What’s Happening in Singapore This October 2025 (And Why You Shouldn’t Miss It!)

October in Singapore isn’t just another month, it’s a full-on celebration. From bass-thumping music festivals and streets that sparkle for the Festival of Lights to moonlit strolls under glowing Supertrees, this city comes alive in ways you won’t want to miss. Stay with us and you’re right where the fun is (plus a comfy bed and breakfast on the house).

Mid-Autumn Festival at Chinatown

September 7th - October 20th

Watch Chinatown come alive under a sea of glowing lanterns, lively performances, and the irresistible scent of mooncakes in the air. Celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival up close, then treat yourself to a night of rest at our hotel just around the corner.

Deepavali Istana Open House

Late-October

Ever wondered what it’s like inside the President’s house? Now’s your chance. The Istana swings open its gates for Deepavali with award-winning flautists blending Indian and Chinese music, multicultural performances, and hands-on activities like henna and candle-making that’ll have you joining in the festivities in Singapore’s most iconic home.

Baybeats Music Festival

October 30th - November 2nd

Bring your energy and catch local bands, regional stars, and international acts at Singapore’s very own late-night jam session under the city skyline. After the last chord fades, retreat to our peaceful, centrally located hotel for a good night’s rest before your next adventure.

Garden Rhapsody – Tales of the Moon

September 22nd - October 12th

When the Supertrees light up, so will your Instagram feed. Twirling lights in sync with enchanting soundtracks, lantern-lit paths, and local bites at Satay by the Bay transform your evening into a magical, foodie-filled night.

Little India Festival of Lights

October 18th - October 23rd

If “main character energy” were a festival, it’d be Deepavali in Little India. Roads covered in glittering LEDs, intricate motifs, and a parade that turns the streets into a carnival of colour, this is one festival that shines brighter than the rest.

Singapore Grand Prix - Formula 1

October 3rd - October 5th

Engines roar, city lights dazzle, and the energy of Singapore reverberates around you. From Clarke Quay’s buzzing nightlife, Marina Bay’s glittering skyline, the action at Marina Bay Street Circuit is just a 10-minute drive away. When the checkered flag waves, trade speed for sheets – lounge in your very own pit stop at Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay with cool air, soft sheets, and zero chaos.
