In the month of our nation’s birthday, we celebrate the things that make us uniquely Singapore. Enjoy music, theatre, poetry and film from all who contribute to making this little red dot home.

Red Dot August is a sectoral programme of SG60, part of the SG60 celebrations from the arts and culture sector.

The bumper music programme includes intergenerational performances by veteran and current musicians, as well as collaborations between Singapore and overseas music artists.

A special showcase of the phases of Singapore music throws the spotlight on our musical journey as a nation and the multicultural sounds that have moved and energised us through the years.

Be enthralled too by poetry readings and screenings of well-loved local films, fleshing out all that is familiar and different about home.


  • Date: 1 – 31 August 2025
  • Venue: Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, 1 Esplanade Drive Singapore 038981
