Today marks the first day of our second year in Singapore! We look back with fondness at seven junctures in our whirlwind adventure of a first year growing as a ticketing platform from the ground-up here. Read on and reminisce with us!<\/p>\n

It’s official, Peatix<\/a> launches in Singapore on 31.07.13<\/strong>
\nOne year ago, a co-founder of Peatix together with four young Singaporeans launched Peatix in Singapore eager to make a contributive impact to our local events scene.<\/p>\n

\"Peatix,<\/p>\n

The launch party was a mosh pit of change-makers, crafters, makers, entrepreneurs, creatives, and more – all with one commonality, that in their capacity, they organise events driven by passion for many to appreciate, enjoy and participate.<\/p>\n

The inaugurals<\/strong>
\nOur inaugural year in Singapore also saw the emergence of many experimental event concepts! Our sunny island is brimming with creativity and we’ve had the privilege to be a part of the action\u2026 <\/p>\n

\"Peatix,<\/p>\n

Creating a diverse, vibrant, and collaborative events community<\/strong>
\nBackstage Pass, an event where Singapore’s local community of organisers gather to be inspired and to connect. We’ve organised six sessions in a year to popular reception and resounding support from our community – check them out at #1<\/a>, #2<\/a>, #3<\/a>, #4<\/a>, #5<\/a>, #6<\/a>. Organising Backstage Pass is one way we give back and we sincerely hope that for those who’ve attended, you’ve managed to take away something valuable.<\/p>\n

\"Backstage<\/p>\n

We’re not stopping at six, so keep a look out for our next one and join in the fun!<\/p>\n

Pea-chan got acquainted with Singapore<\/strong>
\nBe it with the sights and sounds of familiar destinations, or with friendly locals at events – Pea-chan (yes we have a company mascot) loved soaking it all in. He’s even met with President Dr. Tony Tan! Well, sort of.<\/p>\n

\"Pea-chan's<\/p>\n

Calling three eclectic neighbourhoods home<\/strong>
\nFirst it was The Hub at Somerset, then it was Robertson Quay, and now Bugis! We thrive best off-beat.<\/p>\n

\"Peatix<\/p>\n

Hitting a milestone of 200 concurrent events hosted on the Peatix ticketing platform before turning one!<\/strong>
\nDid you know there were that many events<\/a> to attend in Singapore? And the number keeps growing.<\/p>\n

\"One<\/p>\n

Ready to take on the next year, empowering more organisers and enriching more events<\/strong>
\nIn the past year, we’ve introduced tools<\/a> that help to promote and sell-out events. We plan to do more, much more. Keep watch!<\/p>\n

\"Peatix<\/p>\n

So with that, thank you, organisers of Singapore, for allowing us to be a part of your events and giving us a sneak peak into what it’s like to live the lives of different pockets of communities here. Three cheers to you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
