We’ve all had our fair share of fun and entertainment through arcades, theme parks, water parks and
swimming pools with in-built slides for added adrenaline. We’ve even had an urban pop-up beach with a
5-storey tall water slide this year but if you think that is the best it could get, think again!
Coming to you this November, the global Slide the City event will finally be in sunny island
Singapore! With over 130 successful events held in the United States, we are excited to be part of the
Asia tour. If safety is your concern, fret not! The slides are made of vinyl and will be transported here
from the United States, and are padded with extra cushion for improved comfort. Are you at least
1.07m tall? If so, then slap on your sunscreen and grab your best swimsuits as you speed down the
massive three-lane 1,000ft slide for a family fun day in the sun. Accompanying the main highlight of the
Slide will also be local food & beverages
vendors, LIVE music and other carnival
activities to make this a once-in-a-
lifetime festival.
The Singapore edition of Slide the City
will take place from 25 to 27 November
2016, and is proudly organised by
Heroes, an event management firm
that aims to make a difference in
society by supporting charities and
causes close to their hearts by rallying
the help of everyday people within
our community (www.facebook.
