Get ready for Singapore’s biggest nocturnal arts celebration! The Singapore Night Festival (SNF) 2025 is back for its 16th edition, running from August 22 to September 6, 2025, across the Bras Basah.Bugis (BBB) precinct.
Presented by HeritageSG, this year’s edition coincides with Singapore’s 60th birthday (SG60) and carries the exciting theme “Island Nights”, spotlighting our nation’s identity as a cultural bridge and island heritage hub. Expect over 80 captivating experiences, from dazzling projection mappings and interactive installations to night markets and innovative art showcases.
Festival-goers can explore beloved Night Lights installations and brand-new initiatives like The Listening Biennial and the debut of ALIGHT: A Southeast Asian Light Network Conference, uniting regional artists and creatives. The festival promises more than visual spectacle—it’s a celebration of stories, spaces, and shared experiences rooted in Singapore’s unique past and present.

Kickstart your festival experience early with the Bras Basah.Bugis National Day Activations (NDAV), happening from August 1 to September 6, 2025. In celebration of Singapore’s 60th birthday, iconic monuments and lesser-known spaces across the BBB precinct will be reimagined with dynamic lighting, digital storytelling, and thematic installations under the theme “Celebrating Our Island.”
