i Light Singapore 2025

i Light Singapore (iLSG) kicked off last week and will run until 21 June 2025. Once again, Marina Bay has been transformed into a glowing urban gallery, but the festival also includes installations at South Beach, plus new venues along the Singapore River and Raffles Place.

The 2025 edition is themed “To Gather” and embraces the colour red — a nod to SG60 celebrations. Don’t miss the glow of the 17 original light art installations created by 20 international and local artists that blend art, innovation, and heart.

Design Assembly at CHIMES

Thursday, 12 June might be the most stylish day of the month as Design Assembly highlights serious chic in Singers.

Whether you’re shopping for yourself or scouting for unique presents, this is the kind of event where you arrive for “a quick look-see” and leave with something special. (Be warned!). Doors open from 10am 10pm.

BBQ, Bubbles & Poolside Vibes at Grand Hyatt Singapore

If your weekends need more sizzle (and less kitchen stress), the BBQ Night Sharing Platter at Oasis at the recently refurbed Grand Hyatt Singapore is your new Friday-and-Saturday night fix. Served from 5:30pm–9pm, BBQ Nights at Oasis are casual, cool, and an excellent option for families, groups or friends, or dining a deux.

For S$88++ per person, this alfresco feast delivers a mix of smoky grilled meats, fresh salads, and cheeky little desserts, all served poolside with five-star Hyatt polish. Start with herbed ciabatta and fresh starters like prawn cocktail, spiced tomatoes, and a crisp garden salad, then roll up your sleeves for the main event: a mega platter piled with chicken skewers, pork chorizo, sustainable barramundi, beef, lamb, and black tiger prawns. Yes, all of it. And yes, you’ll want to wear stretchy get-up.

Desserts come in the shape of fruity soft serve, chocolate-drizzled profiteroles, or cinnamon sugar donuts — or do the sensible thing and try them all. Feeling fancy? Add oysters on ice for S$5 a pop.

The package includes free flow soft drinks, but guests can upgrade to the 2.5-hour free-flow drinks package (S$58++) featuring wines from Vasse Felix, Torbreck Shiraz, prosecco, beers, and non-alcoholic options. We say make the weekend truly pop by adding a Moët & Chandon or a Spritz cocktail for a glam touch.
