Eat, drink, play, and dance at Singapore’s coolest laid-back festival, the Garden Beats Festival. Look forward to hours of dancing to adrenaline-pumping beats delivered by a sick DJ line-up. Relax on the grass when you want, or participate in exciting fringe activities on the side. This much-anticipated outdoor affair is back for its second year running, and here’s a rundown of the juicy highlights.
There are 4 fields – Play Fields, Social Fields, Culinary Fields, Electronic Picnic Fields, and the Garden Beats & Strongbow stage. Each field and area represents an opportunity to mingle and have fun with strangers and friends alike.
A dose of child-like fun
The latest hits are great, but so is some old-school fun. You’ve probably envied the free-spiritedness of a child at some point in your adult life. Play Fields lets you uncover your inner child with nostalgic garden games from your childhood.
So relish in the chance to play fight with your friends on the grass and reminisce those memories with your best pals.
Artistic inspiration with new-found friends
Social Fields will feature social art installations that are said to enable you to “chat, flirt, and relax with fellow Gardeners”. Go ahead and test out this claim- you might gain a new best friend while admiring artworks on the fields of Fort Canning Park!
An eclectic DJ lineup & a breezy dance floor
Anticipate a varied lineup and exciting music that will get you grooving on the dance floor, from the deep bass beats by Berlin’s Alle Farben, to the house jams of France’s DJ and producer duo FAUL&WAD, not forgetting groovy tunes by homegrown DJs like Brendon P and Zig Zach, and many more.
The best part? You’ll get to feel the night breeze while dancing all night long at this outdoor affair.
A feast on the grass
Of course, being able to enjoy a delicious meal while playing and partying is one of the perks of this al-fresco music and picnic event. Bring your own food or enjoy the gastronomic delights from Marco Marco, Meat Liquor, Lime House and Selva Foods at the Culinary Fields.
Grab a bite and some ice-cold beer, and you’ll be all set for the party!
Garden Beats Festival 2016 will be held at Fortgate, Fort Canning Park on March 19, from 1pm to 10.30pm. Book your tickets from the Garden Beats Festival website.
