NordCham Philippines in partnership with Sofitel Philippine Plaza Manila transports guests to a feast for the senses set in a Viking Village for the themed celebration of the Crayfish Party 2018. The Harbor Garden Tent will be transformed into a coastal Viking Village for the most authentic and exciting Crayfish party in the country.

Save the date for the 8th of September 2018 from 6pm onwards and get ready to indulge in a festive party filled with a sumptuous selection of traditional Nordic dishes, a wide array of alcoholic beverages from San Miguel, Martin Miller, Engkanto, and Absolut – and of course, bountiful servings of Crayfish.

Sing and dance the night away as The Bloomfields performs the greatest musical hits of all time for an unforgettable evening at Sofitel.

3 kinds of herrings: pickled herring with peppers, pickled herring with crispy garlic and capers, herring with honey dill mustard Herrings are the backbone of Scandinavian fish cookery. Herrings are beautiful, small, silvery fish, with dark soft meat, with a special oily flavor

A fun evening of festivities, the Crayfish Party now on its 6th year, also presents as meaningful gathering as the event’s proceeds are donated to the Chosen Children Village (CCV) – a foundation dedicated towards providing a home environment and a care facility for physically and mentally challenged children.

To celebrate true Nordic culture, guests are invited to come in their own Viking ensemble or don their favorite Nordic football jersey to fully enjoy singing, dancing, and playing games in true Nordic fashion.
