Shanghai Expat Events and Announcements Newsletter
Hello [fname]
Welcome to the weekly event newsletter of ShanghaiExpat! Now that Mother’s Day is over you might feel full and lazy after having a relaxed weekend. Do you feel the urge of going out and exploring Shanghai’s on a different way, now that you know so many restaurants and have pampered your sense of taste with various multicultural dishes in Shanghai? After some days of chilling there are probably some ants in your pants. We got in contact with MIRAGE events to find a way of getting rid of those creepy-crawlies.
M.A.N.D.Y. is what we found. Got to SIN Lounge and shake them off! Enjoy a night full of glamour and chic in one of Shanghai’s most sophisticated and famous clubs! MIRAGE proudly presents some stunning DJs spinning the records to breathtaking house tunes. Get a pre-sale ticket for only 100RMB and get loose in a world full of bliss, endorphins and luxury.
You don’t want to dance a night away and prefer spending time with your family outdoor? No problem! Grab you little ones and go to the second Children’s Spring Bazaar at O’Malleys! For your children they offer an outdoor activity area while you can buy some nice presents for them or enjoy O’Malleys offered food.
Would you like to be filled with adrenaline and fight for winning a race? Then don’t miss our International Dragon Boat Race 2009 on the 24th of May! Paddle for your team on a misty 3 km waterway in suburban Qingpu district to reach as fast as possible the finish line.
