Five good things to do in Singapore this weekend.
For 31 July to 2 August: pets, folklore in lights, Singapore on the concert stage, two SAM closings and Bukit Merah coffee.
-
Singapore Pet Festival
The Sands Expo fills with pet-care workshops, contests and specialist vendors for cats, dogs and smaller companions. A $6 one-day pass keeps the commitment low for the pet-curious.
