| Date | December 2019 |
| Venue | Amanpuri, Phuket |
| Guests | 400, international resort guests, VIPs and residents from Europe, the Middle East, the US and Asia |
| Scope | Full event production, AV, international talent booking, entertainment management and master billing |
For the 2019 festive season, Amanpuri wanted a New Year's Eve worthy of its reputation as one of the world's most exclusive resorts. A full evening journey from dinner to countdown to an after party people would still be talking about in January, plus refined Christmas Day event planning and event management for the families in residence.
Three factors made this demanding. First, the calendar: the busiest fortnight in Phuket, when every supplier, artist and technician on the island is booked out. Second, the talent: headline DJs and performers flying in from Ibiza, all needing contracts, flights, visas and fees handled flawlessly. Third, the venue itself: a serene luxury property where sound, staging and crew movement have to be invisible until the moment they are spectacular.
As the event agency Phuket trusted with full event production that season, we built the complete technical and entertainment backbone across both days:
| Time | What happened |
|---|---|
| 18:00 | Guests arrive to cocktails and acoustic sets on the main terrace. The pool was decked over to become the dining and show area |
| 19:30 | Gala dinner, with cirque style performers appearing between courses |
| 21:30 | Live art and interactive performances through the grounds |
| 22:00 | DJ Izy opens the after party at the Sunset Terrace, a separate area of the resort |
| 23:59 | Projection mapping countdown across the pavilion facade |
| 00:00 | Midnight, and DJ Ali Kuru takes over to start the new year |
| 05:00 | Close and silent strike begins |
Entertainment licensing, late night sound permissions and coordination for foreign performers were all arranged by our team well in advance, with the resort's own compliance office reviewing and approving every production plan before build started.
"I would build the projection rig a day earlier," says Shawn, our event director. "The show was flawless, but one more rehearsal night would have let Dylan and his design team program a second visual show for the after party hours."
Four hundred guests counted down to midnight as the building itself lit up around them. Behind the scenes it was a bigger machine than anyone saw: three days of build inside an operating resort, 45 crew across production and entertainment, 14 artists and performers flown in from Ibiza, and a midnight projection cue timed to the second. When a heavy island downpour hit the outdoor stage in the middle of the build, our crew re-sealed and re-tested every system and still opened on time, without a single guest knowing.
The resort's Director of F&B put it better than we ever could:
"I had the chance to work alongside talented Shawn and his team. I highly recommend him for any grand events: great organiser, trustworthy and very professional."
Enzo Cassini, Director of F&B / Head of Clubs, Amanpuri
One season, one New Year, and a night that set the standard for everything our DMC Phuket team has produced since.
Our event agency Phuket team ran this as one joined up job: event production for staging and the projection rig, our AV team for sound, light and LED, entertainment booking for every Heart Ibiza artist, and our DMC Phuket desk for flights, visas and master billing. Resorts planning festive programmes or corporate events in Phuket get the same single team.
Yes. For Amanpuri we booked headline talent through Heart Ibiza, handled all contracting and flew performers in from Europe. As a DMC Phuket team we manage the full chain: negotiation, travel, accommodation, technical riders and payment.
Yes. On this project every artist contract, flight and payout ran through us on the client's behalf, so the resort had one invoice and one point of contact instead of a dozen international suppliers.
That is exactly the environment we specialise in. Sound management, discreet crew movement and staged build windows are standard practice for our event production teams at five star properties.
Usually a gala dinner, live entertainment, a countdown moment with visual production, and an after party. The earlier you book, the better the talent and technical options, especially for December dates.
