Join us on the Genting Dream and find out what it means to be a sneakerhead, as we introduce to you all things-sneakers-related. The specially created Sneaker Street at sea on Genting Dream features a series of amazing graffiti art, including a giant sneaker painting by Singapore’s Yen from HTFU and Jeranne from ABSNC, as well as limited edition and vintage sneaker collections on display. Vacationers on board will also have the chance to own a variety of sneaker collection, including limited edition sneakers from top international brands that will be available for sale to satisfy your personal sneaker additions.
Besides that, guests can also take part in many fun-filled activities and workshops related to street culture and arts. These include customizing and painting your kicks with Louis Ong, a renowned artist from Malaysia. Your kicks customization does not end with painting of your sneakers, as we’ll also teach you to master the different and cool techniques to do your kicks’ lacing.
From kicks, you’ll discover more street culture that include explosive street dance and hip hop performances from amazing talents that will Wow you all the way while at sea. But don’t just be a spectator, as we have workshops for you to pick up and learn new dancing hip hop skills.
