Singapore’s reputation as a tourist hub would hardly be complete without a respectable nightlife scene – and the city rises suitably to the occasion. Lines of waterfront bars boasting a varied selection of exotic cuisine, clubs livened by famous music personalities and trendy dancing venues all transforms the Lion City into a vibrant kaleidoscope drawing thousands of international night owls.

The three quays, Clarke Quay, Boat Quay and Robertson Quay, are major draws for pub crawlers with their scenic waterfront views. The renovated warehouses along these strips now play host to a selection of upscale restaurants and trendy bars, each with a unique ambience and price range to cater to all crowds, be it corporate executives or a more mature, sedate clientele. The ones lining Orchard Road and atop Emerald Hill are also well worth a visit.

Night entertainment in the city is diverse and varied. Live entertainment is among the most popular form of recreation for the city night-owls; accordingly, many clubs and bars feature internationally famous DJs and live band performances. Clarke Quay is also famous for its hip and happening club scene, led by legends such as the Zirca Mega Club. The elite of the city with an ear for classical jazz congregate at Harry’s@Boat Quay, while the Crazy Elephant is a more informal venue for lovers of R&B and Zouk is the place to go to seek out the big name DJs of the West.

From the thumping, youthful jive of Mohammed Sultan Road and the classical music fests amongst the fairytale lights of the CHJIMES plaza, the nightlife in Singapore sparkles in many hued facets – an enticing array of sights and sensations waiting for your exploration.
