Dancing Under the Stars feat Opolopo
at Cloud Lounge
The luxuriant rooftop Cloud Lounge is one of those places that looks amazing but isn’t much “fun,” unless they’re holding a big event with a big name DJ. This should be one of those events. Opolopo is a heavy hitter from Sweden. Down with the funk, boogie, house, and soul sounds, he knows how to keep things classy while gearing up the groove which should make him a perfect fit for Cloud Lounge.
Starts 10pm. FDC Rp 200k. Cloud Lounge, 49th floor, The Plaza Office Building, JL. MH Thamrin kav 28-30. (021) 29922450
