"SWEET SOIREE" opening night party featured live music from SWITCH, DJ dickontempo along with signature sweet cocktails and canapés

Mainland China’s first W Hotel, W Guangzhou, welcomed over hundreds of trendsetting and vibe-seeking hipsters to SWEET SOIREE, the official launch of WOOBAR™. The sugar-infused opening night party featured hot tunes from local DJ sensation dickontempo and smooth moves from the all-girl Korean party band, SWITCH as well as a specialty menu of sweet cocktails and canapés.

“Come and be wooed by WOOBAR, where we are redefining cocktail hour,” said Brian Segrave, General Manager of W Guangzhou. “More than just a space to meet and greet, WOOBAR is a place to experience a stunning selection of spirits, clever cocktails, and Guangzhou’s best Martini.”

Savvy and stylish, mainland China’s first W Hotel is embracing the evolving and eclectic character of Guangzhou, and giving it a new, modern polish. Starting with an iconic design, ideal location and stylish amenities, W Guangzhou is already making a big splash on the city’s party scene with a selection of cutting edge destination lounges and clubs that showcase W’s passion for design, fashion and music.

Leading with a design by Yabu Pushelberg, WOOBAR turns the typical hotel lobby lounge upside down with provocative – yet functional – art installations, Guangzhou’s first and only sunken bar, live DJ’s, stylish Happenings, and a menu of timeless and original cocktails and delectable nibbles. Under the direction of W Guangzhou’s Liquid Manager, Lionel Lottier, WOOBAR™ offers a breathtaking selection of brand spirits and drinks – many exclusive to W – that are introducing a new cocktail culture for Guangzhou. WOOBAR’s mixologists serve up classic and clever cocktails, including W Guangzhou’s signature Martini, alongside an extensive international selection of beer and wine and delicious canapés and small plates.

“Satisfy your sweet tooth and experience our sweet destination at WOOBAR,” said Lottier, an award-winning master mixologist with more than a decade in the industry. “We’re delighted to offer Guangzhou’s visitors and adventurous locals an experience like no other – with the city’s first sunken bar, an amazingly techno visual design, and an addictive, uber chic vibe.”

For SWEET SOIREE, Lionel created a menu of sweet cocktails that tantalized the taste buds and energized the night. Lionel’s selections included Love2U with vanilla-infused Belvedere Vodka and strawberry liqueur; the Mangwoo, with amaretto and mango liqueurs and a cherry on top; the Rosemary Switch with JWB whisky, rosemary syrup and cranberry juice. To sweeten the deal, guests could nibble on Florentines, biscuits, honey custard, truffle slices, ice cream and candied popcorn.

The evening was energized with performances from SWITCH, the Korean all-girl sensational party band as well as dickontempo, Guangzhou’s hottest club DJ. dickontempo is best known as the resident DJ for browNsugaR, South China’s hugely popular party label. His unique progressive-house rhythms have earned him fans all over the region.
