Samsung Makes a Splash at The Palace Pool Club

Samsung definitely made a splash in The Palace Pool Club as it celebrated its anniversary last April 15. 

The scene? Urbanites and party millennials trying to beat the summer heat and party the night away as DJs pumped out cascading beats; friends huddled in groups having a good time, drinks in hand; cameras flashing as everyone took a shot to capture the great night; and some quietly sipping their drink just taking everything in.

The party, co-presented by the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge, was graced by the show-stopping presence of celebrities such as Solenn Heussaff, Georgina Wilson, Liz Uy, BJ Pascual, JM Rodriguez, Charina Sarte, Phoemela Barranda, Dong Ronquillo, Gretchen Fullido, Nix Alanon, and Tim Yap. 

Also, it wouldn’t be a fitting Pool Club Anniversary Party if the booth wasn’t manned by a famous international DJ. The Palace Pool Club did not disappoint when they called on the services of DJ Deorro, the man behind hits such as Five Hours featuring Chris Brown, Flashlight, Yee, and I Can Be Somebody.

Amid the revelry, Samsung, as usual, stole the show with its Galaxy S7 Ambassadors. Gino Quillamor dared three party-goers—one to take a selfie while dancing, the other to take a selfie with a hot stranger, and the last to dare a friend to jump into the pool. On top of these, the final challenge saw seven lucky guests jump into the pool to find the hidden Galaxy S7 edge. Christopher de Chavez became the lucky new owner of the latest Samsung flagship device. 

Aside from the dares and challenges, the venue was also filled with waterfall displays where party-goers were able to test the new phones’ IP68 water resistance. Also, waterproof pouches were given out to those who don’t own a GalaxyS7 edge or S7!

“There’s no better way to showcase everything that the new Galaxy S7 edge and S7 has to offer than by being a part of The Palace Pool Club’s Anniversary Party where we get to put on the spotlight the fun, cool, and exciting new features our flagship smartphone,” ends Digs Dimagiba, Business Unit Head of IT and Mobile Division of Samsung Electronics Philippines.
