This year’s edition follows the success of 2024, which welcomed 22,000 visitors and achieved S$5.3 million in sales. Last year also saw nearly one quarter of visitors (46%) purchasing art at the Fair, with 6% making their very first art purchase — proof that the Fair’s role in shaping new collectors and making art more approachable for all.

A Regional Focus

This year, the Fair shifts its lenses to a more regional focus with 180 Southeast Asian artists present, representing a 24% increase over the past three years. At its heart is the Ubah Rumah Residency, a special project highlighting emerging artists inspired by ecology, care, and maritime heritage across the Singapore-Malaysia-Riau region.

Its name, Ubah Rumah, or “home of change,” reflects its ethos of exploring what it means to host, adapt, and create in a shifting world. One artist will also be chosen for a solo show at Blueprint Art Space in 2026.

Exhibiting artists are:

Visual artists: Djuwadi Ahwal (Indonesia), Lusiano Limono (Indonesia), Ireen Tan (Malaysia), Florence Cinco (Philippines), Ricky Yeo (Singapore), Wendy Zhang (Singapore)

Performance artists: Yeo Lyle & Thain Siew Kim (Malaysia, Tunggu Makan, 2022)

Celebrating SG60 Through Art and Identity

In line with Singapore’s 60th anniversary, the Fair will cast a spotlight on how art reflects national identity, heritage, and community, reminding visitors that art can be both meaningful and accessible, not only for museums or mansions, but for every home.

Visitors can expect works that speak to personal memory and place, especially from local artists who explore themes of multiculturalism, family history, and a local’s everyday experience.

Beyond the Galleries

Visitors can expect hands-on workshops at The Workshop, family-friendly activities at the evolved Children’s Art Studio, a refreshed culinary experience with local flavors, explore the curated #SPOTLIGHT exhibition, and encounter Special Projects across the fair. Affordable Art Fair Singapore also continues its partnership with the Caregiving Welfare Association, with proceeds from activities supporting caregivers and seniors.

“2025 is not just about growth,” shared Alan Koh, Fair Director of Affordable Art Fair Singapore. “It’s about rooting deeper into our region — reinvesting in our communities, creating real value for galleries, and continuing to offer a space where people fall in love with art for the first time, or all over again. That’s always been the joy and purpose of Affordable Art Fair.”

Tickets to the fair are now available on the Affordable Art Fair Singapore website. Tickets are priced from S$19 (Early Bird Tickets from Sept. 9 to Oct. 5), S$24 (Advanced Tickets from Oct. 6 to Nov. 13), S$28 (Standard Tickets), and S$13.50 (Students or aged 60+).

The spotlight shines on the AUFF University Edition Finale, where top student teams from across Singapore will compete in a modified HYROX challenge. After weeks of campus qualifiers and pre-finals training, these teams will face off in a high-intensity showdown that tests endurance, strength, and teamwork.

Each team member must complete a series of stations, from 1,000m runs to wall balls and burpee broad jumps, with final scores determined by total time and bonus points earned during pre-finals activities.

But it’s not just the youth making waves. The Team Strong Silvers, a group of senior athletes, will take on the same stations alongside Gen Z competitors, proving that fitness knows no age. Their participation is a bold reminder that movement is for everyone, and that age is never a barrier to strength or transformation.

The event is part of AIA Singapore’s broader Rethink Healthy philosophy and aligns with its AIA One Billion movement, which aims to engage one billion people across Asia in healthier living. With both University and Open Editions, the FitnessFest offers an inclusive platform for anyone ready to challenge themselves and embrace functional fitness.

It’s always magical to wander through Singapore’s Chinatown under a canopy of lanterns. And this year, that magic is magnified. The Chinatown Mid-Autumn Festival 2025 is a celebration of mooncakes and moonlight as well as a tribute to 60 years of Singaporean independence, weaving together tradition, progress, and multicultural pride.

From Sept. 7 to Oct. 20, 2025, Chinatown transforms into a radiant precinct filled with handcrafted displays, cultural programs, and community festivities. The theme, “60 Glorious Years: Celebrating Mid-Autumn in Singapore,” honors the nation’s journey while inviting people of all backgrounds to share in the joy of storytelling and togetherness.

The heart of the celebration is a stunning eight-meter-tall installation featuring the number 60, flanked by rabbits, orchids, and mooncakes set against the Singapore skyline. Streets like New Bridge Road, Eu Tong Sen Street, and South Bridge Road come alive with glowing lotus flowers, jade pendants, and mythical scenes of Chang’e, the moon goddess.

The Official Street Light-Up and Opening Ceremony takes place on Sept. 18, 2025 at Kreta Ayer Square, officiated by Minister Josephine Teo and other community leaders. Visitors can also enjoy a rich lineup of events: the Chinatown Festive Fair, Lantern Design Competition, Mass Lantern Walk, and even a Tea Appreciation Gathering. A special Lantern Adoption Programme promotes sustainability by allowing the public to take home lanterns after the festival ends.

Organized by the Chinatown Festival Committee and supported by the Kreta Ayer–Kim Seng Citizens’ Consultative Committee, the festival is a vibrant showcase of Singapore’s multiculturalism and enduring community spirit.

Whether a local or a visitor, this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival offers more than just photo ops because it’s a glowing reminder of resilience, unity, and shared heritage. To explore the full program and plan your visit, head to Chinatown Festivals’ website, Instagram, and Facebook.
