Singapore - voco hotels – a premium collection brand from IHG Hotels & Resorts – will present its first pop up in Singapore along Orchard Road from Thursday, 20 January 2022 to Wednesday 26 January 2022. Two activations will be located outside ION Orchard and voco Orchard Singapore. Consumers will be able to access collaboration content produced by local creatives and brands at the pop up. They are also invited to participate in a staycation social giveaway with an opportunity win 52 weekends of stays at voco Orchard Singapore and more prizes.

voco hotels are bold, contemporary and inviting, with playful touches throughout. The pop-up will introduce highlights of a typical voco hotel room – think plush bedding and a cosy nook, which encourage guests to indulge in ‘Me Time’.

Introduced for the first time in Singapore, voco hotels bedding makes use of over 150 recycled plastic bottles, turning plastic waste into a sustainable sleep. The fabric that cases the voco hotels bedding is also produced in line with the Better Cotton Initiative to support sustainable cotton harvesting.

The name, voco, means ‘to invite’ and ‘call together’, representing the brand’s thoughtful and playful nature, and ability to offer meaningful connection. The vibrancy and playfulness of voco Hotels attracts guests who are confident to be themselves; in line with this philosophy, throughout the duration of the pop-up, voco hotels invited local creatives and brands to spend time inside the hotel room, doing what they do best. Unapologetically themselves, they will use the room to create, unwind, and simply be.

The line-up includes:

David Yeung | Friday, 21 January, 5pm-6pm

Campari Brand Ambassador, David Yeung, will be conducting a live cocktail masterclass, walking viewers through the cocktail conceptualisation process of one of voco Orchard Singapore’s Signature Cocktails, featuring Wild Turkey Bourbon. David will also foray into the history of Orchard Road and Nutmeg—the essence that ties in voco Orchard Singapore’s mission to always “Stay Interesting”.

Rawbought ( @rawboughtshop ) | Saturday, 22 January, 2pm-5pm

The Rawbought team will pose, pout and lounge for an exclusive photoshoot in the brand's signature premium loungewear clothing. Sustainably made renowned for its lushness, quality and comfort, Rawbought makes staying in fashionable and fabulous, and most importantly, sustainable.

Brandon Chong ( @branstands ) | Sunday, 23 January, 3pm-4pm

Brandon Chong, Movement and Mindful Coach, Lululemon Legacy ambassador and wellness expert, will conduct a 1-hour Ying Yoga Session virtually. A slower form of yoga, Yin Yoga is the perfect restorative activity when paired with mindfulness to reinvigorate, relax and refresh the mind, body and soul

Jeffrey Kong ( @artisanbricks ) | Monday, 24 January, 9am-12pm

Jeffrey Kong is a local artist who creates with building bricks as an art medium. The founder of Artisan Bricks loves to spread the joy of the brick with sculptures, building kits and workshops. Catch him in this live building session in the voco Hotels pop-up room, where he will build an exclusive model of the newly-opened voco Orchard Singapore with thousands of Lego bricks.
