Regarding about kpopfiesta, I feel they are quite fishy so I never signed up with them. They have a event at Jurong point and the rent is like $200 for 3 days near the main stage.. They asked me to transfer the money to them 1st but I refused. I want to issue them a cheque and asked for their company name but the girl that I liaise dont know the company name?? But she worked for the company leh.. I also never bother to check whether the event is it really on or what???

I want to thanks the originator of the thread for alerting us on this. I have paid money for the booths at Jurong point (kpopfiesta) and all these threads are worrying me, I checked with the organizer and he responded immediately everytime I inquire about something. I have not worked with him before, however, I can feel that he is working hard on this and because of all these complaints, it's affecting their reputation. I want to clarify that the organizer is doing his best to coordinate the activities at JP and want to get this going. However, all these doubts are deterring the team efforts.

Hi everyone,
I am just trying my luck as I am being recommended to this site by a friend. I paid for an event about 1 year ago and the event was a fair to be conducted at the One Fullerton near to the Merlion. The event was called Marina Bay Market and the organiser company name is called Pure Events. Together with 20 vendors, each of us paid $1,750 to the organiser. The event was postponed a few times until we realise that she has ran away and we could not locate the organiser. The person in charge was called Tina.
I know this is very difficult but I want to try my luck to see if anyone here would know the organiser or the person called Tina or also had the same experience I had to go through. Thanks so much in advance.

Hi, i have also contact kpopfiesta on the vivocity and finally got a reply after a few emails. As i have paid the rental, i got worried after reading all these threads. According to them, they will give a confirmation whether the event is confirmed or cancelled by early next week...hope they will get back as promised.

Shjuan seems to be the only one who's enjoy a pleasant experience working with the organiser, which everyone else in here hasn't.

Care to share more information about the organiser? Maybe that might help some of us understand why they removed their post within a day or delay in their responses to queries, yet very eager to get interested vendors to make payment ASAP.

I don't mean to pour hot water hear but how could the management of Jurong Point not aware that there is an event going on next weekend. It really smells not right here.

Hi, I've received the below message from this kpopfiesta by SMS :

Hi, we have did our best. But in the end, we have to cancelled the event on 24&25 Nov 2012 Jurong Point bazaar. They received too much complain from some external vendors. I will contact your again after this week to get from you the refund details. Sorry for all the inconvenience caused. We will make a full refund to you.

Thanks,
