During the Singapore F1 race week, Hypebeast brought its signature Dinner series to the region, inviting Japanese artist VERDY to fly to Singapore to co-host a dinner presented jointly by Marina Bay Sands and G-SHOCK. According to reports, the gathering attracted familiar faces such as SORN, Riot Boys, Yung Raja, and Mae Tan, who spent an evening mingling with friends and partners.
The event venue was set at the IMBA Theatre within Gardens by the Bay, a space in Singapore dedicated to immersive art and cultural experiences. As described, the on-site projections shifted with each course served, advancing the dining rhythm and visual atmosphere in sync.

Who provided the catering?
Catering duties were handled by Foura, an all-day dining destination tucked inside the glass greenhouses of Gardens by the Bay, featuring a menu that blends modern Asian and European flavors. Described as more intimate than the large-scale public events commonly seen during race week, the dinner fostered conversations among guests that lingered well after the final course.

What roles did Marina Bay Sands and G-SHOCK play?
As the presenting partner, Marina Bay Sands has been a landmark of Singapore's marine skyline since its opening in 2010, featuring three hotel towers with rooms and suites, Sands SkyPark, Sands Theatre, and the ArtScience Museum, while remaining close to the Marina Bay Street Circuit that defines the race weekend atmosphere. G-SHOCK participated as a joint presenting partner, allowing every guest to take home a souvenir: the all-black DW-5600UBB and the miniature ring version, G-SHOCK Nano.
One of the highlights of the evening was a gold G-SHOCK watch worn by VERDY, limited to just 10 pieces worldwide. Described as never having been released to the public, the model is reserved exclusively for VERDY's inner circle of friends. For collectors in attendance, this presented a rare opportunity to get an up-close look at one of the brand's elusive pieces.
