If you tuned in to the UEFA Champions League action early this morning, you’d know that Arsenal have secured their spot in the semi-finals, after knocking out last season’s champs Real Madrid in a thrilling clash. The Gunners are on fire, and just when you thought the hype couldn’t get any bigger, here’s the kicker: Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, and co are bringing the heat to Singapore this July. Joining them are Italian giants AC Milan and fellow Premier League side Newcastle United for what’s shaping up to be one of the biggest sporting events in Singapore this year: the Singapore Festival of Football. It all goes down at the iconic National Stadium, with two match days set for July 23 and 27.   Photograph: Singapore Festival of Football   What is the Singapore Festival of Football?

There’s something irresistible about cocktails that flirt with local flavours – and TUX Bar & Lounge is pouring out a whole new reason to sip. Its latest lineup of signature cocktails ($28 each) is a love letter to Singapore – just in time for SG60. The Old Fashioned Nonya is a pandan-infused spin on the whisky classic. It’s like a liquid nonya kueh, with gula melaka notes lingering gently at the end of every sip, making for a pleasant aftertaste.    Photograph: TUX Bar & Lounge at Carlton Hotel Singapore   Then there’s Bandung Unplugged, which defies logic. It looks crystal clear but delivers all the milky, rose-syrupy goodness of the drink your auntie used to make – only this time with vodka. Wondering how it gets that translucent look? Here’s the inside scoop: milk-washing – a clever technique where milk is curdled and strained, leaving behind a silky, clarified drink with all the flavour and none of the cloudiness. For something spicier, the Gin-Ken Chilli Sour is a bold gin tribute to chicken rice, with garlic, chilli padi, ginger and lime. It’s punchy, complex, and definitely one for the adventurous palate. A more citrusy alternative is the Laksa Margarita, which blends tequila with laksa leaf and lemongrass for a tangy, tropical kick.   Photograph: TUX Bar & Lounge at Carlton Hotel Singapore   But if there’s one showstopper we can’t stop talking about, it’s the BTC (aka Boba Tea Cocktail). With rum, black tea, and house-made chewy pearls, it’s a playful finish to y

There’s no season quite like summer in Europe. From June to September, the continent basks in endless sunshine, where temperatures soar to a toasty 30 degrees – ideal for those who love the warmth without Singapore’s humidity. Imagine spending long, lazy days in the Mediterranean, sipping cocktails on a terrace in the French Alps, or strolling through charming cobblestone streets. With the days stretching longer, especially in the north where the sun sets as late as midnight, you’ll have more time to explore, eat, and celebrate under the golden sky. Once you experience it, you’ll understand why Europeans love summertime.   Photograph: Shutterstock   Key events that make summer in Europe unforgettable  If you’re into music, Glastonbury Festival in England and Primavera Sound in Barcelona are bucket list must-haves. For something more eclectic, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is Europe’s largest arts festival, turning the Scottish city into a hub of comedy, theatre, and performances.  Immerse in age-old traditions with the Midsummer Festival in cities like Stockholm and Gothenburg, where locals celebrate the summer solstice with dancing, feasting, and good company. Or if you’re in Spain, the UNESCO-listed La Patum de Berga in Catalonia celebrates Corpus Christi with parades, fireworks, and giant puppets.    Photograph: Emirates Airline   Explore 40 incredible destinations in Europe with Emirates  So, how do you get there?

If you've ever wondered what it's like to tumble down the Rabbit Hole, Wonderland Upside Down by ANDSOFORTH is here to make that fantasy a very trippy reality. And yes, that includes things I never thought I’d willingly eat like toothpaste, mouthwash, and cat food. But more on that later.   Photograph: ANDSOFORTH   In celebration of its 10th anniversary this year, the award-winning immersive theatrical dining company has created an experience that’s part dinner party, part fever dream, and entirely unlike your childhood memories of Alice in Wonderland.

The five-course dinner was just as theatrical – one moment I was slurping a rich Chinese-style soup, the next, digging into a fragrant Indian chicken korma. Then came the curveballs: salmon-based cat food, cream cheese toothpaste with crackers, and a
