The Lobby: Hobby Edition

From chess and Beyblade matches to medieval swordsmanship and fingerboarding, SCAPE’s The Lobby: Hobby Edition gives you a chance to get to know and explore some of the most exciting and unique youth hobby communities in Singapore. Whether you’re looking to find someone with a similar niche interest or in need of new ways to pass the time, this gathering could be just for you.

The programme is split into two. At the main stage, you can catch demonstrations from the Yo‑Yo Association of Singapore, Fight Saber SG and Bastion HEMA, who will perform a series of European martial arts combat movements like medieval fencing. Meanwhile, over at the arena, you can take part in the Aliwal Chess Club Tournament, play against other Beyblade enthusiasts, or try your hand at fingerboarding with Coffeetable Fingerboards.

Elsewhere, there are also booths set up by the Live Action Role‑Playing community, Pokémon fans, and other video gaming groups like Smash G. Entry to the event is free, but requires registration.
