The Healthy Living Festival North West is set to transform the Singapore Turf Club into a hub of fitness and fun from 30 May to 1 June. Organised by the North West Community Development Council (CDC), the event aims to commemorate SG60 with a vibrant sports carnival that includes a variety of lifestyle and wellness activities. With an expected turnout of 10,000 residents, the festival seeks to foster community bonds and promote holistic wellness for all ages.
The festival will be hosted by Alex Yam, Mayor of the North West District, and will feature special guests such as Ong Ye Kung, Minister for Health, and other Grassroots Advisers. The event is free and open to the public, offering a diverse range of activities across more than 10 curated zones.
Participants can enjoy high-intensity workouts like Kpop Fitness and Zumba, or explore mindfulness activities in the ESports & Wellness Zone. For those seeking a more relaxed experience, the festival offers live music, outdoor movie screenings, and a unique Sunset Yoga session led by instructor Jimin Choi.
The festival is part of the SG60 Healthier Together Movement, which has already seen residents collectively achieve 60,000km through various sports. Lih Ming Construction has pledged $60,000 to support this initiative, further encouraging community participation.
Ritu Rishi, 47, a member of the North West Running Club, exemplifies the festival’s spirit. Her journey from a novice runner to a half-marathon enthusiast highlights the community’s supportive environment. The festival is open to all, inviting attendees to join the North West Healthy Living Club and continue their wellness journey.
