How we check dates
Every event on this site carries the official source it was checked against, and the date of that check is printed on its page. When an organiser has not published dates for the next edition, we say so: the record is labelled a tentative date, built from the previous edition or tradition, and it is labelled as a tentative date wherever it appears. We use the same approach on Japan What's On, Thailand What's On, Hong Kong Happenings, Taiwan What's On, Philippines What's On, Malaysia What's On, Korea What's On, India What's On, Vietnam What's On, Macau What's On and Macau Deals.

Frequently asked questions
How do you check the dates on this site?
We check each event against its official source before publishing and re-check it on a rolling basis; the latest check date is printed on the event page.
What does “tentative date” mean?
The organiser has not published dates for the next edition yet. The window is built from the previous edition or from tradition, and it is labelled everywhere it appears. It is a planning guide, not a confirmed date: check the official source before booking travel around it.
Can I buy tickets through Singapore Happenings?
We do not sell tickets ourselves. Where an event or attraction can be booked, its page carries a button to the seller. Where a booking link earns us commission, the button says so, and the price you pay is set by the seller and is the same whether or not you use our link. That commission is what keeps this site going: it helps cover the work of checking every date and keeping the calendar up to date, at no extra cost to you.
When is the best time of year to visit Singapore?
Singapore is warm all year, so the calendar decides: January for the arts stack, February for Chinese New Year, August for National Day, and October for the Grand Prix. The drier months are usually February to April; November to January is the wetter monsoon season, with heavy showers that rarely stop an indoor calendar.
When is the Singapore Grand Prix?
The Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix runs at the Marina Bay street circuit, usually in late September or early October. The confirmed dates for the next edition are on the event page, checked against the official source.
What is the newsletter?
The weekly note is one email a week, on Wednesdays: what is on across Singapore over the coming weeks, which tentative dates have just been confirmed, and the festivals worth building a trip around while hotels are still bookable. Subscribers get each edition about a week before it appears in the public archive on this site.
