In the Singapore Grand Prix, the excitement doesn't end on the track.

Final headliners for the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2026 are finally unveiled, adding The Killers and Lana Del Rey to the Padang Stage and completing what the promoter calls one of the biggest entertainment lineups in the race's history.

The Killers play the Padang Stage in Zone 4 after F1 qualifying on Oct. 10, 2026. Lana Del Rey takes the same stage on Oct. 11 in her first-ever Singapore concert.

The two additions round out a lineup of more than 30 acts performing across 10 stages between sessions, turning the 772,000-square-meter Circuit Park into a three-day music festival alongside the high-octane Formula 1 race.

But that's not all for the Padang Stage. JJ Lin and rising K-Pop group CORTIS open on Oct. 9, while Zara Larsson performs on Oct. 10 and James Arthur ends it on Oct. 11.

Elsewhere, Janet Jackson plays the Wharf Stage in Zone 1 on Oct. 11, with Split Enz taking the same stage on Oct. 9 and Goo Goo Dolls on Oct. 10. The Barge Stage in Zone 1 leans dance with Major Lazer Soundsystem, DJ Snake, and TOKiMONSTA, Rev Run, Flight Facilities, Mark Ronson, and ZHU throughout the weekend.

Zone 4 is an area that keeps giving. The Downtown Stage hosts Spacey Jane, Borderline, Ezra Collective, Ocean Alley, PREP, and The Rubens. The Waterside Stage runs Shingo Nakamura, Ape Drums, Tinzo+Jojo, HYO, and Monochrome. The DBS Foundation Outdoor Theatre at Esplanade features Momocurly, Pleasantry and Lola Amour, while the Garage hosts DJ Admin, SHANE2SWEET, and Teenagepop spinning all three nights.

All tickets include access to Zone 4 performances, the Padang Stage included. Getting into Wharf and Barge stages requires a Zone 1 ticket. Tickets are day-specific, so check the date before checking out. Full lineup is available online via the Singapore GP website here.

Tickets are running out! Several categories are already sold out, so run online and grab them before they're gone.

Mondrian Singapore Duxton is making Pride Month 2026 impossible to skip, rolling out a lineup that spans live music, a 90s queer trivia throwback event, gay speed dating, and a pink pool party — all in the span of two weeks.

The Duxton Hill hotel, an official Pink Fest 2026 partner, launched its June programming with the "He Ate My Heart" Drag Brunch, setting a campy, high-energy tone for what has shaped up to be one of its most ambitious Pride calendars yet. Three more events remain, each distinct in vibe but united by a commitment to the LGBTQIA+ community.

First up is Pride: QYO Live at Jungle Ballroom on June 17, from 8 PM to 11 PM. QYO is a Singaporean pop-rock and alternative singer and songwriter.

The following Wednesday, June 24, Mondrian teams up with Prout and the Katong Queers for Queer Trivia Night — 90s Throwback Social Edition, from 7:30 to 9 PM at Christina's Wood-Fired Grill & Bar. Redesigned this year as a full social experience, the evening layers gay speed dating on top of trivia rounds hosted by Preetipls.

For the trivia night, the top prize is a one-night stay in Mondrian's Suite King with breakfast for two, valued at S$750. Early bird tickets are S$25 when booked by June 12; general admission runs S$30.

Rounding out the month is Hyper Pink Splash on June 28, from 3 to 8 PM at Canyon Club. Presented by Hyper and billed as the Pink Ball Recovery Pool Party, the afternoon event is part of the Pink Fest 2026 programming. It's a fun, sun-soaked cap to a stacked Pride calendar.

Looking for something to fill your June nightlife calendar? Then mark June 9 to 14, 2026 because something big is happening.

Singapore Cocktail Crossover (SGCX) brings six days of bar takeovers, guest shifts, lifestyle workshops, live music, food pairings, and festival programs across the city.

Billed as a "citywide celebration of cocktails, culture, and creativity," the lineup is nothing short of packed. It includes more than 15 international guest bars, several of which can be found in the World's 50 Best Bars list, and more than 50 international brands.

The updated program for Singapore's first cocktail cultural week is now live. Across the week, cocktails are expected to start from S$20, while drinks during the Festival weekend are priced at S$18 nett and up.

SGCX is split into two parts. From June 9 to 12, the event will roll out neighborhood collaborations across Singapore's heritage districts, with each day centered on a different cultural area. The activations will pair cocktails with food, fashion, music, and performance.

On June 9, the program kicks off with events along Bugis, Circular Road, and Marina Bay. Highlights include Hope & Sesame at ATLAS by Cointreau from 8 PM to 12 MN, followed by Bar Us at Sushi Samba by The Orientalists Spirits from 11 PM to 2 AM.

The following day, June 10, will feature Maison Mahjong at Side Door by Diageo and TAX at Elephant Room by Sazerac, both from 8 PM to 12 MN. Citadel will take over Milli Lounge by Solisca from 11 PM to 2 AM, with programming stretching through Tanjong Pagar and Bukit Pasoh.

On June 11, the party continues around Amoy, Duxton, and Neil Road. Soka will appear at Stay Gold Flamingo by Honeyland Intl. from 8 PM to 12 MN, while Smoke and Bitters takes over Sago House by BY.ARTISANS. Later that night, Root Down will appear at Jungle Ballroom by Rachelle The Rabbit Distillery from 11 PM to 2 AM.

An equally packed Friday can be expected on June 12 across Orchard, River Valley, and Robertson Quay. Paradiso will appear at Lavo by The Orientalists Spirits from 8 PM to 12 MN, while G.O.D. heads to Manhattan by Mermaid. Sip and Guzzle will take over Burnt Ends Bar by Michter's from 9 PM to 12 MN, and Bar Leone will appear at Wonder Room at The Singapore EDITION by Campari from 11 PM to 2 AM.

The final weekend, June 13 and 14, shifts into festival mode at Mett Singapore. More than 50 international brands and guest bars will pour curated cocktails alongside live music, DJ sets on the terrace, acoustic sessions, styling showcases, luxury food pairings, and hands-on workshops covering cocktails and much more. Street food from local and international vendors will also be available throughout the weekend.

Lively beats from Yujin, Kaye & Hookstyle, and Candice B., plus GrooveTop by Aurora, Raaj, and Ramesh are also ready to keep the party going.

SGCX is led by four industry figures: Henry Stonham, who led the launch of Bar Convent Singapore; Caryn Cheah, an operations and event strategist behind Lil Big with experience across Bacardi Legacy and Amber Lounge in Monaco and Abu Dhabi; Vijay Mudaliar, founder of Native and Analogue Initiative; and Peter Chua, director of Composed Concepts and owner of Night Hawk.

Together, the founders aim to highlight Singapore's role as a global hub for cocktail and lifestyle culture while spotlighting cross-cultural storytelling.

Tickets are already available for purchase online via this link. Find the citywide and festival map posted on their Instagram page.

Nearly three months after their soft launch, Filmhouse Singapore is ready to properly open their doors — equipped with bean bags, lamps, and snazzy bar counters.

The independent cinema and cultural space in Golden Mile Tower is celebrating their official welcome with "Filmhouse Warming," a month-long program of film, music, markets, and community gatherings running from the end of April to May 2026. It's a jam-packed lineup, both a fitting thank-you to early supporters and a fuller introduction to the venue, Singapore's latest "third space" for moving visuals.

To kick off the festivities is their new "Music in Film" series, which explores the emotional and cultural role of music on screen. Alongside screenings and film-focused programming, Filmhouse will host quiz nights, live performances, markets, and late-night gatherings — bringing together cinephiles, artists, music fans, and curious first-timers.

On Apr. 30, the celebration begins with Film Quiz Night, hosted by Ritz, Trailer Bar SG, and Hidzir Junaini. The free-entry event will run from 6:30 PM to 8:15 PM, with an RSVP required through Filmhouse's online link.

Then on May 1, Filmhouse will host "A Kopistan Launch: K & Beyond," a multidisciplinary evening featuring wares from Goni Room, Mouldy Hues, and Project Coal, as well as music by The Vibe, Swara, Heavyitch, Fern (Shrub), and The Vibe. Event begins at 5 PM, while the music starts at 10 PM until late. Entry is free, with donations appreciated.

Festivities continue on May 9 with "Sing Song Social Club: The Michael Edition," a community choir event paired with a screening of "Michael." Doors open at 3:30 PM, with the program running from 4 PM to 7:30 PM. Ticket details will be announced later.

Live music takes center stage on May 21 with "The Warriors Jam," an R&B fusion community jam led by Tim De Cotta & The Warriors, along with the RnB Fusion Community. The event begins at 8:30 PM and is free to enter.

On May 22, the experimental performance series "Endless Return, Returns." will bring art and music performances spearheaded by XUE & XERVIXIA, godkorine, Mervin Wong, hexadecimal, Awayfromkeyboard x rudi0s, and more. The late-night event begins at 10 PM, with ticketing information to follow.

Filmhouse shifts into a music marketplace on May 23 with "Bizzaro Bazaar," featuring Bizarro Mart & Friends. The market, running from 2 PM to 8 PM, will offer vinyl records, CDs, and cassettes, giving local collectors a chance to find rare gems!

The month closes on May 30 with "Housekeeping (It's a Wrap!)," a finale featuring live bands and DJ sets from Tomoblu, Fickle, and Krunkle, with more acts and details to be announced soon. The event begins at 8 PM and runs late.

Members will be able to earn points from film and snack purchases, made online or on-site, and eventually redeem rewards such as popcorn and movie tickets.

Four-HandsRestaurantsDinner Menus

For two nights this May 2026, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur will meet together for a four-hands dinner that blends rainforest foraging and fine-dining elegance.

Willow Restaurant Singapore is set to host Chef Aidan Low of Akar Kuala Lumpur for "Boys in the Jungle," a four-hands dinner this May 22 and 23, 2026.

Priced at S$338++ per person, the limited-run collaboration brings together two chefs with distinct, but complementary approaches to ingredient-led cuisine.

The dinner pairs Aidan, whose restaurant Akar was newly awarded one MICHELIN star, with Willow's Chef Nicolas Tam, whose contemporary pan-Asian restaurant also earned one MICHELIN star from 2023 to 2025.

At the heart of the event is a shared focus on terroir, seasonality, and fresh, native produce. Akar's menu draws inspiration from Malaysia's local ingredients, wild herbs, and indigenous produce. "Akar" means "root" in Malay — underscoring the restaurant's dedication to exploring the country's "mega-diverse ecosystem" and multicultural exchange.

Willow, on the other hand, celebrates seasonal ingredients through a modern, pan-Asian dining lens. They begin with strong produce brought to life with layers of technique, texture, and balance. Tam's "quiet precision with playful flavor" is shaped by Asian influences and is refined through French technique.

Diners can expect a menu that moves through "the richness of Malaysia's indigenous landscape and Asian ingredients," a dialogue between two culinary philosophies.

Aside from being "a shared journey across kitchens, discipline, and land," the dinner is also a friendly collaboration. With the cheeky event title, "Boys in the Jungle," these two chefs are taking diners through the rainforest, giving them access to one of Malaysia's compelling contemporary culinary voices — all within the heart of Singapore.

Seats are limited. Foodies interested in this cross-border gastronomical conversation can make reservations online.

The event also highlights both traditional and newer, sustainability-driven designs shaping the future of marine travel.

Beyond the boats, the festival expands into a broader lifestyle experience, with on-water activities, dining, and wellness activities across ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove.

On land, visitors can explore the Festival Village, filled with food and drink concepts from wood-fired barbecue to craft cocktails, alongside wellness sessions, masterclasses, and live entertainment.

Daily supercar parades featuring brands such as Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini, and McLaren also add to the atmosphere alongside DJ sets, shifting the marina from a daytime showcase to a more social, evening setting.

Usually out for a morning walk with your doggo? Why not switch up your walking routes with South Korean fitness personality and content creator Amotti!

 “Paws for a Cause: Dog Walk with Amotti” invites everyone to a sunrise dog walk at Universal Studios Singapore before opening hours. Set against the backdrop of the park’s film-inspired zones, the experience blends quiet, early morning access with photo moments and a relaxed community vibe — complete with wagging tails and cute doggos!

Happening this Apr. 5, 2026, from 7 AM to 8:30 AM, the event is in support of Guide Dogs Singapore, an organization that trains and pairs guide dogs with the blind and visually impaired community. 70% of the ticket proceeds for “Paws for a Cause: Dog Walk with Amotti” will go towards the organization’s work.

Each ticket is priced at S$70 per person and includes a takeaway breakfast bento. Guests are encouraged to continue their morning walks at nearby pet-friendly dining and retail spots at WEAVE.

Triple Play Pass holders and Universal Studios Singapore Pass holders stand a chance to receive 1 in 20 complimentary tickets to the event. Details on how to express interest will be shared soon.
