Chinese New Year markets are plentiful at this time of year, but Sentosa’s Festive Market puts a tropical, modern spin on them. Usher in the Year of the Fire Horse with a sunset stroll among palm trees at its Gong Xi Gong Xi edition, where traditional festive sweets are offered alongside a curated mix of apparel, artisanal arts and crafts, vinyl records and more. There are over 20 local brands to support and shop from: You can pick up a new perfume, get into leather accessories, grow your jewellery collection, or add some sparkle to your smile with some tooth gems.
For the parents, you’ll wanna bring along the kiddos too, as there are plenty of family-friendly activities to keep them busy, from a bookmark-making workshop and bubble activations to chalk doodling and face painting fun. Complete the evening with some dancing under the moonlight, or at the fortune station with the whole fam, where you can draw your 2026 predictions together from a 24-drawer apothecary chest.
