PARTY
International, big name music producers Yeti Out and Nosaj Thing will be making appearances for the debut of No Standing Only Dancing, presented by event organisers Collective Minds and Kampong Boogie.

PERFORMANCE
Arguably the most well-known dance company locally, the Singapore Dance Theatre will be putting up yet another dreamy and sophisticated dance performance, at Masterpiece in Motion 2019.

THEATRE
Back by popular demand, mark your calendars for some mid-August cultural fun from local theatre group How Drama. The production of Fat Kids Are Harder To Kidnap X is mainly inspired by current affairs and trending topics, so this re-staging of their 10th anniversary show will definitely bring up issues such as the HDB rulings, Oxley saga, crispy rendang and more. While the cast will attempt to perform 31 plays within the hour, the audience will get to decide the order. Extra points for the interactive factor. Aug 16-18

MARKET
Meet up with your Carousell dealers—sans the embarrassing MRT gantry waiting game—at Carouselland 2019, to be held at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre. Themed “Small Dreams, Big Possibilities”, the virtual marketplace will once again take physical form and entice with an extensive list of over 300 vendors manning booths offering various knick-knacks in honour of everyday aspirations.
