Things to Do During F1 Singapore 2026: Best Events for Singapore Grand Prix Weekend

PR1X: District Red at The Nanson

The Nanson turns its private rooms over to the public for one night on 10 October with PR1X: District Red, a reimagining of the club as a fictional neon-lit Asian city built around race weekend energy rather than the race itself. The night unfolds across three spaces. Rouge Temple is the main room, with Hong Kong’s Willer, retro-futurist duo HE.R Soundsystem and Singapore’s Sivanesh on the decks. Dragon Den goes deeper with Paris-born, Hong Kong-based Belloy and local artist Watch Her Bern, while Saloon leans into tribal rhythms and underground house courtesy of Dodgy Yamamoto. Doors open at 10pm, and the dress code calls for East meets East styling, think silk and velvet. Members get priority access to tickets, though the club is opening its doors to non-members for the night, a rare chance to see the space without a membership.

Promotion details: Members from S$88; non-members from S$108. Members get priority ticket access.

temper. Wine Room & Lounge

Race week gets its own tasting menu at Temper, where the wine room and cocktail lounge above Duxton Hill are running a ten-day programme called Feel the Speed from 2 to 11 October. It opens with Grand Prix: Grand Cru on 2 and 3 October, three tiered tasting flights of rare Champagne and Grand Cru wines curated by Master Sommelier Roberto Durán. From 5 to 6 October, Ignition brings five chefs together for a five-course dinner tracing five F1 circuit cities, from Jeddah to Barcelona, with optional wine pairings and vinyl sets by local DJs. The mood shifts on 8 October for Overdrive, a late-night set from DJ PRAV and violinist SPADEZ, before the whole programme closes on 10 October with Apex, marking London DJ Taylah Elaine’s Singapore debut alongside local hip-hop artist Ollie’Des. Diners throughout the run can also try three race-week cocktails and enter a prediction contest for prizes.

Promotion details: From S$138 for wine flights; S$128 for the Ignition dinner; ticketed access for late-night sets.
Address: 83 Neil Road, #01-07, Mondrian Singapore Duxton, Singapore 089813

Republic After-Party at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore

Race weekend gets a proper night out at Republic, where the hotel’s 1960s-inspired cocktail bar turns into an after-party from 9pm across all three days, from 9 to 11 October. Expect free-flow cocktails, draught beer, champagne, and red and white wine, backed by live buffet stations serving smashed beef burgers, pizzas, and chocolate pudding with a choice of gelato. Live music carries through the night, making it a solid base for the evening whether you’re starting here or dropping in after dinner elsewhere in Marina Bay. Doors run from 9pm to 2am each night, with pre-payment required to lock in a spot. Groups after a bit more indulgence can add on a table for four with an extra bottle of liquor thrown in, useful if the plan is to properly camp out for race week.

Promotion details: From S$198 per person; S$500 adds a table for four with an extra bottle of liquor of your choice.

Sago Festival of Speed at Duxton Hill

Duxton Hill turns into a street party for the second edition of Sago Festival of Speed on Saturday 10 October, running from 1pm to 6pm and free to attend. Built around the idea of speed in all forms, the afternoon brings together classic cars parked up for photos, custom motorcycles and bicycles, radio-controlled vehicles, an F1 racing simulator with full seat and wheel, street food, cocktails and beers, live music, and stalls from local makers and independent communities. STASH.SG runs pop-up barbering for anyone wanting a trim before the big weekend, and there’s a kids’ corner to keep younger visitors occupied. Entry is free, though a handful of ticketed packages let visitors add extras like drinks at Sago House, time on the racing simulator, or a mini pub crawl across Sago House, Puffy Bois and Cat Bite Club. The festival is part of Grand Prix Season Singapore 2026.

Promotion details: Free entry; optional packages from S$29 include drinks, racing simulator time, or a Duxton Hill pub crawl.

RASA Presents Lil’ Louis

RASA brings Chicago house pioneer Lil’ Louis to Singapore on 9 October, the night before the Grand Prix weekend proper begins. Louis, born Marvin Burns, has been DJing since the mid-1970s and produced French Kiss, the 1989 track that topped dance charts worldwide and is still cited as one of house music’s defining records. His sets tend to run deep and narrative rather than peak-time, moving through soul, house and slower, more experimental territory over the course of a night. The show runs from 10pm to 3am inside RASA Space’s Floor room, the venue’s dedicated house and electronic space in Republic Plaza, built with input from the Berlin studio behind Berghain. It is one of the more historically minded bookings on the race week calendar, aimed at listeners who want a night built around a genuinely formative figure in dance music rather than a current festival headliner.

Promotion details: Standard tickets available at S$45 while tickets at the door are priced at S$48.
Address: RASA Space, 9 Raffles Place, #02-01/02, Republic Plaza Tower 1, Singapore 048619

CÉ LA VI Singapore

CÉ LA VI turns its rooftop above Marina Bay into three nights of parties for Race Week, running from 8 to 11 October, 57 storeys above the circuit. The Kick-Off Party on 8 October opens proceedings from 11pm, with the Club Lounge running until 4am. Saturday 10 October brings South African artists Caiiro and Da Capo for a five-hour back-to-back set of Afro House and Deep Tech, while the closing night on 11 October, Lights Out, hands the decks to UK dance music veteran Carl Cox, supported by Kim Turnbull and Jeremy Healy. Across all three nights, the draw is as much the view as the line-up, with the Marina Bay Street Circuit laid out beneath the dance floor. Entry is tiered by time slot and event, with premium pours or Champagne included depending on the package, and an early bird rate for the Carl Cox closing night.

Promotion details: From S$58 nett; Carl Cox night early bird from S$300 nett. Smart dress, 18+ after 10pm.
Address: Level 57, Marina Bay Sands SkyPark, 1 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore 018971

SUSHISAMBA Singapore

52 floors above the CBD, SUSHISAMBA leans into race season from 2 to 11 October with a limited run of race-themed cocktails, Red Bull mocktails, and a maki roll for the occasion. The lineup includes Lights Out (bourbon, honey, passionfruit), Lift & Coast (rum, ginger beer, blue curaçao) and Pole Position (Campari, amaretto, prosecco), all priced at S$25, sitting alongside a Red Bull-based Energy Twist and Sugarfree Twist. The main event lands on 10 and 11 October, when the flagship Copacabana Brunch returns as Race to SAMBA, running from 12pm to 3pm with live DJ and saxophonist sets, SAMBA performances and skyline views over robata, sushi and seviche stations. Dishes span Australian Tomahawk Steak and Spatchcock Chicken through to Shrimp Tempura, with an F1 Strawberry Tart and Checkered Flag Cake to close. Brunch runs S$160++ per person with food, free-flow cocktails and non-alcoholic drinks, with additional free-flow packages available at extra cost.

Promotion details: Cocktails from S$16; Copacabana Brunch from S$160++ per person, with free-flow packages from S$40++ more.
Address: 168 Robinson Road, #52-01, Capital Tower, Singapore 068912

Race Week HQ at Mandala Club

Mandala Club turns its Bukit Pasoh home into Race Week HQ from 6 to 11 October, a six-day programme built around the people and culture surrounding motorsport rather than the race itself. The week opens with Grid Sessions, a series of closed-door conversations featuring figures like Haas F1 Team Principal Ayao Komatsu and F1 driver Ollie Bearman, running from 6 to 9 October. Things shift into nightlife on Friday 9 October with Boogie Pasoh: Electric Eden, an all-female DJ line-up featuring MISS LIL, HBN and TASHASAN from 8pm. The weekend closes with two editions of the club’s Big Bad Brunch Club on 10 and 11 October, from 12pm to 3pm, with seafood towers, caviar and carved wagyu served tableside. Most of Race Week HQ, including the brunch and Friday night party, is open only to members and their guests rather than the general public.

Promotion details: Members and guests of members only; brunch includes optional two-hour free-flow and champagne upgrades.

AFTER 2049 at Marina Bay Sands SkyPark

Once a year, TOKEN2049, the world’s largest digital assets conference, closes with a party on the roof of Marina Bay Sands, and this year it lands right in the middle of Grand Prix weekend. AFTER 2049 takes over the SkyPark Observation Deck on 9 October, with the Formula 1 circuit laid out 57 floors below. German producer Claptone headlines, known for his gold beak mask and residencies at Pacha Ibiza under his own Golden Recordings label, alongside Madrid-based house producer Crusy and returning acts ANONM, Leon, Milam and Mo-Shi. The night runs on Polygon Live’s 360 degree spatial sound rig, the only setup of its kind in South-East Asia this year, sending elements of each track around and above the crowd rather than through a standard stereo system. The Observation Deck closes to the public for the night, reserved solely for the event.

Promotion details: Limited-capacity tickets on sale now, exclusively via Megatix.

ARC Night: Robot Fight at SCAPE

Robots throw down at SCAPE on 7 October, when ARC League brings its Robot Fight Night to Singapore for the first time. The format is unusual, human pilots control humanoid robots through real-time, full-body motion mirroring, so every punch and dodge in the arena is driven by a person moving in sync with their machine. The evening runs from 6pm, opening with a mingling session before a live performance at 7pm, the main event at 7.30pm, and a chance to try on the robot rigs and meet the team from 8.30pm. It is pitched as one of the more unusual ways to spend a night during Race Week, landing two days before the Grand Prix itself and leaning on the same week’s energy without featuring any actual motorsport. ARC has run similar nights in New York and Chicago, and this marks its first stop in Singapore.

Promotion details: Standard (USD$20) and VIP passes (USD$399) available via Luma.
Address: SCAPE Singapore, 2 Orchard Link, Singapore 237978

AICON 2026

Not everything on race week needs an engine. AICON, a two-day AI festival at *SCAPE on 8 and 9 October, is built around doing rather than watching: visitors sit down with the tools and make something, whether that is a working web app in a Gemini vibe coding workshop or a short film in an AI filmmaking session with Singapore Polytechnic. The main stage runs forums on AI and jobs, governance and the creator economy, with a youth Ask Me Anything panel on the second day. A humanoid robot showcase runs at the Ground Theatre across both days, and the first evening closes with the WonderClip x GenTube AI Film Festival awards. Now in its second year, the festival has shifted from talks towards participation, which makes it an easy weekday option for anyone in town who wants something away from the circuit crowds.

Promotion details: Two-day passes listed from S$48 (General) and S$98 (VIP); workshops need separate registration.
Address: *SCAPE, 2 Orchard Link, Singapore 237978

And if you’re curious how last year’s edition compared, our 2025 roundup is still up. However you spend it, Grand Prix weekend remains one of the few times a year Singapore properly leans into the noise, and it’s worth being out in it.
