That’s Entertainment

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

DMC knows how to show you the best time!

dmc_cp_0824A typical night’s entertainment with DMC usually starts with an exotic location and cocktail or two. You might find yourself perched high above Hong Kong on an open terrace at the Peak, or sailing across Hong Kong harbour on a traditional Chinese fishing junk taking in the dazzling light and laser show against the backdrop of towering high rise and city lights.

Then a meal in an exclusive restaurant is where the show really gets underway.  As an appetizer a group of Chinese artists create personalized gifts and souvenirs, with the main course followed by  Master Magician Harry Wong, who  delights and confounds  with his  fast paced patter and sleight of hand.

dmc_cp_0343The finale arrives with dessert as the wine sommelier and waiters burst into rigorous renditions of classic songs and operettas, surprising and enchanting guests for the rest of the evening.  The ’ Singing Waiters’ had been masquerading as staff and were actually members of a professional entertainment group  - another specially arranged and exclusive DMC  experience

teamdmc_9889_loAdrianne and her DMC team, Saivi, Gain and Wing, resplendent in the new Team DMC T-shirts, welcomed 72 guests from Melbourne, Australia to Hong Kong with a Buffet BBQ on the roof at Langham Place in Mongkok, recently. Another of DMC’s best kept Hong Kong secrets, Langham’s Backyard rooftop venue is fast becoming a very popular stop on DMC’s itinerary.

..and no Hong Kong welcome would be complete without the traditional lion dance  of course!

2010 Bledisloe Cup Hotel Packages from HK$3,812

Monday, July 19th, 2010

dmc_bc2DMC -THE Destination Management Company Hong Kong has been appointed by the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union (HKRFU) to sell Hotel and Reserved Seating Packages to this popular international one-of-a-kind sports event.

Founded in 1931, the Bledisloe Cup celebrates the hard fought rivalry between legendary international rugby giants, the Australian Wallabies and New Zealand’s All Blacks. Traditionally the Bledisloe Cup has always been played on home ground, but 2008 saw a match played outside the two countries for the first time in Hong Kong and then again in Tokyo in 2009.

This year the Bledisloe Cup returns to Hong Kong on Saturday, October 30, for the fast and furious fourth and final round. The All Blacks have taken the Cup home for the past six consecutive series and this year Australia intends to end this winning streak.

Will 2010 be the year of the Wallabies?

Be there to find out.

What do you do on a rainy day in Hong Kong?

Why DMC’s Amazing Race of course!

dmc_0985DMC recently showed 25 travel agents from Australia and New Zealand the cultural highlights of Tsim ShaTsui as only DMC can.  The agents from Down Under were visiting Hong Kong as guests of the Hong Kong Tourism Board to take in the sights and get the lowdown on Hong Kong’s latest attractions. So what better way to get to the inside scoop than a treasure hunt through the streets of Kowloon, taking in the Temple Street Market, the Jade Market, Tin Ha Temple, Flower and Bird Streets.

Despite monsoon showers the group split into five teams, maps and clue sheets in hand, and managed to navigate from cultural icon to cultural icon with fun and flair before returning to a the warm hospitality and a buffet lunch at Delaney’s Irish Pub. See Gallery

hong-kong-by-night3What do you do when you have 60 guests booked  for Hong Kong’s premier Harbour Cruise for champagne and cocktails to view  the fabulous City of Lights laser and light show, and suddenly the  Cruise Operator cancels because of torrential rain and thunderstorms?

You make sure your Destination Management Company is THE DMC.

THE DMC recently had exactly that happen. They had 60 guests from a South African bank an hour away from boarding the coaches to take them to  board  a private junk for Harbour Cruise and Cocktails when the skies opened, a Weather Alert was issued  and all harbour cruises were cancelled.


What to do?

A couple of fast phone calls and the coaches were re-routed to Quarterdeck on the Wanchai waterfront. DJ’s were dispatched, staff mobilized and THE DMC’s guests found themselves at one of Hong Kong’s top harbour-side restaurants , champagne and cocktails flowing and, once the rain stopped, overlooking the sparkling lights of Victoria Harbour where they danced the night away.
