With the 24-hour PSI in the unhealthy range across much of Singapore on Saturday morning, this is a weekend for plans with a roof. Four picks run on Saturday (24 October) and Sunday (25 October), from a live orchestra under a Wong Kar Wai film to a Halloween escape room in a Woodlands mall. One of them, Halloween Horror Nights, is partly outdoors, and we flag where.
In The Mood For Love in Concert, Sands Theatre
Wong Kar Wai’s 2000 film screens in full HD while a symphony orchestra plays Shigeru Umebayashi’s score live, in sync with the picture. Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung play two neighbours who discover their spouses are having an affair. Singapore conductor Joshua Tan leads the orchestra.
- Saturday: 2pm and 8pm
- Sunday: 1pm and 6.30pm
- Cantonese with English surtitles, 110 minutes, no intermission
- Tickets from S$48 (D Reserve), up to S$158 for VIP, before booking fee, with dynamic pricing
The show is rated General, with no admission for children under seven. Marina Bay Sands warns that the production may use strobe lighting, fog or haze effects, worth knowing for anyone with a respiratory condition. Doors open 60 minutes before each show, and latecomers wait for a suitable break.
Halloween Horror Nights 14, Universal Studios Singapore
Saturday 24 October is a peak night for HHN14, which runs from 7.30pm to 12.30am. Standard admission is S$68 on non-peak nights and S$78 on peak nights, and tickets must be bought in advance. The four haunted houses are Karang Guni: The Cursed Collection, Singapore’s Most Haunted: ON AIR, Chatterbox Charlie’s Vaudeville Horrors and Made in Hell: XL Robotics.
Haze note: the haunted houses are indoors, but the two scare zones, the three live shows and the queues are out in the park after dark. Resorts World Sentosa does not recommend the event for children under 13, and costume masks are not allowed.
Halloween Scaretacular, Causeway Point
The Glow-in-the-Dark Escape Room in the Level 1 Atrium runs to Sunday, 12pm to 9pm. Passes cost S$8 at the Customer Service Counter on Level 2, or are free with S$50 spent since 25 September, capped at two redemptions per FRx member per day. On both days, a free potion-making workshop with Families for Life runs from 10am to 12pm in the same atrium, first come, first served, and the mall mascot Dino walks the mall from 12pm to 3pm.
Trick-or-Treat Family Fun, National Gallery Singapore
Children aged three to 12 make a paper mâché bucket with ArtBeatz, then follow a clue trail through the DBS Singapore Gallery collecting treats. Sessions run at 10.30am, 1pm and 3.30pm on both days, and a parent-and-child bundle costs S$68 online.
KUN at the Indoor Stadium: no resale tickets
KUN’s The Deadman tour plays the Singapore Indoor Stadium at 7pm on both nights. The Saturday show sold out soon after sales opened on 4 September, 8world reported. The Singapore Police Force has warned that Ticketmaster tickets cannot be transferred or resold, and that fans found using resale tickets will be turned away with no refund. Offers on Telegram, Carousell or Xiaohongshu that promise a transfer to your Ticketmaster account fit the scam pattern the police describe.
