Halloween in Singapore: Costumes, Cirque, and Candy Galore

Welcome, globe-trotters and mischief-makers, to Things to Do in Singapore! It’s Friday, October 31st, 2025—Halloween, no less—and this is your pal Oly Bennet, here to fly you straight into Singapore’s sizzling city scene, where the fun is high, the humidity’s real, and everyone’s prepping a costume wilder than their neighbor’s potted plants.

Today’s vibe? Singapore is buzzing with Halloween energy—picture: blue skies, balmy breezes, and a city peppered with pumpkins and LED ghosties. Expect highs of 31°C, and don’t be surprised if you catch a Pikachu cosplaying as Dracula at your local MRT stop. The air is thick with anticipation, the kind you get before a Lionel Messi penalty—will he score, or will a Minion zombie snatch the ball?

Now, let’s talk highlights! First up, at Suntec Singapore Convention & Exhibition Centre, it’s The Tech Show 2025, with raging discounts, free vouchers, and a Campus Game Fest packed with live esports for every joystick warrior. Meanwhile, over at Tanjong Pagar Distripark, the Singapore Art Book Fair 2025 is in full swing, luring print lovers with a hypnotic blend of rare zines, bookmaking workshops, and enough creative energy to power a Formula 1 car around Marina Bay.

Music fans—Baybeats 2025, Singapore’s largest free alternative music festival, is taking over the Esplanade with 60 live acts from everywhere, plus a Festival Village for merch and crafty workshops—think “create your own album cover with recycled stuff” (wonder if anyone’s used old homework). For families and those seeking adrenaline-fueled frights, Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights isn’t just the talk of the town, it’s the official headquarters of screams, jump scares, and haunted houses themed after Stranger Things and legendary Asian spirits.

The nightlife scene? Absolutely bonkers tonight! At Cé La Vi, London’s outrageous Cirque Le Soir lands with jaw-dropping circus acts and a view that’ll have you swooning harder than a lovesick otter. Down at Zouk, “Hansel & Gretel” Halloween madness is on—with international DJs, enchanted rooms, candy houses, and a cash prize costume contest—while Marquee is embracing cyberpunk chaos with “Halloweekend: GLITCH.” Costumes get seriously creative: if your outfit takes longer to design than your Airbnb itinerary, you’re in the spirit.

Big news for culture vultures: the Peranakan Museum just opened “Peacock Power,” a technicolor celebration of all things dazzling and symbolic in art, running till August next year. Meanwhile, foodies, your wallets are in danger—new ramen joints are popping up faster than you can say “extra chili, please.” For public transit warriors, expect the usual reliable MRT service—just mind the rush hour goblins (and possibly literal goblins tonight).

If you’re asking what absolutely not to miss, make time to roam Sentosa Cove’s Halloween Mystery with free entry, laser tag, and VR battles—top-tier fun for families and anyone who likes their scares with a side of tech wizardry. For something uniquely Singaporean, swing by a local estate like Woodgrove, where trick-or-treating is a legendary community affair—costumed kids, friendly neighbors, spookified houses, and maybe the realest Halloween spirit you’ll find all night. For a breather, the Supertree Grove in Gardens by the Bay is currently hosting the Sunflower Surprise—where you can snap flower selfies under a glowing futuristic forest.

Fun fact to flex at parties: Singaporeans are so serious about Halloween that Woodgrove’s estate turns into candy central, with homeowners importing buckets of treats year after year—some locals claim it’s harder to run out of Kit Kats here on Halloween than to find air-conditioning at Orchard Road.

Looking ahead, tomorrow kicks off even more madness with the ITMA Asia + CITME mega-tradeshow at Singapore EXPO and the last blast of spooky fun at Haw Par Villa’s legendary haunted trails—if your heart (and your vocal cords) survived tonight. Stay tuned with me, Oly Bennet, and discover more offbeat adventures with a Singaporean twist.
