Ten years in, Wicked Wallop is revving things up with its biggest celebration yet. The homegrown custom motorcycle event is marking the milestone with an all-new festival.
Making its debut on Sunday, July 19, Wicked Wallop Drop transforms Timbre+ One North into a playground for motorcycle lovers, live music fans, foodies, creatives and even families. Running from 10am to 11pm, the debut event promises a little bit of everything: over 50 custom motorcycles, eight live acts from across Southeast Asia, a lifestyle marketplace, food and beverage village, community activities, and plenty of opportunities to meet the people on the bikes.
While custom motorcycles remain at the heart of Wicked Wallop, the new festival is pushing its definition. Throughout the day, visitors can check out meticulously built custom bikes, watch the Custom Motorcycle Nationals judging by expert evaluators, meet the builders behind the creations, browse independent fashion, art and lifestyle brands, tuck into food from the festival village, explore brand activations and collaborations, and take part in community activities.
Live music kicks off from 1pm with a carefully curated lineup by independent music platform Neonpulse. The festival brings together eight acts from Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, spanning a wide range of genres.
Representing Singapore are all-female alt-rock outfit Taledrops, electronic shoegaze and darkwave newcomers Spectre-6, grunge-gaze favourites Phantom Haze, rising noise-pop trio Gnaw and melodic pop-punk/skate-punk band KrankyDoodle. Joining them are Indonesia's Sunlotus, the Yogyakarta four-piece known for its heavy shoegaze and alternative rock sound, and Malaysia's Heavëner, a Klang Valley quartet serving up hazy dream-pop and shoegaze.
Tickets are $18, are SG Culture Pass eligible, and include access to over 50 custom motorcycle showcases, eight live performances, the lifestyle marketplace, food and beverage village, community activities and the festival grounds.
