The second half of 2023 will prove to be quite a musical one, with tours pouring into Singapore from a variety of artists: Lauv, Lewis Capaldi, The Boyz, NMIXX, just to name a few. (And it’s set to get even better next year, with Coldplay and Taylor Swift playing multiple dates here.)
Getting into the groove is Marina Bay Sands which will be launching its inaugural music festival “Where Music Takes Over” from Jul 15 to Aug 2. The festival will feature over 10 concerts and musical performances in a celebration of culture, music and live entertainment. There will also be fringe activities at various venues across the integrated resort over nearly three weeks.
The lineup for this music festival will include global musical icons such as composer and singer-songwriter David Tao (Jul 16), British pop singer Ellie Goulding (Jul 26), Latin singer J Balvin (Jul 28), American rock band The Strokes (Aug 2), Australian R&B singer Rini (Jul 17), and American pop singer and actress Sabrina Carpenter (Jul 27).
British pop rock band The 1975 are performing not one but two days on Jul 18 and 19. (Marina Bay Sands and Live Nation have released more tickets for the concert at Sands Expo & Convention Centre, after both shows were sold out in March. Tickets are available via Ticketmaster and Marina Bay Sands’ website.)
The party doesn’t end there. Stay pumped before at Marquee Singapore, Lavo Italian Restaurant & Rooftop Bar, Bread Street Kitchen and Yardbird Southern Table & Bar. They will present festivalgoers with unique experiences and festival-themed programmes to enjoy after or before the concerts.
