Shangri-la Hotel

  • New Year’s Eve Event | 31 December 2009 | Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney

    Private event for 80 guests to celebrate the end of this decade and see in 2010. For the third time DJ:Plus! Entertainment has been privileged to have been selected to provide the entertainment for this event. Held biennially, the Cambridge Rooms located on the 3rd floor of the Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney was once again selected as the venue. The Cambridge Rooms overlooks the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Opera House and city skyline – a perfect venue to view both the 9.00pm and midnight New Year’s Eve fireworks display.

    The theme for the 2009 NYE celebration was “Awaken The Spirit” and all Sydneysiders were encouraged to wear a touch of blue. The fireworks were synchronised to a soundtrack featuring music from movies and pop songs.

    Guests at the event enjoyed a fabulous buffet, fireworks and dancing into the early hours – a fun time for all. The event was hosted by a very prominent business executive. To respect wishes for privacy, there are no photographs or videos in this post which depict any guests at this event. It was certainly a great honour to be asked to provide the entertainment for this celebration once again.

  • Corporate Event | 8 February 2008 | Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney

    Farewell/Retirement Event for corporate executive after 37 years of service with the organisation. Held at the Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney in the Cambridge Rooms, the retirement dinner was attended by 45 guests which consisted of colleagues and their partners. In addition to DJ:Plus! Mobile Disco Entertainment, the retiree was the subject of a comedy hoax by comedian Rodney Marks which was enjoyed immensely by all present. Rodney’s act is unique in that he arrives at an event in character, and mingles with attendees. He attends pre-dinner drinks and dinner and works the room. This mixing establishes the credibility of Rodney’s comic character. At some agreed point, he will be called to a lectern to deliver a “keynote address”. During the delivery of this presentation, audience members slowly realise that they have been had – as the retiree found out.

  • New Year’s Eve Event | 31 December 2007 | Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney

    Private celebration for 100 guests to celebrate the end of 2007 and see in 2008. Held at the Shangri-La Hotel, Sydney in the Cambridge Rooms located on the 3rd floor. The Cambridge Rooms has views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Opera House and of the Sydney skyline – a perfect venue to witness the New Year’s Eve fireworks display.

    The 2007 NYE display was fifteen months in the planning culminating in a much anticipated 12 minutes of intense fireworks involving 30,000 effects, six barges located across the harbour, eight City buildings and, of course, the famous arches and roadways of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The entire pyrotechnics show was synchronised with a soundtrack which reflected the 2007 theme “The Time Of Our Lives”.

    Guests at the event enjoyed a fabulous buffet, fireworks and dancing into the early hours – a fun time for all. The event was hosted by a very prominent business executive and attended by high profile guests. To respect their privacy, there are no photographs or videos in this post which depict any guests at this event. It was certainly a great honour to be asked to provide the entertainment for this celebration once again (DJ:Plus! provided the entertainment for another similar NYE event hosted by this businessman in 2005).
