Fort Canning may just be the coolest place to be with a series of events happening there these coming weekends.
First off, Hotel Fort Canning ropes in a bunch of cool artisanal local brands and hawkers for Makan in the Park, which starts today. The weekend affair at Fort Canning Park (not the hotel itself) has hawker dishes like satay, kueh pie tee, laksa and bubur cha cha to sample for free, as well as booths by our fave local brands like GSH Conserves, Citizen Pop, The Hunters’ Kitchenette and more.
Food tasting aside, you can also take part in whiskey appreciation classes by Johnnie Walker and other boozy workshops by Moet Hennessy Diageo. If you’re looking to up that Instagram game of yours, don’t miss the food photography workshop either. The weekend ends with screenings of foodie movies, Ratatouille and Chef.
Then in conjunction with the Singapore Night Festival, the Pinacotheque museum has Your Night @ The Museum. Not only do you get 50% off museum tickets over the two weekends (Aug 21-22 & 28-29), but they’ve roped in their F&B venues like Fort, Myra’s and Balzac Brasserie to dish out treats and cocktails on the patio overlooking the grounds—all while hip DJs are playing, of course. And if you’re feeling particularly cheesy, there’s also a treasure hunt happening on the grounds where you stand a chance to win a sleepover at the museum or a staycation at a fancy hotel. Get your sleeping bags ready.
