When the sun takes her bow and the stars come out to play, Southeast Asia’s Garden City truly comes alive, and it’s safe to say it even shines! With most buildings and landmarks lit up in the evening, the things to do in Singapore at night really show off this side of the city.

　　Tours and sightseeing adventures revolve around the city lights, and not only does the thriving modern metropolis take on a new perspective, but so do your own eyes. There are mesmerizing light shows, fireworks displays, and artistic structures transforming into new shades (like the Gardens by the Bay’s SuperTrees and the Henderson Waves).

　　Reach for the stars on SG’s version of a human catapult, or scope out the constellations from its stargazing observatory. Choose from Michelin-starred restaurants for dinner, UNESCO-award-winning street food, five-course dinners along the Singapore River—or even dinner in the sky!

　　Explore, shop and eat your way through lively neighborhoods like Chinatown, Little India and Kampong, filled with traditional shopping, cool bars and splashes of street art. There are funky beach clubs, incredible rooftop bars, markets that stay open 24/7, and even out-of-the-ordinary experiences like ghost tours!

　　1 Drink champagne in the sky on the Singapore Flyer

　　What better way to oversee Lion City when it’s completely lit up by city lights than aboard the iconic Singapore Flyer with a glass of bubbly in hand?

　　One of the tallest observation wheels in the world, soar 165 meters above the ground at its highest point, and to elevate things even further, there are a few out-of-this-world dining experiences.

　　Designed with romantics in mind, the 165 Sky Dining by Singapore Flyer is a four-course dinner set up within a private VIP capsule.

　　Instead of a regular 30-minute spin on the wheel, you’ll complete the cycle three times, totaling 90 minutes. Drink in the views over Singapore, and with vistas up to 45 kilometers into the horizon, you can even spot Malaysia!

　　2  Pose for a picture with the lion mermaid at Merlion Park

　　Ever heard Singapore referred to as “Lion City?” Did you know that the metropolis’ national emblem happens to be a “merlion” encompassing the body of a fish and a lion’s head? It represents Singapore’s ties to the ocean and the land.

　　This mythical creature can be seen in all its glory at Merlion Park — although you will spot multiple Merlion statues all around Singapore if you look well enough.

　　Perched on the waterfront’s edge in the CBD, the 8.6-meter-tall statue spurts water from its mouth, and appears extra mystical at night with building lights bouncing off the river in front. It’s also a prime spot to catch Marina Bay Sands’ daily ‘Spectra – A Light Water Show’ and, therefore, among the best tourist attractions in Singapore.

　　Take an evening walk around the Marina Bay waterfront promenade afterward, and there are plenty of bars and restaurants around here, too.

　　3 For the best views in the house head to Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck

　　Singapore is one of those destinations that continues to impress visitors with its insane landmarks and the Marina Bay Sands SkyPark Observation Deck is unmissable — literally and figuratively speaking!

　　Soaring above buildings, monuments, the ocean and the city streets, this special viewing platform is built 56 stories above ground zero!

　　Arrive in time for Golden Hour (the best place for it in the Garden City), and there are a few special experiences offered. For example, when booking the Sunset in the Sky option, enjoy a glass of champagne and gourmet handcrafted chocolates.

　　Or, stay in time for the city’s Spectra light show, then wine and dine afterward at one of the rooftop bars or restaurants at Marina Bay Sands.

　　P.S. Events are sometimes held here, like silent discos!

　　4 See famous landmarks lit up during a night bus tour

　　If your days are already jam-packed with activities, savor a sightseeing expedition for the evening, joining a night bus tour!

　　Boarding an open-top double-decker, arrive early to secure your place on the top level, and it’s pretty cool cruising around Singapore above the crowds.

　　Not only driving from one site to the next, you’ll pit stop at certain points of interest, like Lau Pa Sat, disembarking to explore a bit on foot, or, in this instance, sample the yummiest street food delights!

　　Points of interest include Marina Bay, Orchard Road, Marina Barrage and the Singapore Flyer.

　　Typically three hours, the tour kicks off around sunset with a live guide accompanying you the entire route, and ends just after Singapore’s iconic night light show.

　　5 Admire the light show spectacle at Gardens by the Bay

　　From its indoor waterfall displays to whimsical floral utopias to dreamlike outdoor walkways, Gardens by the Bay is simply unmissable (and should be at the top of your lists of things to do in Singapore at night).

　　Globally recognizable for its pathway of purple Supertrees, this outdoor space transforms come nightfall as the Garden Rhapsody music and light show begins. With compositions by renowned local composer Bang Wenfu, you can expect a different theme each month of the year.

　　Admire the spectacle along the Supertree Observatory’s 22-meter-long OCBC Skywalk, and many of the other gardens outside stay open 24/7. Most of the indoor attractions (Cloud Forest, the Flower Dome and the Floral Fantasy gardens) close at 9 PM.

　　FYI. The show runs twice a night: at 7.45 PM and 8.45 PM, and is completely free.

　　6 Explore the afterlife at Haw Par Villa

　　One thing we l.o.v.e. about Southeast Asia’s modern cities is that they retain plenty of history and cultural blessings are still highly appreciated. For a fascinating glimpse of both, head to the otherworldly Haw Par Villa and enter the “10 Courts of Hell.”

　　Established by the founding family of the herbal ointment Tiger Balm, the unique outdoor attraction features more than 1,000 sculptures and dioramas depicting Chinese history, folklore, legends and literature.

　　As one of the best theme parks in Singapore, the main feature here is the Hell’s Museum, where you can learn more about the Chinese and Buddhist afterlife. Opening hours are until 8 PM. Join a guided tour, or there are some fun workshops available, too.

　　Spend the night at the famous villa at Haw Paw’s quirky Shipping Container Hotel!

　　7 Hang out with elephants, owls and lions with a Night Safari

　　Unlike us humans who require eight hours of beauty sleep once the sun has disappeared, there are many animals that are nocturnal creatures.

　　During a Night Safari, lap up the opportunity to meet some of these animals, taking cue from the plains of Africa.

　　Cruise around the park in a closed buggy and admire the animals free roaming around the grounds. There are various trails, such as the Leopard Trail and the Tasmanian Devil Trail.

　　There are other wildlife experiences, from keeper talks to special educational presentations and even a night photography tour for any wildlife photographers out there.

　　Make it a night to remember with the park’s unique dining experience, set up in a teepee and followed by a gourmet feast!

　　8  Watch a movie under the stars with Films At The Fort

　　There’s something so nostalgic about the idea of watching a movie in an open-air cinema — perhaps it’s the reminder of drive-in days from childhood … Films At The Fort is the perfect date night spot, but even if you’re not here with your beloved, picnicking and movies under starlight is a delight!

　　Hosted annually during the summertime (usually for a couple of weeks in August), pack your basket, lounge about comfortably on blankets on the Fort Canning Green and enjoy delicious cocktails.

　　Movies range from blockbuster hits to independent films, and the huge outdoor screen is backgrounded by dazzling skyscrapers.

　　Afterwards, DJs open up the decks, and the vibey atmosphere continues into the night! How fun?!

　　9 Listen to songs by your favorite artists during a candlelight concert

　　Planning a special date night and searching for romantic things to do in Singapore for couples? With goosebump-inducing compilations and a venue to match, a candlelight concert is a one-of-a-kind experience.

　　Differing from a regular show, a specially chosen space is lit up by the warm glow of hundreds of candles, and the musical part is led by a string quartet or a genius on the piano.

　　Swifties, belt out your favorite T-Swift tracks, like “Love Story” and “Shake it Off” during a Taylor Swift tribute concert at CHIJMES Hall, or at the same venue are tribute concerts to Coldplay, Queen or one dedicated to Magical Movie Soundtracks.

　　At The Arts House, enjoy the music of Joe Hisaishi (also showcasing at the Victoria Theatre), Hans Zimmer, Vivaldis Four Seasons or the music of Bach and The Beatles.

　　10 Spot over 3,000 orchids within the Singapore Botanic Gardens

　　There’s a reason why the Singapore Botanic Gardens was enlisted as the country’s first UNESCO Heritage Site.

　　First established in 1859, there are plenty pathways to meander, gardens to explore, sculptural artworks to admire and museums to investigate, and the gardens stay open until midnight.

　　The National Orchid Garden, Ginger Garden, Keppel Discovery Wetlands, Healing Garden and Ethnobotany Garden are just some examples of the different gardens to discover.

　　Also here is the Botany Centre, the Botanical Art Gallery, COMO Adventure Grove and the Forest Discovery Centre @ OCBC Arboretum.

　　Enter the beautiful greenscape from one of five entrances (Tanglin, Tyersall, Gallop, Nassim and Bukit Timah).

　　11 For all the nostalgia, go skating at HiRoller

　　Calling all flower power kids; travel back a few decades to when bell bottoms and ABBA were all the rage at HiRoller — Singapore’s biggest indoor roller skating rink!

　　Designed to replicate the classic discotheque roller skating rinks made popular during the 1970s and 80s, we say dress the part and show off your skills!

　　There are different themes for various nights of the week, including sing-a-long sessions, but music constantly booms from the speakers if you want to boogie on down on the rink.

　　If you take your skating seriously, HiRoller has its very own Skate Academy, learning techniques like Inline freestyle, floorball and speed.

　　Useful to know: The rink is open until 6 PM on weekdays, on Fridays until 7.30 PM and Saturday to Sunday until 10 PM.

　　12 Follow the city lights during a night cycling tour

　　Why not save a night cycling tour for the evening when it’s slightly cooler?

　　Kicking off at 7 PM, spend the next two hours navigating the streets of Singapore on bike, appreciating the landmarks and monuments from a different perspective when they’re all lit up in the evenings.

　　Plus, many attractions truly shine at this hour, like Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay, the National Gallery Singapore, the ArtScience Museum and Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall, and your tour guide ensures you pedal past these.

　　Other points of interest included in the night cycling route are the Singapore Flyer, Merlion Park, Boat Quay and the Esplanade Theatres on the Bay. In total, you’ll cover a distance of approximately 15 kilometers which is a heck of a lot more than if exploring on foot.

　　13 Battle it out against friends at Hologate

　　Switch things up and enter new realities at Hologate, where humans are replaced by zombies, pirates and even Angry Birds!

　　All that’s required is stepping into the virtual reality arena and a VR headset, and you’re all set. Certain games use hand-held controls, and Hologate employs award-winning technologies across the board.

　　Take your pick from a wide selection of games, like Ragna Rock, Ghostbusters VR Academy, Zombyte, Groove Guardians and Captain Cook.

　　Wondering what are some of the family-friendly things to do in Singapore at night? Games are perfect for a wide range of ages, starting at six years, with game options applicable for youngsters.

　　14 Feel transported in Chinatown

　　Get a taste of Singapore’s multicultural side in vibrant Chinatown, shopping, eating and sightseeing your way through the traditional neighborhood.

　　It has all the quintessential features, like red Chinese lanterns hanging from rooftops, signboards sticking out at every corner in Chinese writing, hoards of crowds, shops selling traditional medicines, herbal goods, spices and delicacies, and some of Lion City’s most important spiritual landmarks.

　　Stop by the five-story Buddha Tooth Relic Temple Museum, see what Dravidian style architecture is all about (typically found in Southern India) at the Sri Mariamman Temple, and then compare the differences at Taoist Thian Hock Keng (dedicated to the Chinese sea goddess, Mazu).

　　Street art appreciators, you’re in for a treat and a bulk of the city’s outdoor murals are splashed around the walls of Chinatown.

　　Naturally, the foods to sample are Chinese-centric, and there are plenty of funky bars and cute cafes around this area, too.

　　15 Shop and eat your way through the lively night markets

　　This city is globally renowned for its street food, so much so it’s garnered UNESCO status! Apart from the food, travelers love shopping in Singapore, and the night markets are a perfect combination of the two!

　　The Bugis Street Market is the most popular, and is the type of locale where you’ll find everything and anything for really affordable prices. Stalls and vendors are split between indoor corridors and spaces outside selling trinkets or a fresh juice.

　　The Katong Square Lifestyle and Vintage Market is a mecca for all flea market-goers, and has been providing the city with second-hand treasures since the 90s!

　　Chinatown Street Market stretches along Pagoda Street, Trengganu Street, Sago Lane, Smith Street, and Temple Street. As you’d expect, it’s a plethora of traditional Chinese goods, medicines and street foods.

　　In Little India, Tekka Center and Little India Arcade are considered part of Singapore’s night markets — but more on those later.

　　Both 409 AMK Market Food Centre and the Bangkit Market are hyper-local, selling mainly food.

　　16 Feel like a Singaporean sailor on a river cruise

　　Have you ever cruised around on a bumboat before? These traditional barge boats are common in places like Singapore and Malaysia, used for decades for transport and expediting supplies and goods.

　　In the 21st century, it’s one of the most authentic ways to experience the Singapore River, and evening river cruises have you boarding a ‘tongkang’ (as the vessel is locally known).

　　Relaxing? Sure, but this is an awesome opportunity to learn more about your surroundings, your tour guide sharing insider knowledge and history behind each attraction you pass by.

　　Speaking of, some of the landmarks you’ll float past include Raffles Landing Site, the Fullerton Hotel, the Singapore Flyer and Marina Bay Sands, as well as the Cavenagh Bridge, the Anderson Bridge and the Clemenceau Bridge.

　　Departing from Clarke Quay, river cruises are available until 9 PM, and are about 40 minutes.

　　17 Dine with the clouds onboard the Singapore Cable Car

　　Why would you travel around Singapore in a four-wheel vehicle when you can veer from one side of the island to the next on the Singapore Cable Car?!

　　Elevated 100 meters above sea level, it’s all about the views!

　　There are two gondola lines: one connecting Mount Faber to Sentosa Island, and the other running across Sentosa.

　　The 30-minute journey from Mount Faber to Sentosa crosses the Harbourfront as well, and the 15-minute ride on Sentosa covers Merlion, Imbiah Lookout and Siloso Point.

　　Take things to new heights with the Cable Car Sky Dining options, with a choice between a four or two-course gourmet dinner in a private gondola. If you’ve already got dinner plans sorted, book the Champagne Cabin and share the journey over a glass of bubbles.

　　18 Go stargazing at the Science Centre

　　Any budding astronomers in the house? Whether you’re five, fifteen or fifty, stargazing at the Science Centre is one sure way to make you realize how small we really are in our vast universe!

　　While the Science Centre closes at 5 PM, its out-of-this-world observatory stays open until 10 PM — this is when the stars really come out to play! With its coordinates intentionally chosen so that it sits next to the Equator, you’re able to see constellations from both the Southern and Northern Hemispheres — crazy!

　　Two programmes are available. The first programme (Stargazing and Digital Planetarium live show) begins in the Omni Theatre and is followed by a stargazing session.

　　‘Programme 2: Stargazer Experience’ involves getting educated on our solar system, learning how to use a telescope and stargazing in the field using the center’s state-of-the-art telescopes.

　　19 Pose for selfies like in the movies in a Photomatic Self Photo Studio

　　An extra cute way to remember your Singaporean holiday is popping into the Photomatic Self Photo Studio.

　　Set up as a self-service photo booth, its the next best thing to a private photoshoot.

　　Sessions are 30 minutes, and you can personalize your photo strips by selecting different background colors or lighting. For example, give your portraits a neon glow or sit pretty in front of a pastel-pink backdrop.

　　If half an hour ain’t enough, add on extra time for a couple dollars more, and there are three Photomatic locations around Singapore.

　　The Orchard Central location opens until 9 PM from Sunday to Friday and Saturdays until 10 PM; the Funan location operates until 9 PM on weekdays and weekends until 10 PM; and the Centrepoint location closes every day at 9 PM.

　　20 Defy the laws of gravity at iFly Singapore

　　Have you already dreamt of skydiving but don’t know if you have the guts to actually step out of a plane and plummet into thin air?

　　Test the waters, or should we say, atmosphere at the Guinness Record-breaking iFly Singapore, where you’ll experience exactly what it feels like to skydive just without the whole jumping out of a plane aspect.

　　Three packages are available for first-timers (The Teaser, The Challenge and the Trial Training Package), and all include flight training before you enter the 17-meter-tall wind tunnel, with all gear provided. The session lasts 90 minutes from start to end.

　　If this isn’t your first rodeo, there are sessions for professional sports flyers, too!

　　P.S. We highly recommend wearing comfortable clothing for this one.

　　21 Test new methods like kayak fishing at night

　　Is fishing one of your favorite pastimes? Well, forget ordinary expeditions on a regular boat, and try something new, like kayak fishing at night.

　　Already fun and exciting with the whole night time aspect, it’s even more so in the pedal-powered Hobie inflatable kayaks.

　　Do you think you have what it takes to reel in an impressive catch even if you’re not fishing off a boat or from the comfort of a shoreline?

　　No worries, though, if you’re a novice, these ventures are suitable for beginners and pros, and you’re shown various techniques before setting off to sea, with all equipment provided. Choose between fishing around the East Coast of Singapore or there are fishing expeditions between Sentosa and the Southern Islands.

　　Do you love fishing but aren’t keen on the whole kayak vibe? Swap the outdoor adventure for Fish@Bugis+ — an indoor rooftop fishing and prawning pond open 24/7!

　　22 For an evening play, visit Esplanade Theatres on the Bay

　　Shaped after Southeast Asia’s iconic stinky fruit, Esplanade Theatres on the Bay is admired by architects for its striking durian design and is visited by those searching for a cultural night out!

　　Endearingly referred to as “the durian” by locals, it’s one of Singapore’s top performance art centers, and the Esplanade houses multiple venues, as well as exhibitions.

　　Catch a ballet show, fall in love with the sounds of music during a dramatic orchestra ensemble, or relax with a classical music production, all of which feature artists and musicians from around the world.

　　But if it’s the design you’re truly here for, we say join the Esplanade Night Tour. You’re taken backstage to the Concert Hall and Theatre, and now is the chance to learn about its history and architecture from the experts!

　　There is a mixture of shops, restaurants and bars here, too, selling musical instruments, jewelry, bubble tea, and more!

　　23 Spiral over Singapore on the SkyHelix Sentosa

　　Is it a rocket ship? A UFO? An observation tower? While technically resembling both, the SkyHelix Sentosa is, in fact, an adrenaline-inducing amusement park ride!

　　Far from the mundane, hop into an open-air gondola on Ground Zero and then whizz 79 meters into the sky, your feet hanging in the air. Okay, you don’t exactly shoot up, but rather, the ascend is a gentle rotation to the top.

　　The seats are designed in a circle, and in the center is a bar, so you can enjoy a drink above the city of Singapore once you reach the top!

　　Plus, the panoramic views from this vantage point in the evening are unparalleled (literally), and it’s one of the fun things to do in Sentosa. It also gets a purple glow when the sun goes down and appears super-trippy if looking at it in the distance. Last admission is at 9 PM!

　　24 Win incredible prizes at the arcades

　　Rage against the machine or battle it out against friends at Singapore’s epic arcades (with plenty staying open till the early hours of the morning).

　　Cow Play Cow Moo (open until 1 AM) has 60 arcade machines and 280 game stations for you to play your way through, with epic prizes, like disposable cameras and even some Disney, Sanrio and Marvel branded selections.

　　Doubling as an arcade-meets-live music bar, Level Up even has retro arcade drinking games! It also closes at 1 AM.

　　Annoyingly addictive until you finally catch one, Play United is Singapore’s biggest hand-claw machine arcade, with over 1,000 different claw machines, plenty of themes and cool goodies to try and snag!

　　From beating drums to showing off your guitar playing skills, Virtualand Singapore sets itself apart from the rest as a rhythm games arcade!

　　Timezone has multiple outlets around Singapore, with everything from the classics to table hockey to VR rides!

　　Kids especially love Paco Funworld and Zone X for the prizes (think Hello Kitty plushies or Nintendo Switch!). Both arcades have a few branches around the city.

　　25 See butterfly and terrace gardens along the Southern Ridges

　　Southeast Asia’s Greenest City brims with beautiful gardens, genius landscapes and evergreen nooks, crannies and walls. The 10-kilometer-long Southern Ridges is the ultimate introduction to some of these, linking multiple parks and outdoor spaces around Singapore.

　　Designed as an elevated boardwalk through a canopy of trees, you can enter and exit the ridges from any of these, but if you’re not sure where the Marang Trail entrance is a good place to start. (From the Harbourfront MRT Station, take the exit leading to the Marang Trail.)

　　Telok Blangah Hill Park, Kent Ridge Park, Hort Park, Labrador Nature Reserve and Mount Faber Park are the parks connected to the Southern Ridges.

　　Running between Kent Ridge Park and Hort Park is the 280-meter-long Canopy Walk, where you can spot tropical flora and fauna, and then there’s also the 1.6-kilometer-long Forest Walk along a metal walkway.

　　26 Swim 57 meters above the ground at the Infinity Pool at Marina Bay Sands

　　“What’s that structure in the sky???” Ladies and gents, that would be the inspiring and ultra-modern Infinity Pool at Marina Bay Sands!

　　An icon of Lion City, the 150-meter-long swimming pool stretches across three hotel towers, and as you can imagine, the views from here are amazing (not to mention one of the most unique photo spots).

　　As part of the visionary Marina Bay Sands, the infinity pool is reserved for hotel guests staying at Marina Bay Sands Hotel. Grab drinks and a light bite from LAVO Italian Restaurant Rooftop Bar or CÉ LA VI.

　　Searching for the best staycation hotels in Singapore (perhaps you’re planning on proposing)? It doesn’t get better than this 5-star option!

　　27 “Travel” to a new country at Little India

　　If you’ve got an infinity for India (guilty), there’s a colorful neighborhood replicating the spiritual country, known as Little India, where a world of shopping, eating and activities awaits.

　　Set up in a 1913 heritage building, Little India Arcade is where we recommend starting your shopping trail. Shophouses sell trinkets, jewels, handicrafts, clothing, hair and beauty products, sweetmeats, ayurvedic goods and more — all imported from India.

　　Tekka Centre is another market haven, comprising a wet market, food center and shopping level.

　　Follow the Little India Art Trail; break in front of the rainbow House of Tan Teng Niah and pose for pictures; get an ayurvedic massage or join a yoga class; and the 24/7 Mustafa Centre has six levels of food and goods to browse through.

　　Bars and restaurants tenfold, the Whiskey Library Jazz Club is one of our favorite evening joints. For flavors of South and North India, Komala Vilas brings the heat.

　　Cultural and spiritual landmarks to tick off? These include the Masjid Abdul Gafoor, Sri Veeramakaliamman Temple, Sakya Muni Buddha Gaya Temple and Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple.

　　28 Make it out alive at the Universal Studios Singapore Halloween Horror Nights

　　How do you rate your spooky threshold? The annual Universal Studios Singapore Halloween Horror Nights will have you holding your breath, with frightening antics taken to the next level!

　　If you dare … step inside the five immersive haunted houses, where creepy creatures lurk around the corners, and nightmares become reality! Each house is themed based on popular pop culture, legends and Netflix hits.

　　In 2023, ‘The Weeknd’s Nightclub’ (from The Idol), ‘Netflix’s All Of Us Are Dead,’ ‘Grimm Encounters,’ ‘Rebirth of the Matriarch’ and ‘DIYU: Descent into Hell’ were the five eerie haunted house themes.

　　Not just haunted houses, there are three “scare zones” (Dead Man’s Wharf, The Hacker and The Cursed Kiramam) and two live shows to catch.

　　29 If you’re lucky enough, you might spot a specter during a ghost tour

　　Do you believe in the supernatural? Originally home to pirates and sea gypsies, Lion City has a fascinating past. If you’re convinced the dead still walk among us, join a hair-raising ghost tour!

　　And because ghosts only come out to play at night, it’s a perfect evening activity.

　　Ask any local and they will tell you that parts of Singapore are indeed haunted (we even have a few friends who have had supernatural encounters in the city), but the area around the Old Changi district is believed to be the most cursed!

　　During the tour, your expert on all things paranormal guides you to the Kampong Trails, Changi Beach (where hundreds were massacred by Japanese fighters in WWII), the Old Changi Hospital (extra spooky) and more!

　　Hear first-hand encounters, as well as get to know more about local legends and mythical creatures believed to still roam these streets …

　　30 Release your inner child at the Museum of Ice Cream

　　From New York to Singapore, fall into a world of pastel pink and sprinkles yumminess at the Museum of Ice Cream!

　　This playful museum plays homage to the swirly whirly treat, and is an actual playground of ice-cream-inspired photo opportunities, attractions and activities.

　　Slide into a ball pit of sprinkles, wander through a room of candyfloss dripping from the ceilings and floors, get lost in a maze of pink corridors and do somersaults on the pink jumping castle.

　　Flashing lights, bold colors swishing by in flurries and banging beats, race your friends down the transforming sledding trails at Skyline Luge.

　　The night luge options are the same as daytime endeavors, with the addition of lights and music. Totally 2.6-kilometers of downhill luging, this is divided into four separate tracks.

　　Hurtle through a forest landscape on the 638-meter-long Kupu Kupu Trail.

　　The 658-meter-long Expedition Trail is the fastest, with exciting twists and turns.

　　Count how many plant species you can (quickly) identify along the 628-meter Jungle Trail.

　　For a serious adrenaline rush, the 688-meter-long Dragon Trail awaits!

　　32 Feel like Max Verstappen at the KF1 Karting Circuit

　　Do you crave the need for speed? Designed to world-class standards by international track designer Herman Tilke, the KF1 Karting Circuit is the closest thing to Formula 1 racing (just leaps and bounds safer).

　　Totally just under one kilometer, this go-kart circuit boasts 18 corners and is equipped with a mega track lighting system.

　　Race your friends in the petrol-powered Viper Karts, or take things on a solo mission and try to beat the monthly best time high scores to have your name in lights on the leaderboard. Choose between ones that reach speeds of 30km/h (suitable for novice drivers) or the karts for advanced drivers clock speeds of up to 50 km/h.

　　Want to bring the kids along? There are karts available for the little ones, and there’s a dedicated indoor Kiddy Circuit at its Southkey location.

　　33 Become mesmerized by the Wings of Time show

　　The epitome of this city’s modern-day influences (showcasing Singapore’s technologically innovative side), Wings of Time is a captivating, multi-sensory night show, incorporating special pyrotechnic effects!

　　Head to Siloso Beach (on Sentosa Island), where the evening extravaganza is set up, and the 20-minute show takes place twice a night: at 7.40 PM and 8.40 PM.

　　(We recommend arriving a little earlier to get the best seats in the house, which work on a first-come, first-serve basis, unless you’ve booked the VIP ticket option.)

　　Backdropped by the ocean, the production features laser lights, water, sound, 3D projection mapping and fire effects, and chronicles the sweetest tale of a native prehistoric bird named Shahbaz and his friends as they travel through time and space.

　　It’s a quick history lesson on the Industrial Revolution, the Silk Road, the Mayan Pyramids, our Underwater World and the African Savanna.

　　34 An alternative therapy, make some noise at The Fragment Room

　　Is the kids’ constant nagging or work pressures getting on your last nerves? Rising in popularity around the world, destress and let any pent-up frustrations go at The Fragment Room — a rage room where you can smash, bash and throw anything and everything in sight!

　　Let loose and scream, laugh and even cry if it makes you feel better, and honestly, you really do feel a release after a session!

　　Once you arrive, gear up in a protective jumpsuit and cut-proof gloves, shut your masks and off you go!

　　You’ll be given a baseball bat, crowbar or seasonal weapons to do the dirty work, but there are add-on extras (for an additional cost), like glow-in-the-dark neon smashballs and electronics that purposefully drive you mad until you break it!

　　35 Watch an outdoor film at CHIJMES

　　A social space of funky bars, eateries with global flavors, cute cafes, dessert houses and boutique shops; trendy CHIJMES is where the cool kids come to hang out.

　　However, long before it became an FB, lifestyle and entertainment center, the buildings in which they’re housed were important landmarks, and the second-oldest building in Singapore is here. Caldwell House was built in 1840, and today is a popular wedding venue, and the Gothic-style CHIJMES Hall was constructed in 1901!

　　There’s even a Heritage Trail to follow for a deeper understanding of its history.

　　The Lawn plays host to movie nights, set up across the astro green in this outdoor setting.

　　Book a table at Coriander Leaf for Asian comfort food, Kome Bar for creative Japanese bites, El Mero Mero/Lumbre for flavors of Spain and Michelin-star Whitegrass for a fine-dining experience.

　　36 Learn why the Finnish are the happiest nation at SuperPark

　　Split into three areas: the Adventure Area, the Game Arena and the Freestyle Hall, SuperPark was born in Finland and has now arrived in Singapore. It’s based on the concept of sports-orientated activities that simply bring joy to your life.

　　A standout feature: zones are developed so people of all ages can get involved!

　　Tackle obstacle courses, ride tube slides, bounce on trampolines, swing on flying foxes and compete on the pedal car racing track at the Adventure Area (also with a Kid’s Gym and Kid’s Adventure City playground).

　　From baseball to street basketball, super bow archery, superbowling, super pinball, soccer, valo jump and an iWall, the Game Arena centers on sports.

　　Let loose at the Freestyle Hall, with an augmented climbing wall, skateboarding ramps, an insane trampoline platform, a superclimb wall and a street soccer court!

　　SuperPark closes at 9 PM.

　　37 Taste the most delicious satay at Lau Pa Sat

　　Did you know that one of Singapore’s most iconic street foods are satay sticks? Nicknamed “Satay Street,” there’s no better place for tasting the scrumptious skewers than Lau Pa Sat.

　　Translating to “old market,” the name of this street food haven is befitting, as this is where the city’s first-ever wet market operated out of 150 years ago!

　　Arriving for the satay, there are 10 authentically traditional satay carts, but there are up to 80 food stalls of street food bliss!

　　The cuisines reflect Singapore’s multicultural residents, with flavors from India, China, Malaysia, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea and Indonesia. Apart from the food, there are a handful of hawker-style stalls and kiosks selling odds and sods.

　　Seating is set up outside, and the market hustle starts at 7 PM.

　　38 Get educated on continental culture at the Asian Civilisations Museum

　　One of the top ways to get to know the culture, history and art of any new destination is visiting a museum or gallery, and the Asian Civilisations Museum drips in Asian antiquities and decorative art!

　　Apart from its rotating exhibitions, the permanent galleries are spread across three levels.

　　To learn more on the Trade and the Maritime Silk Routes from the 9th century onwards, head to the first floor where the Maritime Trade and the Tang Shipwreck galleries are located.

　　The second level is centered on various Asian faiths and beliefs, and is split into the Ancestors and Rituals, Ancient Religions, Christian Art and Islamic Art galleries.

　　Level 3 highlights materials and design celebrating ‘Asian aesthetic and craftsmanship,’ and its galleries include Ceramics, Fashion and Textiles and Jewellery.

　　Good to know: on Fridays, the museum only closes at 9 PM.

　　39 Climb to the top of the 18-meter-high Seletar Rocket Tower

　　Any avid bird watchers in the house? If you head down to the north of Singapore today, you’re in for a super surprise!

　　Open 24 hours a day, the Upper Seletar Reservoir Park comprises 15 hectares of natural vegetation as well as the Upper Seletar Reservoir, and it’s a popular spot among locals for evening strolls, light exercise, and bird-watching.

　　A key feature of the park is its Seletar Rocket Tower viewing platform, named after the structure’s shape resembling a rocket. Climb to the top of the tower and see how many feathered friends you can spot flittering in the canopies.

　　Even if you can’t see the yellow creature, you’ll certainly hear the nocturnal Asian Koel, infamous for its LOUD coo-ing sound.

　　Other birds to see here are the changeable hawk-eagle, greater racket-tailed drongos, collared kingfishers, dark-necked tailorbirds and the olive-winged bulbul.

　　40 Hey hipsters, catch a movie at The Projector

　　Thanks to Netflix, going to the movies has kind of lost its allure in the last ten years, right? Nowadays, you can find just about any movie or series online, but FILM IS NOT DEAD!

　　The Projector promotes this with its vintage-style movie cinema, paying ode to the movie houses of the 20th Century.

　　Line-ups change monthly, with a selection of both English and foreign language films, from Korean to French to Chinese, and even Japanese anime (peek the online schedule to see what’s showing that week).

　　Many of the flicks are cinema nouveau vibes, but there are a list of movies from the latest award season. Come weekends, the old-school cinema converts into a disco-disco! Afrobeats, trap, electro, Latin jazz, soul … the DJs know how create a vibe!

　　41 For SG’s best street art, head to Kampong Glam

　　Fashionistas and trend-setters, the Kampong Glam neighborhood lures in locals and travelers with its creative side!

　　Also referred to as “Kampong Gelam,” a fantastic way to get to know your surroundings a little better is starting off on the Kampong Glam Heritage Trail, covering Arab Street, Beach Road, Jalan Sultan and Victoria Street. The trail starts at the Malay Heritage Centre.

　　Haji Lane is known as the Instagrammable street, thanks to the walls splashed in art murals, and the Gelam Gallery is another color-filled space, acting as an open-air gallery.

　　Its uniqueness doesn’t end there; the Vintage Camera Museum is epic!

　　As one would expect, there are cafes, bars and restaurants to match Kampong Glam’s artistic side, such as Twenty Grammes dessert bar and Sushi Airways.

　　42 From innovative to classic, grab drinks at the cocktail bars

　　Singapore is home to some a.m.a.z.i.n.g cocktail bars with talented mixologists and settings to match!

　　Inventive drinks with clean flavor profiles, Live Twice is inspired by 20th-century Japan, and you can see it across the cocktails and interiors.

　　Holidaying with girlfriends? Grab drinks from Nutmeg Clove’s progressive cocktail menu, and this spot has been listed under Asia’s and the World’s Best Bars since 2016!

　　Taylor Adam is a cool hidden speakeasy behind a, well, tailor shop!

　　Funky and fun, Parliament Bar has out-of-this-galaxy drinks, like Naughty Nebula and White Widower, and themed music nights!

　　Feel like you’ve stepped into the Romantic Period (with a modern twist) at stunning Isabel Bar, offering whimsical cocktails made with elixirs!

　　Order one of Alleybar’s signature cocktails, like The Unseen Sour, and this spot takes inspiration from the “Peranakan culture of Emerald Hill.”

　　From Bond Girl to bar starter, Anouska’s is by Anouska Hempel and features a menu of the celeb’s favorite cocktails, using top-shelf, premium spirits only!

　　43  It’s time to ride Asia’s tallest Slingshot!

　　Do you dare to live on the extreme side? Slingshot Singapore takes some serious chutzpah, and if you’re afraid of heights, we suggest moving swiftly along (unless you’re trying to conquer your fears)!

　　What’s the buzz? Nothing will get your blood pumping and hearts racing like being FLUNG into the air 70 meters off the ground on the Slingshot.

　　Safely secured inside a metal-frame cylinder, you’re literally catapulted into the air, experiencing 3 to 5 gs of force!

　　If that’s too much for you, there’s also the GX-5 Extreme Swing (although we don’t know how much less adrenaline-inducing this one is). Flinging at speeds up to 120 km/h, you’ll freefall for 40 meters over the Singapore River!

　　Both rides operate until 11.30 PM down at Clarke Quay.

　　44 Meet award-winning street food vendors during a night food tour

　　Ditch the formal dining settings and venture off on a night food tour! It’s the best way to get to know the local cuisine, street food and residential hot spots!

　　Certain tours double as sightseeing ventures, while others solely focus on the food offerings.

　　Enjoy the next couple of hours visiting the award-winning street food vendors at Lau Pa Sat, sampling bites from at least nine traditional hawker stalls, followed by time around Boat Quay and Clarke Quay, stopping at the speakeasies, bars and specialty stores, like Old Seng Choong bakery.

　　Other night food tours explore the historic and culturally rich area of Katong, where Peranakan traditions are preserved. Meet the cooks behind the scenes, and the walking and food tour is super hands-on.

　　45 Learn something new at the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre

　　Fun fact: roughly 70% of Singapore’s population are Chinese Singaporeans. With Lion City’s melting pot of cultures, become clued up on art and culture at the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre.

　　The cultural center plays host to ever-changing events and exhibitions, and these are spread across various levels.

　　Get to know more about legendary locals from the Hainanese, Hokkien and Cantonese communities, like internationally acclaimed chef Pang Kok Keong.

　　Apart from the expos, seminars, talks, cultural performances and workshops are often on the go, setup indoors or on the SCCC Roof Garden.

　　46 Grab drinks around the river at Boat Quay

　　Flowing through the heart of the CBD, the Singapore River has always played an important socio-economic role in Singapore, from a trading route to tourist landmark.

　　Boat Quay sits on the southern bank of the Singapore River, and its cemented banks are lined with shops, restaurants, bars and young locals in-love hanging out along the waterway.

　　Many operate out of the colorful antique shophouses of traditional Singapura. The city’s expats especially favor this locale, and many of the dining establishments match the crowds.

　　Cool spots for a nightcap? The Penny Black is a traditional English pub that’s always busy (especially when there’s a footie match on), and the ever-ambient JU95 is a stylish and low-lit fusion-style eatery and bar!

　　Opposite Boat Quay is Circular Road, with even more eating and drinking options.

　　47 Explore the city during a fun Vespa night tour

　　Two-wheelers are a popular mode of transport in the Garden City! Feel like a true Singaporean and cruise around the streets during a Vespa night tour.

　　You have the option to drive the moped yourself (if you’re licensed and feel comfortable enough doing so) or hop behind one of the expert drivers.

　　Travel past famous landmarks and not-to-miss monuments, but this tour also likes to show off a different variation of the city, routing you past some lesser-known spots.

　　Kampong Glam, Little India and Chinatown are examples of the various areas you’ll encounter.

　　Feel a little nervous about the whole scooter aspect? There are also vintage Vespa sidecar tours, where you’ll ride around in a sidecar attached to the bike.

　　48 Feel all the island vibrations at the best beach clubs

　　Inspired by the beach clubs along the Spanish shores of Barcelona, enjoy tapas and sangria at FOC Sentosa.

　　The adults-only +Twelve on Palawan Beach has a swim-up bar, VIP cabanas and even private plunge pools!

　　Tanjong Beach Club is one of the OGs previously listed among the World’s Best Beach Clubs, with pools, seating and umbrellas right in the sand.

　　1-Altitude Coast sets itself apart from the rest with its rooftop positioning overlooking the sands below. Another adults-only spot, stay in time for the daily fireworks, drinking in the spectacle from the infinity pool.

　　Multiple pools, chairs and cabanas scattered across the beachfront, and pool parties, find Tipsy Unicorn Beach Club on Sentosa.

　　Taking cue from the tiki bars of Hawaii, Ola Beach Club makes a mean mojito with oceanfront cabanas and a guest pool right on the beach.

　　Have your sundowners at Rumours, with three pools to cool off in, and a yummy menu! Technically categorized as a beach restaurant or bar, in our opinion, these next few match the beach club vibes: Coastes, Aloha Beach Bar, Bikini Bar and Ohana Beach House.

　　49 Laugh into oblivion at the comedy clubs

　　Hold onto your tummies for a rip-roaring evening of laughter at the top comedy clubs.

　　With all the makings of a classic comedy venue, Comedy Masala is considered the city’s best locale, and local and international comedians both take the weekly act stage.

　　Local funnyman Jacky Ng leads a pack of comedians at Jacky and Friends!

　　If any of the faces on the stage at East Coast Comedy look familiar, it’s because their comedians often appear on Netflix or Comedy Central!

　　50 Hunt down the Michelin-listed vendors at Maxwell Food Centre

　　As you can tell by now, street food is ingrained into the culture of this city, and the Maxwell Food Centre is another hawker-style food court to add to your eating agenda.

　　Set up indoors, there are more than 100 vendors and stalls to make, or should we say, eat your way through!

　　So, what sets this food center apart from the rest? The street food is extra cheap and some of the stalls sell traditional dishes you don’t usually find at the more modern street food markets.

　　Must-try hawker stalls include Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice (with a Michelin Bib-Gourmand status), Maxwell Fuzhou Oyster Cake, Jin Hua Fish Head Bee Hoon, Fu Shun Shao La Mian Jia and Sisaket Thai Food.

　　51 Book a table with ABSURDITIES Immersive Dining by ANDSOFORTH for an out-of-this-galaxy dinner experience

　　Foodies, forget everything you know about the concept of fine-dining when entering Restaurant Absurdities (a ‘Multiverse Immersive Dining’ experience that’s “anti-fine dining”).

　　Spread across six omakase-style courses, unlike regular restaurants, where each plate is presented by waiters, you’ll have to work for your chow; entering doors and different rooms for each course (themed to represent fantasy realities).

　　For example, the first course is titled ‘Asylum Coffee;’ the fifth course called ‘The Wizard Room.’

　　Limited to eight patrons per night, ABSURDITIES doesn’t want you to dress up, instead wearing comfy clothes is recommended … hinting at what’s in-store.

　　Add on a cocktail or wine pairing for an additional cost.

　　52 From markets to luxury brands, fill your shopping suitcases

　　Whether you’re looking for luxury brands, market nick-nacks or local fashions, there are plenty of shopping centers, malls and markets that stay open late!

　　Along vibrant Clarke Quay are a whole hoard of bars, restaurants, cafes (even ones with art jamming workshops), and lifestyle retail spaces, including its latest CQ @ Clarke Quay.

　　53 Pretend to be Elizabeth Swann during dinner cruises

　　We fully believe in trying new things (hey, we’re true travelers at heart), and the same can be said for meal times. Among the zany things to do in Singapore at night, kill two birds, or even three, with one stone with a dinner cruise along the Singapore River (it’s dinner, a river cruise and a sightseeing expedition all in one shot)!

　　As the sun begins to disappear, set sail onboard the four-mast Royal Albatross for a five-course feast of international delights. Private tables are set on the upper deck, and it’s the boat’s design that makes it even more of a special occasion.

　　Opt for a dinner cruise embarking at 7 PM when the city lights are in full display, boating along the coast of Sentosa Island during your dinner buffet.

　　Residents or anyone traveling with their fur babies, there’s even a FUR-ST Cat Cruise, where you can bring kitty along, with three or four-course menu options.

　　Multiple venues comprise the hub, including the National Stadium, which doubles as a concert venue (where T-Swift plays at as part of her Eras Tour in Singapore). It also houses the OCBC Arena (home to sports associations like the Singapore Taekwondo Federation and Fencing Singapore).

　　Indoor sports to join are badminton, basketball, netball, table tennis and volleyball.

　　Skateboarding, lawn bowls, beach volleyball, basketball on the hard courts and jogging paths make up the outdoor sports.

　　But wait, there are even water sports available, such as aqua fitness classes, synchro, dragon boats, kayaking, canoeing, learning how to dive, surfing and recreational swimming.

　　There’s also rock climbing, a lazy river, a giant chess board, kids playground, walking trails and guided tours!

　　56 Walk along the highest pedestrian bridge in SG, Henderson Waves

　　Forming part of the Southern Ridges, the Henderson Waves really show off in the evenings, when the rolling, architecturally-inspiring walking bridge is all lit up come nightfall, illuminating a pathway above the trees.

　　Constructed in 2008, the hypnotic bridge is a connector between Mount Faber Park and Telok Blangah Hill Park, running for 274 meters above Henderson Road (hence the name).

　　It was built 36 meters above the street, with numerous covered seating spots to take a rest, admire its structural integrity and pause for a moment of peace and quiet.

　　Its wooden ribs (shaped after a wave) take on a warm glow at night, transforming your perspective of its shape!

　　57 Bring the kids to Jewel Changi Canopy Park before flying home

　　Did you know that the World’s Best Airport happens to be Singapore’s? Uh, its got an indoor waterfall!

　　With ten stories to explore, Jewel Changi Airport is unlike any landing field, and a standout feature of the airport is on level five: Jewel Changi Canopy Park.

　　Children love this inspiring playground, but it’s designed for all ages, and if you’ve got time to kill before an evening flight, set aside an hour for this one.

　　Attractions within are the slipping Discovery Slides, Foggy Bowls (a playground of mist), the Petal Garden, where blooms are transformed into artwork, and the Topiary Walk.

　　There’s also hedge and mirror mazes, and bouncing and walking nets to play on.

　　There’s no longer a rush to have kids like in our parents time, and nowadays, many millennials first start trial runs with fur babies! If you’re missing your fluffy children back home, pop into the adorable The Cat Cafe.
