Celebrate Music, Art, and Food on Your Next Trip to Singapore

Behind its towering office buildings, high-end malls, and fancy hotels and accommodation, Singapore has a thriving culture that celebrates music, art, and food. From an annual rock fest and nightly comedy shows to poetry slams and ice cream buffet, here are some awesome ways to appreciate the different side of this vibrant urban jungle.

Party like a rockstar
For the past years, Singapore's concert scene has been flooded by big names in the music industry. At the recent Singapore Rock Festival held last January, metal heads saw legendary icons Alice in Chains, KORN, and Rob Zombie perform live. This December, it's the EDM fans' turn to party at ZoukOut 2014. Some of the big names in this year's line up include UK trio Above & Beyond, Steve Aoki, Skrillex, and Damian Lazarus. If you want to catch this big event, securing plane tickets and reservation at a boutique hotel in Singapore is a good idea.

Those who want to listen to music without spending for tickets can head to the Singapore Botanical Gardens. Free concerts at the Shaw Foundation Symphony Stage are scheduled for visitors. The Esplanade Outdoor Theatre also hosts local emerging artists who perform on weekends.

Laugh and listen to local acts
Get a good laugh with your friends from the witty remarks of Singapore's local stand up comics. The comedy scene here has gained popularity, and the fever has spread across bars in the city. One of the popular spots include Comedy Masala at Home Club, which has shows on Tuesday. If you need some mid-week entertainment, you can also try Penny Black, located 5 minutes away from Hotel Clover the Arts.

Fancy watching a poetry slam? Word Forward, a non-profit company, organizes a monthly battle of aspiring poets at Blu Jaz Cafe. Usually, before the showdown begins, there's an open mic session for those who want to try out their rhyme skills.

Appreciate food and art
Every year, Art Stage Singapore showcases Southeast Asian contemporary art in an international stage. Artists, curators, gallery owners, and art lovers gather to celebrate masterful creations, and engage in sales opportunities. This year's event welcomed over 45,700 people for over 5 days. The next event, which is slated at the Marina Bay Sands, is expecting a larger audience from all parts of the world.

If you can't get enough sweet creations from the different shops in the city, then might as well make your own. BakinCalf, a modest baking school in the Yishun area, whips up hands-on baking classes for foodies who love French macaroons. Udders Ice Cream, meanwhile, aims to satisfy the craving of ice-cream junkies with an ice-cream making workshop that includes an all-you-can-eat ice cream buffet. There's no need to eat dessert in your accommodation in Singapore after this one.
