Festivals

The month-long summertime Singapore Food Festival is really a chance for the country to show off its varied, multicultural and downright delicious cuisine. Comprised of a series of cooking workshops, weekly tasting sessions, competitions, films and exhibitions, this festival is a food lover’s paradise.

This two-day event welcomes teams from across the world to compete in the ancient sport of Dragon Boat Racing. Families, sports fans and anyone craving a good dose of adrenalin flock to Bedok Reservoir to soak up the competitive atmosphere, which is fueled by roaring crowds and the relentless sound of beating drums.

For a whole month, Singaporean theaters become packed, playing host to the country's national arts festival. Expect a mix of local and international acts; some world renowned and some that are just starting out. On the line-up you'll find visual arts, dance, theater and music - all promoting the island’s rich and diverse culture.
