We already have a late-night tradition, a dependable one that rotates between a trusty selection of midnight movies and suppers. But from 17 to 25 August 2018, it’s Singapore Night Festival once again – a yearly ritual where we break away from our mundane routines to appreciate the beauty of night.
Much like Singapore Night Festivals of yesteryear, the entire civic district will transform into a jumble of glowing colours, moving projections, and thoughtful art sculptures. But this year is special: CHIJMES will be showcasing Before The Word at the Lawn – a lit-up sculpture by artist Pierre Ranzini to symbolise the meeting of different cultures.
Head over for a glimpse, and while you’re there, flash your Singapore Night Festival 2018 Fan to use these 12 dining and lifestyle promos!

For Singapore Night Festival 2018, CHIJMES is joining in with their own light installation: Before The Word by artist Pierre Ranzini. You won’t miss it on your way to dinner – it’s an intricate display of letters stacked into a pile, all larger-than-life and glowing brightly in the dark. Much like how we have different races in Singapore, artist Ranzini intended the artful placement of letters to symbolise the meeting of cultures.
Singapore Night Festival 2018 means plenty of walking around to see the art installations, and CHIJMES knows you’ll end the night with sore feet and a rumbling stomach. Whether you’re craving barbecued wagyu or a drink at a whisky bar, CHIJMES has a selection of restaurants and lifestyle vendors that’s perfect to round off the night.
Nearby, Capitol Piazza will be having weekend dance performances and dining offers too.
