As the sun dips below the Phnom Penh skyline this May, a new event is set to make waves along the Mekong – Smoke on the Water. This twilight charity cruise, followed by an open-air afterparty, promises a night of indulgence, community, and meaningful support for a great cause.

Hosted by Cigar Comprandes Cambodia, Smoke on the Water blends the art of fine cigars, premium whisky, and live music into a unique riverside experience, all while raising funds to support the children of Sunrise Cambodia.

An Evening on the Mekong

The night begins aboard the Mekong Magic Cruise, a spacious, two-deck vessel that offers sweeping views of Phnom Penh’s twinkling skyline as it glides along the Tonle Sap and Mekong rivers. Guests will be welcomed with a glass of Nikka Whisky, courtesy of Moonshine, as they step aboard at Koh Pich. For the first 75 guests, the evening includes a complimentary Confidenciaal cigar by Bertie’s, setting the tone for an evening of refined indulgence.

As the cruise gently makes its way down the river, live music will provide the perfect backdrop to the city’s glittering lights, creating a relaxed but festive atmosphere. Alongside the music, guests can savor a selection of tapas from Compass Mexican and Mekong Fine Foods, ensuring that the night’s pleasures extend beyond just the smoke and spirits.

From the Water to the Dance Floor

After the cruise, the night continues at Chew & Bash, one of Phnom Penh’s newest riverside hangouts, located at the lively Coconut Park. Known for its laid-back vibe and vibrant social scene, Chew & Bash offers the perfect setting for the event’s afterparty. Guests can enjoy Mediterranean bites from Hummus House, more top-shelf pours from Botanico, and a high-energy set from DJ Dr. WahWah, known for his eclectic mixes that keep the dance floor moving long into the night.

A Night for a Cause

While the focus is on indulgence and connection, the heart of Smoke on the Water lies in its charitable mission. All proceeds from the event will go towards purchasing a piano for the children of Sunrise Cambodia, adding a powerful, lasting note of generosity to the evening.

A community-led charity event with a creative twist is set to take place on Saturday, May 3rd at The Tin Hat in Toul Tom Poung, all in support of the Sorn Foundation, a Cambodian non-profit working to empower women and uplift vulnerable families.

The event is more than just a donation drive, it’s a chance for Phnom Penh residents to give back, connect, and make a real impact. With the Sorn Foundation at the heart of the initiative, all funds raised will go directly to supporting their work in Cambodia.

Give, Grab a Beer, and Win

From now until May 3rd, locals are encouraged to drop off gently-used or spare clothes, books, gadgets, and household goods at The Tin Hat. On the big day, the best donations will be featured in a pop-up charity sale from 2:30–5:30PM, with 100% of proceeds going to the Sorn Foundation. To sweeten the deal, anyone who donates a bag on the day receives a free beer (while stocks last), and the donor of the highest-selling item wins a special prize and a shoutout.

The evening continues with a lively $2 charity quiz with a mix of rounds covering geography, lyrics, Cambodian trivia, and even a comedy storytelling round.

Tom Starkey, Strategic Partnerships Advisor for the Sorn Foundation, said, “The Sorn Foundation is doing vital grassroots work supporting women and children in rural Cambodia, and this event is about getting the wider Phnom Penh community involved. Whether you’re donating a bag, coming for the quiz, or just spreading the word, it all helps.” 

Tom, who is also the founder of Cambodia Lifestyle, added that his company will be helping to promote the event on their platform and sponsoring a prize on the night. 

The Sorn Foundation: Changing Lives Through Education

Founded by Nicola Clements from the UK and Somphors Sorn from Cambodia, the Sorn Foundation is a grassroots charity dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty and social exclusion in rural Cambodia. Based in Takeo Province, the foundation provides free education to children, offering English and Khmer lessons, life skills, and a safe space to grow. Their mission is to empower individuals with the tools they need to build a better future through education and community development programs.

What began as Somphors teaching local children under a tree has evolved into a fully registered school, built from the ground up with the help of dedicated supporters. The foundation has taught over 70 children, provided school supplies, food, and internet access, and supported local students in pursuing higher education.

In addition to education, the Sorn Foundation focuses on reducing violence against women through grassroots education and training initiatives. Programs include women’s rights awareness, parenting support, and sustainable living projects such as vegetable growing and livestock rearing. 

A Venue With Character: The Tin Hat

Located in the popular Toul Tom Poung area, The Tin Hat is known for its laid-back charm and community spirit. It’s not just a bar, it’s also home to an in-house barber salon, and hosts everything from live music nights, weekend BBQS and curated events that support good causes.

Electronic music legend Paul Oakenfold, known for his performances at iconic global landmarks like the Great Wall of China, Stonehenge, and Mount Everest Base Camp, is making his Cambodian debut in April 2025. This historic event marks a significant moment for Cambodia’s music scene, with Oakenfold’s electrifying sound echoing through two of the country’s top venues. As he headlines his first-ever shows in Cambodia, the question arises: Could Angkor Wat be next on the global DJ’s performance map?

Phnom Penh: The Ultimate Kickoff at Chew & Bash

On Saturday, April 26th, Oakenfold will begin his journey in Cambodia at Chew & Bash, Phnom Penh’s premier nightlife destination. Known for its high-energy atmosphere and international talent, Chew & Bash promises to set the stage for an unforgettable night of music.

The Rise of Cambodia’s Dance Music Scene

These two groundbreaking events, presented by CODE RED Agency, represent a major milestone for Cambodia’s electronic music landscape. As international artists like Oakenfold bring their world-class performances to Cambodia, the country’s vibrant culture is being placed firmly on the global music map. And with the possibility of performances at even more iconic Cambodian sites in the future, such as the majestic Angkor Wat, Cambodia’s potential as a top-tier music destination is becoming increasingly clear.

As Cambodia continues to attract global talent, the country’s unique blend of ancient wonders and contemporary energy offers a captivating backdrop for future musical milestones.
