1. Experience the World of Daisy Murakami
Marc Jacobs Fragrances invites guests to step into the vibrant world of the Daisy Murakami collection with an immersive pop-up at 265 Beach Road from 15 to 19 April, 11AM to 8PM daily.
Playful, whimsical and bold, the collaboration brings together Daisy’s signature charm with the surreal, colourful universe of Takashi Murakami. Celebrating his long-standing partnership with Marc Jacobs, the limited-edition collection reimagines floral icons with a vibrant, artistic twist.
The pop-up unfolds across colour-coded zones, where guests can discover their fragrance personality, enjoy tea-time treats and bottle painting, capture moments at a photobooth, and explore a blind box wall. Alongside the experience, visitors can shop the full collection and exclusive bundles, with curated gift sets available at different spending tiers.
2. Hunt for serious home deals at Audio House’s 37th anniversary sale
Audio House is marking its 37th anniversary with a sale designed to appeal to both practical shoppers and deal hunters. Packed with limited-time perks and storewide promotions, the event stands out as one of the season’s more compelling retail highlights.
One of the most eye-catching offers is the S$370 eCashback giveaway for members whose phone numbers include both 3 and 7, with no minimum spend required. It’s a simple but highly attractive perk—especially for those who qualify—making it well worth a quick visit.
Beyond this, shoppers can enjoy a 10% storewide discount, along with 37% eCashback for every S$370 spent, encouraging bigger-ticket purchases or bundled buys. The promotion is particularly relevant for those looking to upgrade home essentials, with additional category discounts on items such as air conditioners, refrigerators, washers, dryers, and selected sofas and mattresses.
Whether you’re planning a major home upgrade or simply browsing for deals, this is one of those rare shopping events where even everyday purchases feel like a special occasion.
Audio House is located at 23 Ubi Road 4, Audio House Building, Singapore 408620.
3. Step into a sound playground at JBL’s immersive Funan Pop-up
If you want something interactive, central and easy to squeeze into the weekend, JBL’s “Live Your Sound” pop-up at Funan gives you a reason to linger rather than just pass through.
Running from 15 to 19 April 2026 at the Level 1 Atrium, the activation is built around five themed zones, each pairing a lifestyle scenario with a different audio category. It is a pop-up with enough structure to feel engaging, but still casual enough that you can drop in without committing half a day.
The setup ranges from a studio-style zone for music play to a gaming zone, a café-inspired work zone for testing the new LIVE headphones, an outdoor-themed speaker area, and a styling bar focused on JBL’s Open Ear series. Even if you are not shopping seriously, it is a fun browse for tech lovers, gamers, music fans and anyone curious about what audio brands are doing when they try to create an actual experience instead of just a product shelf. It feels lively, current and easy to recommend for a weekend mall stop with more energy than usual.
Funan, Level 1 Atrium, 107 North Bridge Road, Singapore 179105.
4. Make Your Mall Visit Meaningful at Marina Square’s Earth Day Campaign
If you want a weekend outing that feels a little lighter on guilt and a bit more family-friendly, Marina Square’s “Be an Ally to the Earth” campaign adds a purpose to the usual shopping trip. Running through 10 May 2026, the month-long activation brings together sustainability-themed rewards, hands-on activities and a retail corner featuring eco-conscious brands.
One of the better options for families is the Elmer’s Earth Swirl Slime Workshop on 18 April 2026, priced at S$30 per child and including a free Fibre Mug. It gives children something tactile and playful to do while sneaking in a bit of environmental messaging. There is also a Blind Box Eco Bag redemption with a minimum spend of $80, which adds a small collectible thrill for shoppers. This is the kind of weekend stop that works well when you want an easy indoor outing that still feels current and thoughtful.
Marina Square is located at 6 Raffles Boulevard, Singapore 039594.
5. Spend the Day by the Water Browsing Independent Labels at Island Atelier
If your ideal weekend involves discovering brands before everyone else does, Island Atelier deserves a spot on your list. Returning to W Singapore – Sentosa Cove on 17 and 18 April 2026, the event brings together over 40 independent designers and lifestyle brands in a relaxed coastal setting that feels refreshingly different from the usual mall circuit. It is retail, but with a slower rhythm and a more curated mood.
Saturday is the more accessible day for most visitors, with free public entry from 9am to 6pm and a lively mix of fashion, jewellery, childrenswear, homeware, and family-friendly activities. Expect crafts and face painting for children, alongside a dedicated Sale Salon featuring archive pieces, samples, and end-of-line collections.
Even if you are not planning to shop heavily, it is the kind of event that makes for an easy, enjoyable browse—especially for those who appreciate independent design and a more thoughtful retail experience. It feels social, breezy, and distinctly weekend-coded.
W Singapore – Sentosa Cove is located at 21 Ocean Way, Singapore 098374.
6. Enjoy a Feast of Flavours at Greenhouse with Songkran Weekend Buffet Dinner
For a weekend plan that feels like a mini-retreat, Greenhouse at Dusit Thani Laguna Singapore is a compelling choice. Surrounded by lush greenery and overlooking the golf course, the setting feels calm, spacious, and a world away from the usual city dining circuit.
The Seafood Spectacular Buffet Dinner, available on Friday and Saturday evenings, is the main highlight. Prices start from S$82++ for adults on Fridays and S$92++ on Saturdays, while children dine at S$41++. Expect premium seafood selections such as poached lobster tails and wok-fried green mussels with Thai smoked chilli paste, alongside rotating live stations on Saturdays that add variety to the spread.
Whether for families, couples, or casual gatherings, it’s an easy pick for those who enjoy shellfish and a long, unhurried meal in a relaxed, resort-style setting.
Greenhouse, Dusit Thani Laguna Singapore is located at 11 Laguna Golf Green, Singapore 488047.
7. Make Your Fast Food Run More Entertaining with Guzman Y Gomez’s Sorn Collaboration
Not every weekend plan needs to be elaborate. Sometimes the fun is in trying something limited edition, especially when it folds music, fandom and food into one casual stop. Guzman y Gomez is currently running its first-ever collaboration with Thai K-pop artist Sorn, and fans can order her favourite customised meal through the GYG app until 20 April for S$18.90.
The set includes a Spicy Regular Burrito Bowl with Double Grilled Chicken, Regular Chipotle Seasoned Fries with Chipotle Mayo, and a drink choice of Iced Lemon Tea or Jarritos Mango. Even if you are not following the campaign closely, the more lasting appeal is GYG’s Double Protein menu option, which lets you mix proteins across regular and mini mains for a relatively affordable top-up. It is an easy weekend idea for a low-effort meal stop with a bit more novelty than the average lunch run.
Available at Guzman y Gomez outlets across Singapore.
8. Double your dessert haul with Old Seng Choong’s 1 for 1 Crème Brûlée Tart deal
Old Seng Choong is running a week-long 1-for-1 Crème Brûlée Tart Set promotion, making it an easy excuse for a pastry run.
From now until 19 April 2026, customers who purchase one six-piece set at S$23.40 will receive a second set free, positioning it as one of the most shareable dessert deals available this season.
The crème brûlée tarts are all about contrast and comfort—silky vanilla custard paired with buttery pastry and a lightly caramelised top that delivers a gentle crackle with every bite. It is the kind of treat that works just as well for gatherings as it does for stocking up at home, whether shared after dinner or brought along to a weekend get-together.
The promotion is available online and at selected outlets, including Paragon Shopping Centre and WEAVE at Resorts World Sentosa, making it easy to slot into a casual weekend mall visit.
9. Bao Bao Launches Discovery Box Set
Known for its modern interpretation of Singapore heritage baos, Bao Bao introduces its Discovery Box Set at S$18.90, a curated selection of nine well-loved sweet and savoury creations from its Traditional and Signature ranges.
Each bao is handmade fresh on-site daily, using dough crafted from a 20-year-old natural yeast starter and undergoing a 12 to 14-hour fermentation process. The result is a bun that is exceptionally soft, light, and springy, with a well-balanced texture and flavour in every bite.
The Discovery Box Set brings together both classic and creative interpretations, spanning familiar comfort flavours to more inventive modern fillings. The Traditional Range includes favourites such as Big Pork Bao, Braised Pork Belly Bao, Char Siew Bao, and Vegetable Bao, while the Signature Range features more playful indulgences, including Chilli Crab Bao, Azuki Red Bean Mochi Bao, French Chocolate Lava Bao, Longevity Peach Bao, and Orh Nee Bao.
10. Plan Your Next Vietnam Trip with Vietjet’s Expanded Flight Options
Not every good weekend plan is about what you do today. Sometimes it is about using the weekend to lock in a future escape while deals and availability are still favourable.
VietJet Air has increased capacity ahead of Vietnam’s upcoming holiday peak, adding around 130,000 seats across its network and operating nearly 3,800 flights between 25 April and 5 May 2026. For travellers based in Singapore, this offers greater flexibility to plan a city break, beach getaway, or a longer Vietnam itinerary without being constrained by peak-season demand.
The airline currently operates direct services from Singapore to Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang, and Phu Quoc, with a new Singapore–Nha Trang route set to launch on 1 June 2026.
Bookings can be made via Vietjet’s official website or mobile app.
