Top 5 things to do in Singapore this week: 24th – 30th March 2014

This week we have a Grammy® winning pop sensation and more internationally acclaimed chefs than you can shake a stick at descending on our little red dot, Singapore’s first on-screen music festival and a night of hedonism under the full moon.
