5 Things To Do In Singapore This Week: 17th To 23rd June 2019

This week, it’s all about recharging your social battery. No plans for Friday night? The swanky CÉ LA VI is not allowing anyone to go home early. Or if you prefer something tamer, opt for the theatre that makes for a great romantic date. Foodies are not left out as chefs from some of the World’s Best Restaurants are whipping up drool-worthy treats.

Fête de la Musique Feat. Télépopmusik

There’s no place better than CÉ LA VI if you want panoramic views of Singapore’s skyline. The restaurant and bar has partnered the Embassy of France to offer a slice of the well-known Fête de la Musique with EDM trio Téleépopmusik to Singapore. And the event will be broadcasted so you might just catch yourself on the screen of the Eiffel Tower.

Embrace your French side on 21 June 2019 from 10pm – 4am at CÉ LA VI, 1 Bayfront Avenue Marina Bay Sands, Singapore 018971. Tickets are complimentary, available here, or $28 for cover charge (incl. premium pour). Visit the Facebook page here for more information.

Paris Opera Ballet

For something a little less mainstream this week, be part of the audience when Paris Opera Ballet’s new cohort of dancers perform to tunes by the legendary James Blake. Since the production is an ode to romance, bring along your loved one as you fall in love all over again with Max Richter’s updated Vivaldi’s Four Seasons and Pite’s The Season’s Canon.

Twisted Summer with W Singapore X ClassPass

Say goodbye to the usual gyms and studios by extending your fitness repertoire to meditation – at the tranquil seafront of Sentosa Cove, no less. The day begins with all-things female as “Women Warriors” (sorry guys!) gets you to stretch out by Bianca Pereche, ending with a chill-out session replete with bespoke drinks and food. While luxuriating in the picturesque view of Singapore’s largest outdoor pool, WET, be sure to take home a special tea set by A.Muse Projects. It’s one wellness event not to be missed!
