MEDIA INVITE : The Music Run™ by AIA 2016

HEY ! The Music Run™ by AIA is back again to Singapore on this year which gotta
ROCK our heart pumping and beat it together on 23 April 2016 at Sentosa.

The second edition of The Music Run™ by AIA is an immersive 5k fun run that puts music
at the heart of the experience. Over 120 concert quality speakers pumping out over
150,000 watts of music will line the running course, known as ‘The Sound Track’, across five interactive
and music themed zones – Rock, Pop, Old School, Hip Hop and Dance.

Participants get to decide the music that they want to listen to during the run by voting
online for their favourite hits using a bespoke music selection app created with digital
music partner, Spotify. The songs with the most votes make the official soundtrack of the run.

Attended the Launch Party and i was having a great evening at WOOBAR, W Singapore.

It would be your guys turn soon ! At the event, before the running starts, Music Runners
can chill out at the mobile WOOBAR by W Singapore Sentosa Cove or get their hearts
pumping with a game of foosball at the Chill out Zone. Official Fitness Partner, Fitness First,
will be leading the warm-up to ramp up the excitement level!

Cocktails, juice, wine and great food were served on the day of Launch Party together
with the sharing details of the excited ultimate 5K running and music festival.

I would cover more details of THIS FUN RUNNING & MUSIC FESTIVAL on below.

Oh Well ! It is a noodle facing towards a nice view from W Hotel Singapore.
