When we think of Havaianas, we imagine the beach, the sun and lots of fun filled activities – it’s not dubbed the best rubber flip-flops for nothing. So when Havaianas distributor Marga Nograles met with us and proposed a club event for their brand, we were ecstatic! Because we have to admit, Fishtank Productions is better at dancing and drinking than running around sweating under the sun.
Imagine: black and white ambience, chandelier, disco balls, laser lights, purple highlights and glitters. Cocktails, mash up music, bright lights and games. Not your typical Havaianas event.
The anticipation for this event’s festivities was bubbling in the air from the minute we went inside Marco Polo’s Jade Ballroom… Noel Tanza of Golden Touch is a genius when it comes to transforming a venue – from formal Asian inspired room to just plain fabulous in a matter of hours.
Guests were welcomed by a sumptuous hors d’ oeuvre buffet and overflowing drinks courtesy of Marco Polo.
We set up game booths for the guests to enjoy, the Havaianas Roulette and the Havaianas Shooter. It may be your ordinary carnival games but can you win your favourite flip-flops at the carnival? No siree! So women in high heels and men in long sleeves dared to be kids and spent the night spinning the wheel and tossing balls in a cup. The games were quite a spectacle and gave Las Vegas a run for their money!

On the deck were DJ Nina Saputil and DJ Steal who flew all the way from Manila just hours before the party. We love you guys! Aside from the complete comradeship between the artists, the place was overflowing with energy and excitement, resulting in mass amounts of dancing, flirting and of course, drinking.
As the party came to a close, we couldn’t help but feel like we had witnessed something special. Like Christmas, we know, we know, it’s not the same thing… but Havaianas Black Velvet was definitely an extraordinary experience for all of us – where else can you find women dressed to kill swapping their killer heels for comfortable flip-flops?
