Music entertainment in Singapore

  1. A

    Singapore Symphony Orchestra

    The 1800-seater state-of-the-art concert hall at the Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay is home to this respected orchestra, which also graces the Victoria Theatre & Concert Hall. It plays at least once weekly; check the website for details and book in advance. Half-price student and senior (60-plus) discounts are available; kids under six years old are unceremoniously banned.

    Liquid Room

    Less liquid, more gunmetal, this intimate club's industrial vibe and top DJs set the scene for serious dancing. Inside there's progressive house, tech-house and trance. Toilets are rare as pills - you might find yourself squirming on the spot regardless of the music.

    RAV

    Unrelentingly red with disco balls aplenty, RAV is Circular Rd's stand-out club, pumping out everything from acid jazz to Motown to under-30s. Big-name local DJ Illusion is a regular; gals are regular recipients of free-flow 'housepours'.

    Brix

    If you make it past the goons at the door, you can spend the night lurching between the whisky bar (single malt heaven), wine bar (namesake brickwork and impressive wine list) and music room (bands, R&B/disco/soul DJs, and dancing).

  5. E

    Dragonfly

    Hugely popular Cantopop and Mandopop club, with live bands (featuring regulation sexily-clad girls and spiky-haired boys) and a curious PVC pipe ceiling design. Expect to be the only foreigner in here.

    Fluid

    The deep, shady embrace of Fluid somehow seems more solid, but there's plenty of fluid in the beer taps. DJs blow the cobwebs out of the sound system on weekends, and there's a pool table upstairs.
