The spotlight's back on Singapore's art scene with the return of Singapore Biennale 2025, the city's biggest celebration of contemporary art, running from October 31 for five months. This year's theme, 'Pure Intention', invites all to experience Singapore as a planned city – and the surprising ways that life has bloom and evolved in the gaps.
Expect more 100 works from over 80 artists across the Civic District, Rail Corridor, Orchard road, and the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) at Tanjong Pagar Distripark. Think a field library at Wessex Estate, kinetic installations, reimagined strata mall histories, and poetry by migrant workers – all inviting you to see the city through new eyes.
Outdoor installations are free to explore, while entry to SAM costs $15 for locals and $25 for tourists. There's 20 percent off early bird tickets till October 30, and bonus: you can use your SG Culture Pass credits.
