Bring memories to life and create new ones at the Festival Village @ Esplanade Park.
The heart of the Singapore Arts Festival 2011 is your place to be inspired by the arts. See amazing shows. Meet friends and mingle with performers. Enjoy a drink and a meal under the stars.
Whatever you do, don’t miss curtain call. Opening night of the 2011 Festival kicks off at the Village. We’re staging an incredible production of Ishinha’s When a Gray Taiwanese Cow Stretched. It’s an epic tale of human growth, and follows the migration of people from the South Sea Islands through South East Asia to Taiwan and Japan.
To host such a spectacular show, we’ve custom-made the perfect venue. Hand-made from wood, huge and rustic, it’s the Singapore Arts Festival’s largest-ever outdoor performance theatre. Remember, there’s only space for 450 lucky souls so get your tickets early.
There’s also a whole Festival’s worth of action at the Village, with different things to see and do every day. We’re hosting staged performances, engaging exhibitions and striking installations. And when all that inspires you, you can even create art yourself. There are hands-on workshops, master classes and exclusive Artists salon sessions.
Make sure you stop by the Festival information booth. This one-stop-shop is your ideal place to find out about the Festival, buy tickets to your favourite shows and get your hands on official, limited-edition Festival merchandise.
So don’t miss out on the heart of the Festival. Visit Festival Village @ Esplanade Park for the most memorable art and ambience.
