(Client's Story) Food & Fun on Family Day at Quayside Mall

On a breezy afternoon on 7th September 2024, Traworld had the pleasure of organising a vibrant Family Day event for our client at Quayside Mall. Excitement filled the air as our team, working diligently, completed the event setup two hours before the festivities were due to begin. Everything was in place to ensure a smooth and enjoyable day for families to create lasting memories together.

3:00 - 4:00 pm

Participants began arriving with their families and were warmly welcomed with thoughtful gifts to add comfort to their day. Each family received a delightful picnic basket, complete with an umbrella, picnic mat, wet wipes, and a portable hand-held fan, making it the perfect kit for an afternoon of outdoor activities.

Registration went off without a hitch, as participants collected their food coupons, bottled water, and wristbands for access to the various games and activities in the outdoor area of Quayside Mall.

4:00 - 5:30 pm

The event was in full swing, with families, especially the children, eagerly exploring the fun-filled activities scattered across the venue. Carnival booth games were an instant hit, with many children winning multiple small gifts, and some walked away with as many as four prizes!

Laughter filled the air as participants took on challenges like Giant Jenga, Snakes & Ladders, and creative crafting stations.

The sand art station was a huge draw for the children, offering a wide selection of cartoon characters for them to turn into colourful masterpieces. The kids had a fantastic time filling in the stickered illustrations with vibrant sands.

Meanwhile, 2 caricaturist entertained a long queue of families, all eagerly waiting for their cartoon portraits to be drawn. Those with patience were rewarded with hand-drawn marker portraits of themselves to take home as a cherished souvenir from the Family Day event.

Adding to the fun, a playful clown strolled around the event, delighting the children with twisted balloon creations.

5:30 - 6:00 pm

The fun didn’t stop there. the first telematch game got everyone, both young and old, on their feet. The first game, Battle of the Big Kids, was a classic game of musical chairs. Participants had to scramble for a chair when the music stopped. This fun moment generated much laughter as the players vied for a seat to avoid elimination.

The first round of lucky draws added an exciting twist to the day. Participants eagerly awaited the announcement of winners, with prizes ranging from electrical appliances to cash vouchers.

6:15 - 7:00 pm

The second telematch, Little Legends Games, resumed after the lucky draw session. This thrilling game tested coordination and focus, with participants hitting ping pong balls with badminton racquets to their partners, who had to catch them in a basket.

Mini prizes like bubble blowers were awarded to the winners, and the smiles on everyone’s faces showed just how much fun they were having.

As the games continued, the tantalising aroma from the food trucks beckoned to the foodies. Guests lined up to enjoy a delicious spread of BBQ chicken wings, spaghetti, burritos with nachos, popcorn, and even Nasi Padang! There were also refreshing beverages such as coconut shakes, watermelon juice, and hazelnut coffee to quench their thirst.

Adding to the feast, our client generously brought along extra finger foods to share, including burgers, nuggets, French fries, and colourful cupcakes, which was a hit with both kids and adults alike.

7:30 - 8:00 pm

As evening fell, a second round of lucky draws took place. More participants walked away with fabulous household appliances like a microwave, vacuum cleaner, Samsung Galaxy Tab, and garment steamer. The excitement was infectious, and everyone was buzzing with anticipation.

Towards the late evening the children took a full advantage of the free rides around the venue. From the merry-go-round to kids’ bungee to the human, there was no shortage of activities to keep the little ones entertained until the very end.

The day wrapped up with colourful light and fountain show. This Family Day at Quayside Mall was a wonderful blend of food, fun, and unforgettable moments. The Traworld team was thrilled to see so many happy faces and grateful for the opportunity to create such a joyful experience for our client and their families. We can’t wait to host the next one!
