The Aqua by Grandstand is a party waiting for a place to happen. The pop-up nightclub is created out of a shipping container which expands into a 3-story portable yacht-like bar.
The bar can support a shindig of up to 500 partiers and is equipped with audio, visual and refreshment apparatus. Flotation rings decorate the lifeline railings surrounding the various decks, and the unit features portholes and shiny brass poles. Aqua is shaded by a giant white sail which also provides a backdrop for cool lighting effects.
The mobile celebration quarters are currently located in Singapore for the Sun Festival, which runs until November 5, 2008.
