Friday 23 to Sunday 25 October 2026 puts a travel fair, a Le Creuset sale and an Indian culture fest under one roof at Suntec, while Wong Kar Wai fills the big screen at Marina Bay Sands, Feng Ze plays the Esplanade, and the Deepavali bazaar on Campbell Lane runs every night. Haze is still the weekend’s wild card: at 5am on Thursday the 24-hour PSI ranged from 75 in the north to 114 in the west on NEA readings, and three big outdoor events have already been called off.
