Venue is Function Room 1 at Compass Heights condo, which is the same building that contains Compass Point shopping centre, Sengkang bus terminal and Sengkang LRT & MRT station. Those driving should park at the shopping centre. The entrance to the function room is at the perimeter of the building, along Sengkang East Way.

If you can't find the correct entrance which leads to the function room, do ask the numerous security guards for directions.
