Singapore is set to welcome 2026 with the launch of Singland Festival 2026, the nation’s first-ever large-scale indoor New Year celebration, taking place from 31 December 2025 to 3 January 2026 at Marina Bay Sands. The festival, coinciding with Singapore’s 60th anniversary of independence, promises a blend of international talent, cultural showcases, and sustainability initiatives.
K-pop legend Rain will headline the New Year’s Eve Celebration Show, marking the start of four nights of world-class performances. Known for his high-energy shows and iconic choreography, Rain’s participation underscores the festival’s commitment to delivering a unique music experience. “Singland Festival is more than a concert series — it’s a celebration of culture, music, and community,” said Dave Poh, Executive Director of Season Culture, the festival’s organiser.
The festival will also feature a Mega-Sing-Along, where massive LED displays will engage the audience, and various cultural showcases, including art installations and interactive countdown clocks. In a nod to sustainability, $1 from every ticket sold will support tree-planting efforts.
Tickets for Rain’s 90-minute show will range from $198 to $328, with pre-sale details to be announced soon. The festival aims to position Singapore as a premier New Year destination, with more international headliners and activities to be revealed in September.
