Ice Bar’s Clash of The Titans New Year’s Party series was arguably one of the biggest new year’s eve parties Borneo has ever seen.

If you haven’t read the marketing blurb yet, you can refer back to the event’s main page, but it was pretty much everything they promised: the 6000 megawatts, the dancers, the DJs, you name it.

1,500 party people attended the New Year’s Eve edition of Clash of The Titans at Ice Bar 1Borneo, whilst a more modest number of party goers attended the 1st of January edition, but on both nights you couldn’t help but marvel at the quality of the entertainment line-up, DJ performances the like of which you rarely see in Sabah.

Having attended a party elsewhere on New Year’s Eve, I was fortunate enough to attend the 1 January party. Along with 3 friends we entered at just before 10pm at about the same time as the dancing acts were about to start.

Royal Phantom took over the centre stage with break dancing and beat-boxing and got the crowd going. After that the one DJ after the other was on fire and we thoroughly enjoyed the music.

Even though New Year’s Eve had been a monster night, time flew and we left Ice Bar when things were quieting down at around 3.30am. Good on Ice Bar for being brave enough to put on 2 huge parties 2 nights in a row and making a success of them.

I’ve heard many people say already that if this is what they’re doing next year, they want to buy the tickets soon. 2010 is bound to be bigger than ever.

As promised, party planner Renaissance of Borneo delivered one of Kota Kinabalu’s most high-profile parties on Thursday, 17 December.

With subtle lighting, the KK Waterfront’s biggest night club, B.E.D. (Best Entertainment Destination) was transformed into a pastel-coloured playground, which accentuated the size of the venue and gave impact to the theme, Elegance in White.

Chivas, as one of the main sponsors, had a Welcome Drink Station set up at the entrance and party goers were greeted with a shot of Chivas and a mixer of their choosing.

True to Sabah’s party spirit, those who attended Elegance in White stayed true to the theme of white and the venue slowly filled with beautiful people wearing a manner of all-white and partly-white outfits.

DJ Ash got the crowd going with some bopping tunes before DJ Fine China took over the reigns to put his own particular spin on the party.

Although Elegance in White perhaps fell a little short of the descriptions in the press releases, it was an overall success and Borneo looks forward to future events organised by Renaissance of Borneo.
