During winter, it's mighty tempting to rid your after-work agenda of anything that involves leaving your blanket fort. But this season, we're on a mission to make sure you make the most of the bonus nighttime hours, so we've teamed up with Samsung Galaxy S9 to bring you the After Dark Guide — a series dedicated to the best things to eat, see and do in Melbourne when the sun goes down.
To celebrate this partnership, we hosted the ultimate winter party and invited a bunch of you along to join in on the after-dark fun. The nighttime shindig at Ferdydurke featured an epic spread from Plentiful Catering and signature concoctions by the Ferdydurke team. Throughout the night, resident DJs provided the tunes that made the dancefloor too irresistible to ignore.
The dim, poster-lined Ferdydurke, with its pink-tinted lights, put the Samsung Galaxy S9's Super Low Light Camera to the test. Cole Bennetts (photographer for the Samsung x Concrete Playground campaign) was on-deck to share his knowledge on all things photography, helping our party-goers capture these epic moments for the chance to win their own Samsung Galaxy S9 and a restaurant voucher. All the evening antics were photographed by Sarah Chav on a Samsung Galaxy S9, as seen in this gallery.
