The Taiwan-inspired Shilin Night Market first hit Singapore’s shores last year at Kranji and the BBT, street food snacks and bevy of accessories on offer instantly drew in the crowds. Those missing that experience will be glad to know that the event will still be going on… online, that is.
Over 2 weekends from 12th – 14th June and 19th – 21st June 2020, join Digital Shilin Singapore as they bring the fun online with 4 zones – Eat, Shop, Play and Fun. The online market is loaded with performances and prizes, virtual hangouts, and live streams of F&B and products that can be purchased and delivered straight to you.

If you’ve ever visited a similar market or festival, you’ll know that the colourful drinks, street snacks and whimsical desserts are some of the main highlights to expect. This June, these delicacies, including new BBT creations from Playmade such as Grape Yakult Black Oolong Milk Tea with Honey Pearls, braised pork bowls from Jiak by Jin Feng, special bundle sets from Tea Valley and Jewels Rock Sugar, as well as golden durian desserts from Golden Moments are just a click away.
Some F&B stores will be live-streaming a preview of their dishes for you to get a closer look at what’s up for sale before you order!

Any night market trip wouldn’t be complete without picking up a couple of knick-knacks along the way. In this case, the goodies will be available to browse and purchase via the online platform, sent straight to your doorstep instead.

For an engaging, interactive experience at home, the organisers have partnered with GOMO by Singtel to create “Stack-A-Mo” – a box-aligning, stacking game whereby the top 3 winners walk away with Adidas vouchers.
On top of that, there are Shilin Singapore-exclusive filters on social media you can play around with and challenge your friends to, such as “Finish the Song Lyric” on Instagram.
