Fashion for Cancer 2024: Bringing Hope to the Runway
Brief:
Fashion for Cancer 2024 was an extraordinary charity event aimed at raising awareness and funds for cancer survivors. Hosted at The Westin Singapore, the show featured a runway graced by cancer survivors who modelled with resilience and strength. Encore, as the in-house AV production partner at The Westin Singapore, was tasked with creating a stunning atmosphere through lighting, audio, and vision, while supporting the event’s emotional and inspirational theme. This was a particularly meaningful show, founded by Ong Bee Yan in memory of her son, Rong Liang, who passed away from pancreatic cancer at 38.
The Solution:
The Westin Singapore’s elegant ballroom provided the perfect backdrop for Fashion for Cancer 2024, with its grand dimensions ideal for the runway. Encore was responsible for transforming the space to align with the event’s inspiring theme, bringing the runway to life with creative lighting design and seamless audio-visual production.
Despite being the venue’s first collaboration with a volunteer-driven charity, Encore’s experience and expertise ensured that the coordination between all parties was smooth. The lighting design added a warm glow to match the tone of hope and resilience, while precise audio ensured that both live performances and emotional speeches were heard clearly. The AV elements were tailored to create an uplifting yet reflective mood throughout the evening.
The Result:
Fashion for Cancer Singapore 2024 was a resounding success, celebrated by over 350 guests. The evening was filled with emotional moments, from heartfelt stories of strength to dazzling fashion displays, all supported by Encore’s flawless production. Live performances by artists like Nathan Hartono, Yahui, and Joie Tan further elevated the event, leaving attendees moved and inspired.
Encore’s dedication to the cause was evident in every aspect of the event’s delivery. By leveraging their expertise in AV and lighting design, Encore contributed to an unforgettable night that celebrated resilience and beauty. This event not only honoured the lives affected by cancer but also highlighted the spirit of hope, community, and togetherness.
Both Fashion for Cancer Singapore and The Westin Singapore were thrilled with the results, and the event left a lasting impact on everyone involved, from organisers to guests.
“Fashion for Cancer Singapore 2024 was more than just a charity event; it was a powerful celebration of resilience, strength, and hope. Encore played an integral role in bringing our vision to life. Their expertise in AV production, lighting, and sound created an atmosphere that was perfectly matched to the spirit of the evening. From the emotional speeches to the live performances, every element flowed seamlessly thanks to Encore’s flawless execution. Their dedication to the cause was truly heartwarming, and their professionalism ensured everything ran smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better partner to help make this event so memorable. Encore’s contribution made a lasting impact on our guests and reminded us all of the power of coming together for a greater purpose.” – Ong Bee Yan — Fashion for Cancer Singapore
