Music festivals-wise, it seems like the Little Red Dot is slowly stepping up her game when it comes to bringing the beats to fans across the island. Waterbomb Singapore 2025 is just over the horizon, and for a taste of what local artistes can drum up, look no further than the upcoming Sing60 Music Festival happening this year-end.
In case you’ve not heard, another one’s headed our way real soon – Bubbling & Boiling Festival Music & Arts Festival. Hailing from China, the 2-day affair’s happening at Resorts World Sentosa this September; here’s all you need to know about it.

Since Bubbling & Boiling Music & Arts Festival is a China-based IP, expect some big names from the Mandopop scene to pop up when the festival swings around this September. The festival lineup also features world-renowned K-pop artistes, as well as a slew of international names who’ll all be taking to the stage to delight the crowds.
To get you all excited, day 1 of the festival will see the likes of K-pop superstars stealing the spotlight; girl group i-dle and EXO’s XIUMIN will be the ones to catch on the big stage. Meanwhile, up-and-coming boy group CRAVITY is all set to captivate the audience, as with CHEETAH, winner of the first season of Unpretty Rapstar, who’ll be keeping the crowd hyped up with her fierce charm.

For those wanting to see more of their favourite Mandopop artistes in action, head down for the second day of the festival instead. Cai Xu Kun AKA KUN will be headlining day 2 with his boyish good looks, while Cantopop mainstay Joey Yung’s bringing her buttery vocals to the party too.
For some variety, expect the Kansas City-based Anson Seabra to serenade you with his indie hits, and show some love to the China-SIngapore duo that is BZ1 too, when they bust out their electronic folk jams. Here are the artistes who’ll be performing at Bubbling & Boiling Music & Arts Festival at a glance:
Although the SG60 energy has dampened down with the passing of National Day, the festive vibes will still be in full force as we head into the rest of 2025. That’s because we’ve still got music festivals like Bubbling & Boiling Music & Arts Festival to look forward to, as well as the remaining landslide of concerts and live performances in Singapore happening later this year.
