Singapore News and Information
About
Oly Bennet here, your globetrotting sports nut and proudly self-proclaimed king of quirky competitions, welcoming all you fabulous listeners to Things to do in Singapore! It's Saturday, November 1, 2025, where the Lion City is buzzing with post-Halloween energy, blue skies, and maybe just the perfect sprinkle of tropical humidity to keep you motivated—and maybe slightly dewy—on your daily adventures.
First up, let's take Singapore's current vibe for a spin. The city is flushed with festival fever, a touch of Halloween hangover, and a crisp shot of excitement as families, foodies, and music fans hit the streets. Whether you’re ducking into air-conditioned wonderlands or out braving the heat for an epic selfie, today’s got you covered.
Now, ready for some action? Here’s a whistle-stop tour of the hottest happenings in Singapore today. Brace yourself:
Sake fans, start your engines! Singapore’s biggest Sake Matsuri is rolling out at Jewel Changi Airport, level 4, Changi Experience Studio. It’s the 11th edition, and it’s a Halloween special—so expect not only more than 400 artisan sakes and signature spirits but also some spooky surprises. The event runs in three sessions between noon and 9 pm, and rumor has it, you can even score a collectible Sake Matsuri tasting glass. Hydration tip: Pace yourself between sake sips!
If you’re looking to dial up the decibels, Baybeats 2025 at the Esplanade is your destination. Singapore’s largest free indie and alternative music festival features a marathon lineup of local and international bands with acts like Saints Amongst Sinners taking the stage at 5 and 7:30 pm. There’s Festival Village shopping, DIY craft workshops, and a friend-making (or, frankly, yarn-spinning) opportunity around every corner.
Got kids, or just young at heart? Make a beeline for the Halloween Boo Bash tonight, 7 to 9:30 pm at Blk 782 Woodlands Crescent. The costumes, community games, and candy will be the stuff of suburban legend! If you’re more into book smarts than broomsticks, the Singapore Art Book Fair at Whitestone Gallery, Tanjong Pagar Distripark is in full swing. Expect zines, offbeat print ephemera, plus craft workshops for the creatively inclined.
Oh, and because no one ever chills quite like a sunflower, the Sunflower Surprise at Gardens by the Bay rolls on—thousands of sunflowers all posing, waiting for your camera. Best Instagram backdrop in town, hands down.
Switching gears to news you can use: If you’re hunting for a new food haunt, whispers on the gastronomic grapevine say that several hawker heroes have just set up shop around Tanjong Pagar—perfect fuel for your citywide wander. For those hopping the MRT, the system is running on its regular schedule, with extra services tonight for festival crowds. Your late-night laksa run is safe!
Here are some can't-miss experiences: Try a scenic walk down the Southern Ridges, weaving from Mount Faber to HortPark—the views at dawn or dusk are unbeatable. If hidden treasures are your thing, hunt for murals in the backstreets of Tiong Bahru. Movie buff? The Star Wars Pop-Up Library at Changi Airport Terminal 3 is open till 10pm for a lightsaber-lit literary fix, plus trivia quizzes.
Local tip from Oly: Thirsty after festival hopping? Swing by a kopitiam and ask for “kopi si kosong peng”—that’s a local iced coffee with evaporated milk and no sugar. Purists say it’s the best way to taste Singapore’s coffee culture.
To wrap it up, don’t forget to check out tomorrow’s cultural treats like more Baybeats action and special exhibitions at the Singapore Art Museum. And heads up, anime fans—Anime Festival Asia is landing at Suntec later this month. I’ll have the lowdown on the next episode.
