Top 5 things to do in Singapore this week: 21st – 27th April 2014

In this week’s just opened we have something for the foodies as Savour brings back some of the food magic to restaurants across Singapore, a barrel of laughs at the Magners International Comedy Festival, a dynamite gig from Ms Dynamite, free movies under the stars thanks to DBS Movies by The Bay and Tiong Bahru playing host to music and spoken word performers in Musicity. Don’t miss our pick of top events to catch this week in Singapore:

Keep the foodie love alive with Savour: The Restaurants

If you loved Savour and are looking to recapture some of that foodie magic, you’ll be pleased to hear about Savour: The Restaurants, a spin off of the main event which will give you a green card to chow down on some favourites from the festivals as participating restaurants like Forlino, Ola Cocina, Saint Pierre, & Sons, Spathe, Stellar and many more, roll out exclusive menus at $99 for 2 pax featuring their Savour signatures plus lots of other yums. If that’s not a reason to keep up the eating, we don’t know what is!

Savour: The Restaurants is taking place from 21st – 30th April at participating restaurants across Singapore. For more information including restaurants, menus and bookings see the Savour website here.

Laugh your pants off at Magners International Comedy Festival

This week, the biggest and brightest local, regional and international comedy acts can be found holding court at Boat Quay with 34 comedians clocking up 131 shows at 10 venues over 4 nights for a laugh inducing festival which will include free live street entertainment as you hop (or perhaps later stumble) from bar to bar for a rib-tickling bar crawl packed with hilarity.

The Magners International Comedy Festival is taking place from 23rd – 26th April at various locations Boat Quay. For more information including line up see the festival website here. For ticketing information see SISITC here.

Get street with Ms Dynamite Live in SG

Time to bounce as the UK’s critically acclaimed and multi-award winning urban sista and veteran of the dance scene takes over Home Club for what is bound to be an immensely explosive gig that will leave you buzzin’. If you have no idea who or what we’re taking about, get it together and check out some of her flava at her You Tube channel here.

Ms Dynamite will be playing on 23rd April at Home Club, 20 Upper Circular Road, The Riverwalk B1-01/06, Singapore, 058416. For more information and ticketing see Eventbrite here.

Watch free movies under the stars at DBS Movies By The Bay

This freebie open air movie event is back again, this time giving you a chance to catch Man of Steel (25 April) and The Dark Knight Rises (26 April) under the stars along the Marina Bay waterfront. So grab your buddies, pack up your picnics, chow down on some popcorn and candyfloss and feel smug at the lack of annoying ticket price.

DBS Movies By The Bay is taking place on 25th & 26 April at Marina Bay (next to the Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands). For more information see the Facebook event page here.

Groove to the Musicity in Tiong Bahru

Music and spoken word come together in this event celebrating Singapore’s music and urban design.  Showcasing local musicians and spoken word poets who will perform in selected locations in Tiong Bahru Estate giving a very different take on our favourite hipster enclave, along with fringe activities which will be peppered around the hood waiting to be discovered.

Musicity is taking place on 25th April – 10th May at various locations around Tiong Bahru. For more information see the the Musicity website here.
