Inside Asian Gaming is pleased to announce that the next edition of networking social Manila After Dark (MAD 33) will be held at BRB (formerly known as Baccarat Room & Bar) at Solaire Resort Entertainment City on the evening of Friday 12 December 2025.
This will be the third Manila After Dark event of 2025 and the sixth and final MAD event of the year.
Inspired by the covert elegance of 1920s speakeasies, the vintage-style BRB features rich, period-style design paired with a curated selection of premium whiskies, craft cocktails and non-alcoholic options for refined tastes.
With a built-in humidor showcasing local and imported cigars, and a semi-private area that accommodates up to 42 guests, the venue is perfect for intimate gatherings, private events and sophisticated celebrations – all delivered with Solaire’s signature hospitality.
BRB is featured in Tatler Asia’s Most Recommended Bars 2025 and honored in the Tatler Dining Awards for The Best Bars 2020, a testament to its timeless charm and exceptional offerings.
“We are proud to partner with IAG to host Manila After Dark at Solaire Resort, bringing together peers from the integrated resorts and broader gaming industry to celebrate this year’s festive season,” said Gregory Hawkins, President and Chief Operating Officer of Bloomberry Resorts Corporation.
“This gathering is a meaningful opportunity to turn challenges into possibilities, strengthen relationships and foster collaboration and growth.”
IAG VICE Chairman and CEO Andrew W Scott added, “Inside Asian Gaming is thrilled to be hosting MAD at Solaire Resort Entertainment City for the very first time – and what better place than the luxurious BRB to celebrate the festive season.
“A huge thank you goes to Solaire COO Greg Hawkins and the Solaire team for their generous support of what has become a hugely popular event on the Manila industry networking scene.
“This will be IAG’s very last event of 2025 so be sure to come along and celebrate with the IAG team as we farewell the year that was and prepare to welcome 2026!”
Debuting back in early 2019, MAD is a regular series of industry networking social events held in the Asian gaming hubs of Macau and Manila. Each MAD brings together key industry decision-makers with the people they want to meet in a relaxed and friendly environment. The event rotates around the region’s best hospitality venues – some well-known and some hidden gems.
Due to its enormous popularity, MAD is strictly by invitation only. Invited guests must RSVP and be confirmed by having an event entry ticket on their phones. All guests must supply their business cards upon arrival. There is also a select VIP list for each event.
