Can you invoice our company and work with a purchase order?
Yes. We send an itemised written quotation and an invoice in your company's name, and can quote against your purchase order. Our catering, crew and coordination are one nett price, with no GST or service charge added by us. Your written quote sets out the payment schedule.
How many guests can we have at Foochow Building?
Up to 400 at 10-seat tables on one floor, depending on the layout. Theatre-style, Level 2 seats 450 and Level 3 seats 350. The live price goes up to 400 guests; for a theatre-style event above that, classroom seating or both floors, WhatsApp us and we plan the room with the hall and price it with you. Buffets, tea breaks and canapés start at 30 guests, but the hall is priced per session whatever your numbers, so it suits about 80 guests or more.
What AV comes with the hall?
The hall's 2.4 × 5 m LED wall, its sound system and lighting come with the hire, along with air-conditioning and a dressing room. Tell us how many microphones you need and what you will show on the LED wall, and we check it with the hall. Extra stage lighting, a lectern, an emcee or a show caller can be added by our production team on your written quote.
How long do we get the hall?
One six-hour session: 9am to 3pm or 5pm to 11pm, plus set-up time before your session. Running late? Extra time is charged by the hall and confirmed a month ahead, or book both sessions for a full day.
Is the food halal?
Yes. Every menu comes from our own halal-certified kitchen, with a vegetarian choice in every course, so the whole company eats from one buffet. Tell us about allergies and we mark them on the menu.
Can we use candles or a cold-spark effect?
Not with a real flame. The building allows no open flame anywhere, so table candles are LED and pyrotechnics are out. For a cold-spark moment at your launch or awards, ask us first and we check it with the hall.
How do our guests get there?
The hall is at 21 Tyrwhitt Road, at the corner of Plumer Road, in the Farrer Park and Jalan Besar area. Farrer Park, Lavender, Jalan Besar and Bendemeer MRT stations are all within about 750 m, and buses 21, 23, 64, 65, 66, 67, 125, 130, 139, 141, 147 and 857 serve the area. The hall does not publish parking details for events, so tell us how many cars to expect and we check what's available for your date.
Are you part of Foochow Building?
No. Prime Events × Alangkaar is an independent event planner, caterer and décor team. We arrange the hall booking with you at the hall's own rates and run the event from set-up to clear-out.
Is the price final?
It is built from the hall's current rates and our own menu, crew and coordination prices, all nett. The hall has not published separate rates for 2027, so for 2027 dates we confirm its rate before you commit. Extra set-up time, extra AV and a second meal on a full day go on your written quote, which confirms the total once the hall confirms your date and session.
Can you send a formal quotation for our procurement?
Yes. Send the estimate from this page and a planner replies with an itemised written quotation, line by line, that you can file for approval.
What are the menu options?
Prime Essential is included in every package, from 30 guests, with Prime Signature and Prime Premium priced per guest on top; tea break & canapés as a lighter package; and conference tea breaks as add-ons, priced per guest on the venue page.
Can you do the stage and branding?
Yes, as an option: an LED wall (priced to size), or a goalpost truss with a printed banner backdrop wall. AV, staging and event extras are quoted with your planner.
Is there GST or a service charge?
No service charge, and the price you see is nett. Venue hire is passed through at the venue's own rate, with no mark-up from us.
Who are Prime Events × Alangkaar?
Prime Events is the corporate events arm of the Alangkaar group, with Alangkaar's planners, halal-certified kitchen and décor team, planning events in Singapore since 1997.
