Shanghai Offers Nighttime Marriage Registration at Nightclub

Shanghai's couples can now say "I do" — in what feels more like a nightclub than a government office.

The Huangpu District Civil Affairs Bureau is partnering with INS Land, a trendy entertainment complex, to launch a nighttime marriage certificate experience.

From November 14 to 22, every Friday and Saturday night (November 14, 15, 21, and 22), newlyweds will be able to receive their marriage certificates at INS Land in a romantic, neon-lit setting.

The ceremony will include custom performances and a co-branded marriage certificate issued by the Huangpu District Civil Affairs Bureau and INS Land. A celebration area will give couples and their guests space to share the moment.

Participants will also have a chance to receive exclusive tickets to Tomorrowland's indoor music show.

Reservations have opened on November 3 via the official "Huangpu Civil Affairs" WeChat account and INS Land platforms. With limited spots available, couples are encouraged to book early. Marriage registration officers will be stationed on-site during the events to ensure a smooth and memorable experience.
