It's that time of the year when everyone is talking about fun outdoor events, parties, and entertainment - summer! It's less than a month away and for those of us living in Southeast Asia, we are lucky since it's always summer! Nevertheless this time of year gives us the perfect excuse to host an outdoor party (or even better since this period is typically the driest with the lowest average rainfall). Often times, you won't get the best views of the city from sitting indoors, so perhaps a nice rooftop space would be a pleasant change of scenery for your classy corporate gatherings, networking events, or even casual drinks with friends.

We've put together a list of some of the best event spaces in Southeast Asia, designed to cater to any type of event concept you may be planning.

Manila

Picasso Hotel, Makati

Located in Makati, the major commercial and financial hub in Asia, this rooftop event space installed within the hotel inspired by one of the most influential artist of all time - Picasso, features an excellent integration of art and novelty in the design of the space. With the capacity to host 50 people and additional amenities such as add on catering and complimentary parking slots, this space makes it ideal to host a medium sized celebration or networking event in Manila with a cocktail reception.

Cebu


Henry Hotel, Cebu

Located in Cebu City, this event space is within the secure perimeter of a uniquely decorated hotel with a quirky vibe that has been named as the top 4 hotel in Cebu in 2017 and 2016 by TripAdvisor.

Jakarta
