W PRESENTS Chengdu & Macau 2025

TL;DR: Quick Summary

W PRESENTS – W Hotels’ global music series – returned to Greater China with two electrifying shows curated by the client and featuring HAYLA. Riviera Events supported both stops with full AV solutions, technical production, and onsite event execution, helping to create an unforgettable music-led experience in line with W’s bold and energetic brand identity. 

Introduction

W PRESENTS is a global music experience by W Hotels that brings emerging and established artists to iconic W properties worldwide. After touring major cities around the world, the series returned to Greater China in 2025 for two standout performances: one at SPARK in W Chengdu, and another at the Living Room at W Macau – Studio City.  

Riviera Events served as the local production partner, supporting the W team with AV solutions, staging, lighting, and on-site event execution for both performances. 

The Challenge: Translating Global Music Culture into Local Energy

W PRESENTS needed to: 

• Deliver high-production-value events that aligned with W’s global music DNA. 
  
• Bring together music lovers, VIPs, and tastemakers in two distinctly different cities. 
• Highlight internationally recognised talent in an immersive setting. 
• Execute both events with seamless production flow and strong brand alignment. 

Riviera Events’ Role: Event Production Across Two Cities

Event Production & Technical Support 

• Delivered full on-site production services including sound, lighting, staging, and visuals. 
• Adapted global brand standards to suit each venue’s unique layout and audience. 

On-site Event Execution 

• Managed on-ground operations, crew, and logistics from setup to breakdown. 
• Crew and event flow management to ensure seamless performance delivery.

The Result: A Triumphant Return for W PRESENTS 

• Over 400 attendees across both cities.
• Positive guest feedback on event energy, atmosphere, and performance quality. 
• Showcased W Hotels as a music-led lifestyle brand in China.
• Contributed to strong social media traction and local buzz.

Riviera Insight: What Made This Corporate Event Stand Out?

• Global Music Identity, Local Impact: W’s bold aesthetic and soundscape translated effortlessly across two culturally distinct cities. 
• Elevated Production: Riviera’s technical team adapted brand standards to two unique venue environments, ensuring flawless execution.
