A highlight of the evening was the anniversary cake-cutting ceremony marking Ospree Duty Free’s two-year milestone, followed by a high-energy DJ-led celebration.

Ospree’s anniversary celebration also featured a spectacular drone show that illuminated the night sky, tracing the brand’s inspiring journey and celebrating the people who have contributed to its success. The showcase served as a heartfelt tribute to Ospree’s teams, partners, and collaborators, with special acknowledgement of partner brands that have stood by the brand as strong pillars and played a defining role in shaping Ospree’s story.

The evening further featured a celebratory champagne tower toast, symbolising Ospree Duty Free’s journey and achievements over the past two years.
