WELCOME TO SINGAPORE! The prestigious BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore presented by SC Global is just one of the reasons to cheer while you’re in Singapore. Held at the Singapore Sports Hub, this season-ending championship promises to be a real treat for visitors, not least because of all the festivities that are going on across the island concurrently. Deepavali, the Hindu Festival of Lights, will be celebrated in November, but the celebrations start early – soak in the atmosphere along the streets of Little India which are festooned with colourful lights and bustling with street bazaars and cultural performances. Or head to Chinatown where old meets new, with traditional street food stalls and heritage establishments situated alongside hip hangouts and contemporary restaurants, all amid a rich cultural setting. If you’re planning an action-packed day out, you can choose to check out some of our attractions such as River Safari or Adventure Cove Waterpark™ at Resorts World™ Sentosa. Admire world-class masterpieces at the newly opened Singapore Pinacothéque de Paris, or explore the newly-minted UNESCO World Heritage Site Singapore Botanic Gardens, a lush tropical oasis located in the city centre but which feels a world away. There’s also the tranquil Gardens by the Bay with its glassdomed conservatories and stunning Supertree Grove. Or go off the beaten track and seek out Singapore’s most beloved neighbourhood hangouts such as Tiong Bahru, Kampong Glam or Katong. Either way, you’ll get to discover and fall in love with the slew of exciting activities, from world-class art shows and gourmet food festivals to family-friendly entertainment. While you’re enjoying our destination’s cosmopolitan offerings, why not get the wardrobe to match? Both luxury complex Marina Bay Sands® and famed shopping strip Orchard Road have refreshed their retail offerings. The choice is endless – take your pick of big-name exclusives, high-street fashion and local designer finds. What’s more, Singapore turns 50 this year – and you’re invited to join the celebrations.
