Pickleball Night Live: Singapore’s First DJ-Powered Pickleball Social

Play! Pickle introduces Pickleball Night Live, a new Friday-night social that blends fast-paced pickleball with nightlife energy. Designed as a mix of structured play and casual mingling, the event combines rotating games, a live DJ, drinks, and a colour-coded wristband system that lets participants signal their social preferences for the evening — from “just here for the vibes” to “open to meeting new people”.
Held in a fully air-conditioned indoor venue, the night is split into two zones: brightly lit courts for gameplay and a lounge-style social area with music and drinks. Games rotate every 15 minutes to encourage interaction, while beginners can opt for light coaching support. Equipment is provided, making the event accessible even for first-timers.
A highlight of the evening is the wristband system, which adds a playful but respectful layer to social interaction, helping guests navigate conversations and connections comfortably throughout the night.

Testimonials from Past Students
“This course has been an absolute game-changer. It wasn’t just theory in a slide deck, it was real, relevant, and designed for impact. Each week built on the last, covering everything from the history of sexology to anatomy, communication, consent, sexual diversity, and cultural competence. I loved the balance of evidence-based content with inclusive, pleasure-positive approaches that reflect the realities of modern relationships and sexual health. One of the absolute highlights for me was the triad work. I learned so much from my triad mates, their perspectives, experiences, and feedback added layers to my understanding that I could never get from the handouts alone. It made the learning richer, more dynamic, and so much more human. I’m walking away with language, strategies, and confidence that I can apply in my advocacy. This wasn’t just education; it was equipping me with my sexology “superpowers” for life.” – Brightly Abby, 12 Aug 2025 (3rd intake)
“Human beings are really complicated and there are even more permutations when people get into relationships. There’s no one size fits all approach to relationships or sexual relationships and we do not all have to fit into the social construct to be okay. i.e., Sex does not have to be only penetrative to be called sex.” – Shayne, Week 10 Couples Therapy and Sex Therapy (3rd intake)
“It’s given me the opportunity to reflect on a deeper level about my sexuality, as well as my partner’s sexuality in a manner that has opened up more conversation, exploration, and awareness in our relationship. Discussions with my partner also helped me understand how a client may need to be incredibly mindful of the safety and reassurance they offer their partner when having such discussions.” – Anonymous, Week 7 Sexual Fantasies, Kinks, and Pornography (3rd intake)
“This week’s theme on listening, framed through the three dimensions—Listening to What is Said, Listening to What is Felt, and Listening to What is Emerging—has significantly deepened my personal growth and understanding of sexuality education. This integrative listening approach fostered a more holistic and compassionate engagement with the subject, reinforcing the importance of both cognitive and emotional receptivity in sexuality education.” – Catherine Toh, Week 5 Communication Skills in Sexology (3rd intake)
“I often struggle to balance the differences between couples, especially when compromises often come from the partner that is more exploratory. It is interesting to hear that with safety and respect for the lower libido/ desires, it invites the other partner to explore out of their comfort zone. Although we agree that the incompatibility might sometimes mean couples choose to go their separate ways, the focus on creating safety gave both partners a chance to consider their partner’s preference.” – Alicia Phua, Week 5 Communication Skills in Sexology (3rd intake)
“One of the greatest new insights I gained was just the vast amount of knowledge a sex counsellor had to have. And that makes sense because as much as sex is not spoken about in public usually, there are so many aspects of sexuality and it is only ethical for a sex counsellor to be adept in the knowledge.” – Julian Lim, Week 1 Introduction to Sexology
“I appreciate you so much Martha! This course was fantastic in it’s depth and range of topics. You treat so many difficulty/sensitive topics with respect and role model the practice of Sexology with grace and humour. I hope to be as impactful as you are in my work. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all that you have done to create this program. Thank you for being such an incredible voice of allyship. You have set the bar very high and I won’t let you down. The content you focus and teach on is of high value and importance in societies throughout the world. I am excited to embark on this new path, armed with this training to embolden me.” – Chrystal Toop, 25 June 2024 (2nd intake)
“Thank you for giving me a great insight learning and have a different exploration of the whole course.” – Anonymous Student, 25 June 2024 (2nd intake)
“Very comprehensive course. Really appreciate sharing your personal experiences. Thank you so much!!!” – Anonymous Student, 25 June 2024 (2nd intake)
“Martha is a generous in her vulnerability and authenticity as an educator and practitioner. This course is important for any therapist to attend as sex and sexuality are not talked about especially in Asian families and in an Asian context. Sex and sexuality is an important facet of human relationship and functioning which has gone changes and meaning as time evolved. It is especially important for counsellors to learn about such topics more especially in crafting healthy sexual conversations with our young and what they need to know.” – Tonia Goh, 12 Dec 2023 (1st intake)
“Sexuality is one of the major components in life to most of the people, while it is not a comfortable topic to talk about especially in Asia. Similarly, such a professional course is rather rarely conducted in the educational field, even in Singapore. The structure of progamme and coverage of planned topics is relevant and wide, facilitating a better disposition as a professional helper with the added knowledge and skill sets when serving the concerned clienteles.” – Krish Phua, 6 Dec 2023 (1st intake)
“Dr. Martha’s expertise in evidence-based sexuality is exceptional. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn her framework, gaining confidence in supporting clients with both relationship and sexual concerns. This certification provides a holistic overview, combining macro and micro skills, filling a crucial gap in the field. Thank you, Martha, for offering this invaluable certification and for offering to provide continuous support.” – Sharinder Kaur, 16 Nov 2023 (1st intake)
“A taboo topic which has rooms for more attention and awareness. Sexual health is as important as physical and mental health. A holistic approach and wellness to life.” – Shaza Teo, 16 Nov 2023 (1st intake)
“Great info and education for all mental health professions.” – Eve, 11 Aug 2023 (1st intake)

National Ballet of China’s A Dream of Red Mansions in Singapore
2026-03-12 - 2026-03-15 | Esplanade, 1 Esplanade Drive, Singapore
JUST LIVE proudly presents A Dream of Red Mansions, performed by the internationally acclaimed National Ballet of China, making its highly anticipated Singapore premiere in March 2026. As part of the National Ballet of China’s Asia tour, this celebrated two-act ballet transforms Cao Xueqin’s literary masterpiece into a breathtaking stage experience, fusing classical ballet technique with the poetic nuances of Chinese cultural aesthetics.
The 2-hour performance follows the romance of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, set against the rise and decline of the Jia family. As the ballet unfolds, Jia Baoyu drifts into a dreamlike realm where the souls of flowers, childhood companions, and echoes of past lives weave through an ethereal landscape. Playful innocence shimmers alongside the bittersweet ache of first love and parting, while each movement, costume, and play of light shapes a living reverie — a world both luminous and poetic, hauntingly beautiful and unforgettable.
Drawing on over six decades of artistic mastery, the National Ballet of China interprets Cao Xueqin’s novel with subtlety and depth. Every gesture, tableau, and musical phrase reflects the company’s distinctive blend of Western classical technique and Chinese artistic heritage, evoking the story’s romance, longing, and ephemeral beauty for audiences.

At the heart of this production is a visionary creative team led by Executive Director and Producer Feng Ying and General Choreographer Tong Ruirui, supported by Scriptwriter Feng Li, Stage Designer Liu Xinglin, Costume Designer Yang Donglin, Lighting Designer Liu Zhao, and Composer Ye Xiaogang, whose evocative score highlights the romance, longing, and ethereal beauty of Jia Baoyu’s journey. Their combined artistry translates the novel’s intricate emotions into an immersive performance, where movement, visuals, and music converge to capture the essence of A Dream of Red Mansions.
“The vision to bring A Dream of Red Mansions to life through dance has been close to my heart for many years,” said Tong Ruirui, the General Choreographer of A Dream of Red Mansions Ballet. “Through this ballet, we invite audiences to step into Jia Baoyu’s dream: a space where love, memory, and imagination intertwine. Every gesture reflects the emotional currents of this extraordinary story. It is our hope that audiences will leave with a deep sense of connection to the beauty, longing, and timelessness of these characters’ lives,” he continued.
Bringing Tong Ruirui’s vision to the stage, JUST LIVE envelops the performance in world-class lighting, set, and stage design. “We are thrilled to bring the National Ballet of China to Singapore,” said Alain Brochu, Marketing Director of JUST LIVE. “JUST LIVE’s vision has always been to create unforgettable live experiences, and this collaboration allows us to showcase the exquisite artistry of one of the world’s premier ballet companies while immersing audiences in the poetic, dreamlike world of the Rong Mansion,” he added.
Experience a performance where every visual, every note, and every breath of movement evokes the essence of A Dream of Red Mansions, reflecting on love, destiny, and the fleeting nature of life itself.

Synopsis of A Dream of Red Mansions
In A Dream of Red Mansions, audiences follow Jia Baoyu on a journey through a dreamlike realm where past lives, childhood companions, and the souls of flowers intermingle. Against the backdrop of the grand Rong Mansion, Jia Baoyu’s childhood unfolds alongside Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai, as innocence, first love, and the fleeting joys of youth are tenderly explored. Playful moments in the Grand View Garden coexist with the melancholy of parting and the quiet awareness of life’s impermanence, creating a poetic tapestry of memory, love, and longing.
As the story progresses, Jia Baoyu faces familial pressure, personal loss, and the complications of romance, culminating in a dramatic confrontation between desire and duty. From birthday celebrations to tragic revelations, he navigates the tensions of love and societal expectations, ultimately retreating into a solitary, reflective world. In the epilogue, the ethereal vision of the past lingers as Jia Baoyu bids farewell to the intertwined fates around him, leaving audiences with a haunting meditation on love, destiny, and the ephemeral beauty of life.

ACUVUE RALLIES 2026: Singapore’s First In-Mall Pickleball Competition Lands at Plaza Singapura
2026-04-06 - 2026-04-12 | Plaza Singapura, 68 Orchard Road, 238839, Singapore
Pickleball is having a moment — and now, it’s moving right into the heart of the city. This April, ACUVUE RALLIES 2026 brings Singapore’s first large-scale in-mall pickleball competition to Plaza Singapura, transforming the atrium into a vibrant sporting arena.
Running from 6 to 12 April 2026, the event introduces a fresh, social format to the sport, blending competition with community engagement, lifestyle experiences and family-friendly activities.
A Social Take on Competitive Pickleball
Unlike traditional tournaments that focus on individual rankings, ACUVUE RALLIES 2026 emphasises teamwork and inclusivity.
Participants will compete in two categories:

Corporate Division (company teams)
Kampong Kaki Community Division (neighbourhood teams)

Matches follow a Dreambreaker-style format, where every player contributes points towards the team’s overall score — making the experience more engaging and collaborative for everyone involved.
Watch Live Matches in the Heart of Orchard
While earlier rounds take place at Singapore Expo, the highlight matches — including the Quarter Finals — will be held at Plaza Singapura’s main atrium.
Visitors can expect:

Live pickleball matches in a central mall setting
A celebrity exhibition match featuring local personalities
Showcase matches by top Singapore pickleball players

Quarter Final schedule:

11 April: Kampong Kaki Community Division
12 April: Corporate Division

More Than Just a Competition
Even if you’re not competing, there’s plenty to experience throughout the week.
From 6 to 10 April, visitors can enjoy:

Mini pickleball games open to the public
Interactive brand activations
DIY craft stations (including pickleball keychains)
Family-friendly court activities

There are also daily goodie bags worth over $50 up for grabs, available while stocks last — a smart incentive to drive footfall and participation.

A Lifestyle Event Beyond Sport
The event coincides with Plaza Singapura’s “Style On Point” Spring/Summer campaign, bringing together fashion, lifestyle and sport in one space.
Expect:

Brand showcases from activewear and lifestyle labels
On-court workshops
Shopping rewards, including bonus STAR$®

This positioning leans more towards a lifestyle and community experience rather than a purely competitive sporting event — which is likely what will draw in a broader, non-athlete audience.

Step into the colourful world of Daisy Marc Jacobs Murakami
Fans of fragrance, art-inspired design and playful immersive experiences can explore the Daisy Marc Jacobs Murakami pop-up Singapore, happening from 15 to 19 April 2026 at 265 Beach Road.
The limited-time activation celebrates a creative collaboration between Marc Jacobs and Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami, bringing together the iconic Daisy fragrance universe with Murakami’s recognisable floral visual language through an interactive multi-sensory retail experience.
Visitors can discover four limited-edition Eau de Parfum fragrances presented in vibrant colourways inspired by the Daisy fragrance family.

Explore four themed experiential zones
The pop-up is designed as a colour-coded journey where visitors move through different interactive spaces inspired by each fragrance variation.
At the Pink Zone, guests can take part in a fragrance personality quiz to discover which scent best matches their character.
The Yellow Zone features a tea-time experience alongside a fragrance bottle painting activity available with purchase during selected sessions.
In the Blue Zone, visitors can take photos at a themed photobooth and try their luck at a claw machine activity.
Meanwhile, the Green Zone offers a blind box wall experience available with qualifying purchases.
Together, these installations transform fragrance discovery into a creative and playful exploration rather than a traditional retail experience.

Discover limited-edition Daisy Murakami fragrances
The collection includes four Eau de Parfum interpretations inspired by classic Daisy scents:

Daisy Murakami Yellow with strawberry, raspberry and cedarwood notes
Daisy Murakami Pink featuring coconut, white peony and praline
Daisy Murakami Green with banana, jasmine and vanilla
Daisy Murakami Blue combining pear, rose and musk

Each fragrance bottle incorporates Murakami’s signature floral motifs and bright colour palette as part of the collaboration’s visual identity.

Exclusive gifts with purchase available at the pop-up
Visitors can also shop the full Daisy Murakami fragrance collection on-site, with special gift sets available while stocks last.
With a minimum spend of $180, shoppers receive a four-piece gift set including a Daisy mini fragrance, body lotion, umbrella and charm pouch.

Income Eco Run 2026
2026-04-19 04:30 - 11:00 | The Bayfront Event Space, 12A Bayfront Ave, Singapore, 018970, Singapore
A community run built around zero-waste living returns this April
Income Eco Run 2026 returns on 19 April 2026 at Bayfront Event Space, continuing its focus on encouraging climate-positive habits through a family-friendly running event centred on sustainability.
Now in its latest edition, the run invites individuals, families and even pets to take part in distances suited to different fitness levels while supporting environmental awareness through practical everyday actions.
Held under the theme “How Far Will You Go for Zero Waste?”, the event combines physical activity with community participation and eco-education initiatives designed to make sustainable living more accessible.
New distances for children and pets
This year introduces expanded participation categories to make the event more inclusive across age groups and lifestyles.
Adults can take part in:

21.1KM Half Marathon
15KM run
10KM run
5KM run
3KM run

Children aged 4 to 9 years old can join the 700M Kids Dash, while those aged 10 to 12 years old can participate in a 1.2KM youth run.
Pet owners can also sign up with their cats or dogs for either a 700M or 1.2KM Pets Category run, allowing families to participate together in a shared sustainability-focused experience.
Supporting climate action through every kilometre completed
As part of its environmental commitment, the event will contribute $1 for every kilometre clocked towards a green cause supporting sustainability education and outreach initiatives.
Previous editions have supported programmes designed to introduce students and educators to eco-friendly practices and environmental awareness through experiential learning.
Zero-waste practices continue across the event experience
Income Eco Run 2026 continues to strengthen its sustainability framework through a range of practical zero-waste measures implemented before, during and after race day.
These include:

compostable plastic-free hydration cups at water points
reduced-size run bibs to minimise paper usage
encouragement for participants to reuse existing running shirts or wear orange tees
composting of organic waste generated during the event
digital race medals instead of physical medals
upcycled materials used for children’s medals
carbon offsetting linked to event logistics and participant travel estimates

Together, these initiatives aim to demonstrate how large-scale community events can reduce environmental impact while encouraging more conscious lifestyle habits.
Sustainability learning journeys for young participants
Following the run, children can sign up for specially designed Eco Experience learning journeys created in collaboration with sustainability partners.
These sessions introduce young participants to topics such as:

e-waste recycling processes
composting food and paper waste
identifying eco-labels while grocery shopping
understanding circular economy practices

The sessions are offered as parent-child activities to support early exposure to environmental awareness through hands-on learning.

Optional sustainability-designed event tee
Participants who wish to purchase an event tee can opt for a commemorative design created by local illustrator Tammy Chew of @teechewpaper, using recycled materials derived from plastic bottles.
The shirt is intentionally positioned as an optional add-on rather than standard race entitlement, reinforcing the event’s emphasis on reducing unnecessary merchandise waste.

Scaredy Kat Presents
2026-05-23 15:00 - 2026-05-31 17:00 | Gateway Theatre, 3615 Jalan Bukit Merah, Singapore, 159461, Singapore
A Youth Theatre Story About Anxiety, Courage and Creativity
Gateway Arts’ latest youth theatre production Scaredy Kat Presents arrives in Singapore this May with a multimedia-driven performance that explores how young people experience fear, friendship and self-doubt. Directed by award-winning theatre-maker Yvan Karlsson and written by playwright Janine Sobeck Knighton, the production blends live performance with stop-motion animation and puppetry to bring the emotional world of its young protagonist to life.
The story follows Kathryn, a girl who has lived with anxiety since childhood. She finds comfort in creating stop-motion films inside her room, building a miniature world where she can safely express emotions she struggles to articulate in real life. When a new classmate enters her carefully controlled space, Kathryn must decide whether she is ready to step beyond fear and embrace change.
Multimedia Storytelling Designed for Young Audiences
This production marks Gateway Arts’ first theatre project to integrate live visual feeds and stop-motion filmmaking into its storytelling. A specially created stop-motion sequence featuring handcrafted puppets offers insight into Kathryn’s inner emotional landscape, reflecting themes of insecurity, loneliness and courage.
Alongside the animated elements, larger-scale puppetry appears within the live performance itself, creating a layered theatrical experience that communicates feelings visually rather than relying purely on dialogue.
The result is a performance designed to resonate with young audiences navigating uncertainty while also helping parents and educators better understand how children process anxiety and self-confidence.

Supporting Conversations About Mental Wellness
Each performance will be followed by a facilitated post-show discussion led by TOUCH Counselling & Psychological Services. These sessions provide audiences with opportunities to reflect on themes such as social anxiety, peer pressure and emotional resilience, while offering practical perspectives from mental health professionals.
Through storytelling and guided reflection, Scaredy Kat Presents aims to create a shared space for families, educators and young people to talk more openly about emotional wellbeing.
Who Should Watch This Performance
Recommended primarily for audiences aged 10 to 14, the production is also suitable for parents, educators and anyone interested in stories about growing up, friendship and overcoming fear. The show runs for approximately 75 minutes with no intermission.

Earthopia Fest 2026
2026-05-29 10:00 - 2026-05-31 22:00 | Fort Canning Green, 51 Canning Rise, Singapore, 179872, Singapore
As conversations around sustainability continue to grow in Singapore, Earthopia Fest 2026 is returning with a more immersive and community-driven experience designed to make climate action feel more accessible, creative and practical for everyday life.
Taking place from 29 to 31 May 2026 at Fort Canning Green, the three-day festival will bring together youth groups, green businesses, artists, wellness practitioners and sustainability advocates for a large-scale public event centred around conscious living, creativity and community engagement.
Organised by City Sprouts, the festival is expected to feature more than 100 content partners and over 5,000 participants across workshops, panel discussions, wellness sessions, performances and interactive installations.
A Sustainability Festival Designed for Everyday Living
Rather than presenting sustainability as something intimidating or expensive, Earthopia Fest 2026 aims to connect greener living with daily habits and lifestyle choices. Visitors can expect activities that explore sustainable fashion, food, wellness, urban farming, conscious consumption and low-waste living in approachable and engaging ways.
The festival programme includes hands-on eco workshops, guided tours, interactive games and community-led experiences that encourage visitors to rethink how sustainability can fit naturally into modern lifestyles.
One of the key highlights is the Earthling Exchange, which will showcase science fair exhibits, volunteer opportunities and climate innovation projects that encourage visitors to take action beyond the festival grounds.
Fashion and circular living will also play a major role through Circular Styles, a dedicated thrift and sustainable fashion zone exploring style, identity and consumption through a more environmentally conscious lens.
Wellness, Climate Conversations and Creative Expression
Beyond sustainability education, Earthopia Fest 2026 will also place strong emphasis on wellness and emotional resilience. Visitors can participate in gentle yoga, yin yoga, sound bowl healing and nature-inspired movement sessions throughout the festival.
Panel discussions curated with ecosystem partners and the Inter-University Environmental Coalition (IUEC) Singapore will cover topics such as climate pollution, urban heat resilience and nature-based solutions. The programme will also include conversations around climate anxiety, reflecting growing concerns about environmental stress and emotional wellbeing among younger generations.
The event will additionally feature a variety of live music performances, film screenings and community acts designed to make the festival feel more like a shared cultural experience rather than a traditional sustainability conference.
Art Installations Made From Waste Materials
Several large-scale art installations created from repurposed materials will also be displayed throughout the festival grounds.
Among them is Our Current Creatures, featuring floating jellyfish-inspired forms made from discarded plastic materials, as well as E-Fossil: A Warning From Our Time, an installation imagining what future generations may uncover from today’s e-waste and industrial consumption.
Other installations include SOAR, an upcycled bird sculpture made from discarded milk bottles, and Disposable Planet, a large Earth-inspired artwork constructed from colourful fabric scraps to spotlight circular fashion and textile waste.

2026-06-13 08:00 - 2026-06-14 17:00 | Marina Barrage
Great Green Run 2026 Returns to Marina Barrage with Sustainable Race Experiences and Green Bazaar
The Great Green Run 2026 Singapore returns for its third edition this June, bringing together fitness, sustainability and community participation in a race experience designed to encourage environmental responsibility alongside healthy living.
Organised by Modellscape and TRI-FACTOR, the event continues to position itself as more than a typical running event. Instead, it aims to inspire participants to adopt greener lifestyle habits while engaging in activities that support climate awareness and social impact.
This year’s edition is part of Singapore’s wider Go Green 2026 initiative, reinforcing the run’s alignment with national sustainability goals and community-driven environmental action.
A Run Designed Around Sustainability
Participants can choose from three race categories — a 10km run, 5km run and an 800m parent-child dash — making the event accessible to runners of different ages and experience levels.
In line with its sustainability theme, finishers will receive plantable medals, encouraging runners to continue their environmental contribution even after race day.
The event also introduces The Hive, a new interactive activity inspired by the run’s bee mascot. Designed as an educational engagement space, it highlights biodiversity awareness and the importance of pollinators through hands-on experiences.
Green Bazaar Returns with Two Days of Eco-Friendly Shopping
Beyond the race itself, visitors can explore the Green Bazaar, a sustainability-focused marketplace taking place across two days. Featuring more than 60 stalls, the bazaar offers a mix of pre-loved fashion, accessories, handcrafted goods and food vendors, creating a lively community platform centred around conscious consumption.
The marketplace complements the run’s broader goal of encouraging environmentally responsible lifestyle choices beyond the running route.
Supporting Climate Action Through Community Participation
The Great Green Run continues to bring together runners, sustainability advocates and organisations with a shared goal of building a greener future. The event also supports Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 and contributes to broader global sustainability objectives through community engagement initiatives.
In addition, small and medium-sized enterprises can benefit from a sustainability initiative supported by the Singapore Manufacturing Federation, with up to 50 SMEs eligible to receive complimentary carbon footprint reports as part of the programme.

Running from 10 to 19 July 2026, the festival blends fitness, recovery, creativity and live entertainment into a multi-day programme designed for participants of different ages and experience levels.

A Wellness Programme Designed for All Levels
Across the festival period, more than 70 wellness sessions will be available, covering movement, mindfulness and creative engagement. These include yoga classes, functional fitness sessions, breathwork workshops and guided recovery experiences designed for both beginners and regular practitioners.
The daytime programme will be led by internationally recognised fitness personalities including Joe Wicks, Chontel Duncan and Emi Wong, bringing a global perspective to the local wellness scene through accessible, community-focused workouts.

What words from childhood do we carry into adulthood?
Why Hurt Children Hurt Children is an immersive installation by EveryChild.SG that invites the public to reflect on the often-unseen impact of emotional harm in childhood and how these experiences can shape future relationships and parenting.
The installation forms part of the organisation’s efforts to champion healthier childhoods by encouraging conversations around positive parenting, emotional wellbeing and child development.

Through a series of thoughtfully designed spaces including a preparation zone, an original short film, and a quiet decompression area, the installation encourages visitors to pause, reflect and consider how greater awareness and compassion can help break cycles of intergenerational emotional harm.
The installation is free and suitable for parents, caregivers, educators, youth workers and anyone interested in child wellbeing.

CITRUS fest 2026: Kacang Puteh, Care-Oke? Brings Arts and Wellbeing Conversations to Singapore
2026-08-21 - 2026-08-30 | 42 Waterloo Street
Conversations about burnout, wellbeing and sustainable creative work will take centre stage at CITRUS fest 2026: Kacang Puteh, Care-Oke?, a 10-day multidisciplinary festival taking place from 21 to 30 August 2026 in Singapore.
Held in conjunction with Singapore Night Festival, the festival is organised by ground-up collective CITRUS practices and commissioned by the National Arts Council’s Arts Resource Hub. This year’s edition brings together more than 50 arts workers across 20 programmes that explore how care can become an everyday part of creative practice rather than an afterthought.
Visitors can look forward to a mix of workshops, conversations, participatory installations, screenings and communal gatherings designed to offer a behind-the-scenes look at the realities of working in Singapore’s arts scene. Rather than focusing solely on finished performances, the programmes highlight the relationships, collaboration and support systems that make artistic work possible.
Among the featured programmes is Tonight, we are a village, a participatory installation by The Artists Village that recreates the former S-11 coffee shop outside the Old National Library, once a familiar meeting place for artists. The installation invites visitors to reflect on how shared spaces help foster creativity and community.
Other highlights include No Compromises Needed: Crafting Work with Care, which examines how theatre practitioners can navigate creative disagreements and workplace dynamics, and Turning the ‘P-Age’: Dreams on Accessibility, a work-in-progress puppet theatre presentation exploring accessibility for audiences of different generations.
Film enthusiasts can also attend How to Smell Spirits?, where filmmakers Daniel Hui and Nishok discuss caring for themselves and their teams while working on emotionally demanding productions.
Food and community also play an important role throughout the festival. The opening gathering, PONDOK: i want water, but the jar can’t hold, combines regional-inspired dishes with stories collected from arts workers about comfort, survival and care. The festival concludes with Stone Soup Party, where rescued ingredients are transformed into a communal meal followed by karaoke, celebrating collective care through shared experiences.
Admission to CITRUS fest 2026 is free, although selected programmes require advance registration. Full programme details and registration information are available on the festival’s official website.
