It's been more than a month since Adult Playground (click HERE to find out more about it) was over! After all the Tertiary social marketing we did, it was finally down to the actual event on the 8th of November @ Siloso Beach. So glad everything went pretty smoothly that day! :)
Our drinks stall! It was so hectic from 2pm onwards as the sun showed no mercy:
Check out that Jetpack go high above the waters! And apparently that was my friend on it hahahah:
Sadly, The Travelling C.O.W. didn't sell their signature Ramen Burger that day :(
Yu Wei (the guy on that Jetpack hahaha) and Bev:
Jiamin!:
My #brunchdategirls, missing Jo and Yan:
The live bands (Still Sunrise, Gareth Fernandez, The Sam Willows, Jack & Rai and Gentle Bones) did a great job providing awesome music for everyone the whole day!
JUMP! I love how we all jumped so differently w/o planning hahah:
Still Sunrise and The Sam Willows did another set each as the sun went down, and everything wrapped up at 8pm:
Hope everyone had fun that day despite the crazy sun + long queues!! :)
Sponsored by the Singapore Tourism Board, Adult Playground (APG) is the world’s FIRST and LARGEST outdoor adventure festival (for ages 18 and above) that brings together sports, music and food.
With 22 unique sporting activities (both wet and dry) in one venue, you can locals, expats, and tourists coming together for a full day of fun-filled activities!
Sporting Activities
Some of the activities that day will include:
Bubble Soccer - this activity shouldn't be unfamiliar as it has gained popularity recently! Form a team of 5 to 8 and challenge the opposing team by scoring as many goals as possible, while being covered in a ball (your legs are still free so you can run and bounce across the beach)!
Giant Water Slide:
Mega Bounce - ever dreamt of performing gravity-defying flips and turns? Try this! A bungee-assisted trampoline where you can leap 20 feet (8 metres) high and descend safely:
Jiamin and I tried it myself while hosting APG's Youtube video for Megabounce hehe. It was really FUNNNNNN (though scary for me initially)! Catch us on Adult Playground's Youtube channel for more too!:
Here's the highly-anticipated Jetpack (worth S$228, limited slots available)! Ever thought of flying? Well, now you can! The Jetpack harnesses the power of controlled water pressure to propel you into the air.
(Pssst! Find out how to win tickets by following us on our Instagram (@adultplaygroundsg) and Facebook page!):
Banana Rocker:
Speedminton - a fast-paced version of your classic Badminton, plus a hybrid shuttlecock-ball that can battle the outdoor wind and speed across faster than your conventional shuttlecock:
I had a chance to try it myself recently too! Catch me in action here:
Slacklining - similar to tightrope walking, except this uses nylon/ polyester webbing which allows stretching and bouncing. Attempt tricks and stunts on it if you dare!:
Gyrospin - this gets you spinning and spinning and spinning in different orientations - definitely not for the faint-hearted!:
Archery Tag -
Catch Jiamin and I battle each other out - Hunger Games style:
... amongst many others like Dodgeball, Dunk tank, Bossaball and Wheelchair Basketball! (For more information/FAQs, click HERE)
The Bands
To promote Singapore’s local music scene and increase the exposure of local bands, the APG has also invited The Sam Willows, Jack & Rai, Gentle Bones, Still Sunrise and Gareth Fernandez to share their music on that day! Fans of theirs, be sure to head down to show them your support.
1. With a focus on sustainable produce, slowcooked food and using "a ridiculous amount of herbs in our food to bring maximum nutrients and anti-oxidants to your food", Kerbside Gourmet/Kerby will be feeding the health-conscious crowd.
2. The Travelling C.O.W. is the 1st mobile food truck in Singapore. Renowned for their ramen burger, they are always on the hunt for the yummiest food to share with you, so I'm sure they will not disappoint at the APG!
3. Chill down on a hot day with Popaganda's ice pops! They are made from scratch with NO artificial sweeteners, flavouring or preservatives. Dairy-free and 100% vegetarian. I tried a few of their flavours the other day, and I really loved their Grape, Coconut and Strawberry Banana! :9
Are all these enough to entice you already? Wait no more. Get your tickers now!
