Meet The Rare Hawksbill Turtle, bring your pets to FurKids Fiesta or head over to Boutiques Singapore, this weekend is packed with so many events worth checking out!
1. Meet The Rare Hawksbill Turtle Hatchlings at Singapore Oceanarium
One of Singapore’s rarest new residents has quietly arrived at Singapore Oceanarium, and it may be one of the most meaningful experiences to catch this weekend. Eight critically endangered Hawksbill turtle hatchlings are now on public display at the Horizontal Migration Zone as part of a conservation partnership between Singapore Oceanarium and NParks. Hatched at Small Sister’s Island in October 2025, the turtles are being carefully reared under specialist care before their eventual release back into the wild.
What makes this experience especially moving is how temporary and delicate it feels. Hawksbill turtles face staggering mortality rates in the wild, with only a tiny fraction surviving into adulthood. Visitors will be able to observe the hatchlings while learning about Singapore’s marine biodiversity, satellite tracking efforts and the science behind “headstarting”, a conservation method that allows vulnerable hatchlings to grow stronger before release. The habitat itself has been intentionally designed with tinted privacy screens to reduce human interaction and maintain the turtles’ natural instincts.

Singapore Oceanarium is located at 8 Sentosa Gateway, Singapore 098269.
2. Bring Your Dog To The Biggest Ever FurKids Fiesta At CQ @ Clarke Quay
If your ideal weekend involves iced coffee, riverside walks and a very spoiled dog, then FurKids Fiesta at CQ @ Clarke Quay may be the happiest place to spend your afternoon. Returning as one of Singapore’s largest pet-friendly festivals, the event stretches across two weekends and transforms Clarke Quay into a lively gathering spot for pawrents, rescue organisations and pet lifestyle brands.
This year’s edition includes over 20 curated vendors, scenic river cruises for pets, interactive workshops and the Singapore debut of adidas’ first pet collection. One of the standout moments will be the rescue dog runway showcase choreographed by Daniel Boey, spotlighting adoptable dogs in support of the #AdoptNotShop movement. Even if you do not own a pet, the atmosphere alone makes it worth visiting. Expect a very social crowd, plenty of photo moments and an unusually wholesome energy for Clarke Quay. Entry is free.
FurKids Fiesta will take place at 3 River Valley Road, Singapore 179024.
3. Boutiques Singapore: The Spring Summer Edition 2026 is Happening this Weekend
Boutiques Singapore is set to return to the F1 Pit Building from 15 to 17 May 2026. While long known as a destination for discovering independent brands, this year’s edition feels more expansive, with over 300 brands placing fashion firmly at the centre. Expect a strong showing of fashion and accessory labels, including new names like LIAÜ, SANJE, Goliath, and Days of Ever, alongside homegrown designers and regional favourites.
Beyond fashion, Boutiques 2026 continues to evolve its experience-driven approach. New additions like a creative lounge blending art, workshops, and community, plus a vinyl-led music lounge offering a more immersive listening experience, reflect a shift toward lifestyle and participation rather than pure shopping.
Families will also find more accessible programming, while a refreshed food and beverage offering at the Garage Café turns dining into part of the experience.
Altogether, this year’s edition feels designed as a full day out, where fashion, culture, food, and design all sit within the same rhythm.

4. NikeSKIMS finally lands in Singapore
The activewear launch dominating fashion TikTok has officially landed in Singapore. NikeSKIMS combines Nike’s sports innovation with SKIMS’ sculpting silhouettes, creating pieces that move seamlessly between Pilates studios, airport lounges, and coffee runs without requiring a wardrobe change.
The Summer 2026 collection introduces Studio Stretch, described as the brand’s softest and lightest fabric yet. Designed specifically for yoga and Pilates, the material combines gentle compression with Nike’s Dri FIT technology, creating a smoother, body-contouring fit that feels supportive without being restrictive. Expect fitted bodysuits, flared leggings, cropped jackets and muted neutral tones that feel very aligned with the quiet luxury fitness aesthetic currently dominating social media.
The collection launches from 14 May at Nike Orchard Road and Nike Jewel, with prices expected to start around S$70 for basics and rise for layered pieces and outerwear.

5. Plan A Quick Bangkok Escape at voco Bangkok Surawong
Sometimes the smartest weekend plan is leaving Singapore entirely for 48 hours. voco Bangkok Surawong has introduced a new “Bangkok Easy Escape” package that feels designed for travellers who want a softer, slower version of Bangkok without sacrificing access to the city’s nightlife and food scene.
The three-day, two-night package includes breakfast for two, welcome cocktails, wellness amenities, personalised bathrobes and a late checkout option, alongside playful extras like colouring cards and mascot plushies that make the stay feel intentionally lighthearted rather than overly corporate. Located close to Silom, the hotel places guests near Bangkok’s restaurants, bars and shopping districts while still maintaining a calmer atmosphere than Sukhumvit’s busier stretches.
Prices start from around S$320 for two nights, depending on dates and availability. The promotion runs till 31 July 2026, though bookings require advance payment and limited slots are expected during school holiday periods.

6. Coliwoo Midtown Presents Singapore’s First Sip & Paint Rave
Singapore has had sip-and-paint sessions before, and warehouse parties too. But combining both into one slightly chaotic, highly Instagrammable afternoon feels very 2026.
OUTOFOFFICE at Coliwoo Midtown positions itself as Singapore’s first sip-and-paint rave, bringing together DJs, wine, ice cream, and DIY coaster painting in a format that sounds random on paper but works surprisingly well in reality.
The event features sets by local DJs, including NOLA, alongside Spanish wines from Winessell and artisanal soft serve by Seven Vanilla. Tickets start from S$45++, and include a drink, a premium ice cream scoop with toppings, a DIY painting workshop, and snacks from a live popcorn station.
To top it off, the first 30 guests will receive limited edition Peanuts & Gang blind boxes. What makes this stand out from a typical club night is the daytime setting — it feels less intimidating, more social, and a little nostalgic, like an arts-and-crafts afternoon for adults, just with better music.
Coliwoo Midtown is located at 141 Middle Road, Singapore 188396.
7. Spend Saturday at a Riviera-inspired Champagne Brunch at METT Singapore
If your ideal Saturday involves oysters, Champagne and pretending you are somewhere on the French Riviera rather than in central Singapore, then the new Riviera Champagne Brunch at METT Singapore may become your new favourite social ritual.
Running every Saturday from 12 pm onwards, the experience begins with a Mediterranean brunch spread across L’Amo Bistrò del Mare before evolving into a poolside sundown party with DJs and cocktails at Canning Bar & Lounge. Chef Daniele Sperindio’s menu includes freshly shucked oysters, Canadian lobster, Italian antipasti and charcoal-grilled seafood, alongside roaming bites and live culinary stations that keep the energy moving throughout the afternoon.
The drinks programme is equally ambitious, with free-flow pours including Krug Grande Cuvée, Ruinart Rosé and Boizel Brut Réserve. Prices start from around S$198++ per person.
METT Singapore is located at 42 Cuscaden Road, Singapore 249728.
8. Try The New Pastries at Tiong Bahru Bakery Raffles City
Tiong Bahru Bakery has reopened its Raffles City outlet with a refreshed pastry collection that feels noticeably more refined and dessert-forward than its usual lineup. The new creations lean heavily into floral, nutty and fruit-driven flavours, giving the bakery a slightly more Parisian pâtisserie energy this season.
Standouts include the Peach Oolong Entremet, which layers almond sponge with peach compote and fragrant oolong mousse, and the Bergamot Lavender Tart shaped like a spring daisy with delicate citrus notes running through it. There is also a Black Sesame Choux combining vanilla chantilly with roasted sesame paste and charcoal crumble for something deeper and more savoury leaning. Other additions include a Pistachio Bombe, Matcha Basque Cheesecake and a reimagined Mont Blanc.
Prices range from S$9 to S$16 depending on the pastry.
Tiong Bahru Bakery Raffles City is located at 252 North Bridge Road, #B1-11, Singapore 179103.
9. Wo Wo Dian Celebrates 2nd Anniversary with New Dishes and 50% Off Total Bill
A restaurant with a 137-year-old Sichuan culinary legacy does not usually celebrate with 50 per cent off the total bill, which is exactly why Wo Wo Dian (窝窝店) may end up drawing serious queues this weekend. Located inside Raffles City, the steamed bun specialist is marking its second Singapore anniversary with one of the more generous dining promotions currently happening in town.
Beyond its signature buns, the restaurant is also launching a range of new comfort dishes, including Orange Peel Fish Fillet, Crispy Sweet and Sour Pork, Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp with Tofu and Chilled Soy Braised Beef Slices. Diners spending above S$78++ can also redeem the limited edition “Fu Wo Wo” plush toy, which honestly feels destined to become unexpectedly collectible. There is also a newly launched membership programme offering additional vouchers and birthday perks for regular diners.
The 50% promotion runs from 15 to 18 May 2026.
Wo Wo Dian is located at Raffles City Shopping Centre, #B1-13 to 15, Singapore 179103.
10. Order Twice The McDonald’s Comfort Food For Less via Foodpanda
Not every weekend needs a reservation or a packed itinerary. Sometimes the perfect Friday night is just stretchy pants, Netflix, and twice as much fast food for the same price.
From now till 27 May 2026, McDonald’s is offering exclusive 1-for-1 deals via foodpanda, with promotions across breakfast favourites, burgers, and all-day snacks.
The lineup includes classics like the McSpicy, Filet-O-Fish, Chicken McNuggets, and Breakfast Wrap Chicken Sausage — making it a solid low-effort indulgence for any craving. With delivery fees from around S$2.99, you can easily split a late-night supper with a friend for under S$15.
Think: crispy Hash Browns to kickstart your morning, or 6pc Chicken McNuggets paired with a Filet-O-Fish for an all-day snack fix. The campaign runs islandwide on the app, with selected items rotating weekly — so it’s worth checking in daily if you’re the type who treats McDonald’s drops like seasonal releases.
