28/04/2007) is with Zaw One, Cho Pyone and performances and stageshow from local(Sg) talents. Day 2 (29/04/2007) is with Lazy Club, Big Bag & a lot other singers, and their stageshow will be alomst THE WHOLE DAY (it's worth more than this price).

Furthermore, Day 1 is also for those who want to enjoy real Myanmar Thingyan, may be big family with a few children, but don’t want to pay the premium price to watch the stageshow. For those, current promotion of S$10 is affordable. Even if you go out and watch the movie for 2 hours, it might cost you more.


Q3. What do you mean by “5kg extra from MAI, 10 tickets”? Is it 10 air tickets with 5kg extra?
No, you have to buy the air ticket by yourself from MAI. With this lucky draw prize, you can get extra 5kg (e.g. original 30kg + extra 5kg) as allowable luggage when you buy from MAI, Singapore – Yangon ticket.

However, there are 2 lucky draws for 2 FREE return air tickets (SG – YGN, without extra 5kg) from MAI on 29th (Day 2). You do NOT need to pay and buy any air ticket for these two tickets.

Q4. Are the foods from food stall free? Is it included in the ticket?
No, you need to buy by cash on the day itself. The ticket price is already very cheap considering you can watch stageshow for almost whole day with these famous singers, can eat different Myanmar foods in one place, splash water as much as you want. You need to pay minimum S$30 – S$40 for other stageshows about 3 hours with a few singers.

Q5. Is it organized by Myanmar Club (Singapore)?
No. It is NOT organized by Myanmar Club (Singapore). It is organized by Sherwood Entertainment (organizers from Just Music Show with Sai Sai Group, Ye Lay, No & Bambino in July 2006 and Classical Music and Traditional Dance in Dec 2006).

Myanmar Club supports this event as an event for the whole Myanmar Community in Singapore.


Specially asked Questions. (we will try to answer the questions asked as comments here)

Q1. What will be a control over the crowd? What are the control measures in the event of hostility? Is there any contingency plan in the event of any thread such as bomb thread by terrorist? In summary, how safe is this event? Is the organizer able to control the above mentioned undesired incident?

We hope that nothing will happen. However, everything regarding security has been taken care of. If you are from SG, you sould know that this kind of outdoor event couldn't do without proper licence and that licence cannot get without proper planning. Once the licence is issued, the neighborhood police will be informed and will do the necessary precautionary measures. Furthermore, we outsourced our own security to Cisco and another security firm. So, we can assure you that this event is save.

However, this is the event without any politic or religon and we dont think the terrorist will be interested in this event. :)
