What to do and see in Singapore, Singapore: The Best Concerts & Shows

November 8, 2021 Venice Greaves

The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

Spectra - A Light And Water Show

Reviewed By SUDIPCHAKRABORTY_134 - Dhaka City, Bangladesh

Marina Bay has two different identity one at day & another one at night. During night time the environment seems to be magical & superb following glittering skyline, flyer, super-tree groves, bridge, Marina Bay Sands Hotel, shopping mall, theatres, museums & boats on night river cruises. Suddenly we were in front of the Marina Bay Sands shopping mall by 9 pm & discovered the magic of Spectra, a free-to-public outdoor light and water show displayed over the water. Really we were lucky enough to observe such spectacular show being immersed in a beautiful symphony of music, water and light. Hundreds of spectators enjoyed the show. This 15-minute show with dancing water fountains, colourful visual arts, soothing music & special lighting effects are worthy to watch. There are benches in front of the show area to facilitate visitors. There is a chance to be in touch with the mists. Moreover, this is totally a free show. Showtimes: Sunday to Thursday – 8pm & 9pm Friday & Saturday – 8pm, 9pm and 10pm This was a really wonderful visit & my daughters enjoyed a lot.

The Singapore Repertory Theatre continues to establish ties with some of the best theatre practitioners in the world, adding a new dimension to the local arts industry and elevating it to the world stage.

Reviewed By ArtofTravelAsia

Brilliant production of play - first overseas since its Broadway debut - by SRT in Singapore. There’s comedy, there’s drama, there’s thought-provoking messages. Fact checking, fake news and responsible journalism all comes in for scrutiny. With the coronavirus rampant - but well under control in Singapore - it’s great that theatres like SRT continue to share the best. The show must go on!
