Singapore’s capital is gateway city in the one of the smallest but most dynamic countries in the world. It is a key global financial hub and a popular tourism destination. Singapore has a transient population of around two million, in addition to a fixed population of close to three and half million. The little island has thus become a melting pot of multicultural influences from all around the globe. World class food, drink, shops can all be found in Singapore. Entertainment places that are also top notch: come in the forms of bars, clubs, cinemas and as of 2012, a state of the art facility, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay.
The Esplanade is one of the busiest arts centres in the world with three thousand performances a year in dance, music, theatre and visual arts exhibitions. It is also only a stone’s throw away from Sheraton Towers Singapore, where elegance and luxury await in the heart of the city.
Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay is a not-for profit centre that believes in bringing the joy of the arts to everyone. You can take a tour of the venue and learn about its iconic design, get a behind the scenes look at the grand Concert Hall and Theatre. The Concert Hall is one in five in the world to have acoustic features of its kind. The equipment can be adapted as required whether the performance is orchestral, choral or cultural. Even a rock concert can be rolled out with ease. The outdoor venue makes use of Singapore’s great tropical weather. The expansive location also holds several eateries and fine dining restaurants, along with shops, leisure facilities and more. Visit the website to find out what shows and concerts are on. Tickets can be purchased online, from The Esplanade’s box office or through ticketing service providers.
