It’s official: Nanyang Technological University<\/a> students are now super cool. The university has collaborated with Adidas Singapore<\/a> to launch The Campus Grind, an exclusive collection featuring illustrations by the NTU Students’ Union. Designs capture the vibrant student life and the school’s strong sporting culture. Besides T-shirts, the collection also includes essentials like caps, backpacks, and shoe bags.<\/p>\n

Curious to see what it looks like? The collection is available at the NTU Gift Shop and NTU U-Shop, which are open to the public. You only gotta make the trek there\u2026 oh boy.<\/p>\n

2. Regina will sing her Song(s) in first-ever headline show<\/h3>\n

Singapore’s pop princess has been going places \u2013 but Regina Song<\/a> will be back in the country to play her first-ever headline show this November! Held on 15 November 2026 at Capitol Theatre, the songstress will perform songs throughout her career, representing the different stages of her life. Tickets are classified into three tiers and will go on presale on 18 August, with early bird sales starting on 19 August till 26 August 2026 at 11pm. (And yes, you can use your SG Culture Pass<\/a> to offset the ticket cost.)<\/p>\n

3. Now’s a good time to learn our national language<\/h3>\n
\"Wisma

Do you know what Singapore’s national language is? If you answered Malay, ding ding ding! 50 points for Gryffindor! Otherwise, you can redeem yourself by participating in Wisma Geylang Serai<\/a>‘s Bulan Bahasa<\/a>. This year’s campaign, Budaya Milik Kita (Culture Belongs to Us), runs from 15 August to 10 October 2026 in support of this year’s theme, Cita. Citra. Cinta.<\/p>\n

The campaign celebrates Malay language, heritage, and the arts through five signature programmes that will take place between August and October. Hopefully, participants will better appreciate Bahasa Melayu and Malay culture through these shared experiences.<\/p>\n

4. Roll up, roll up, tea lovers and their furry friends!<\/h3>\n
\"Chagee's

Only Chagee<\/a> can put forth such a concept and get away with it. Have you visited the Pet Adventure Camp<\/a>? The beloved Chinese tea brand is running Singapore’s first pet-friendly tea truck on Orchard Road. From now till 30 October 2026, Chagee fans can swing by this pop-up to order their favourite drink and browse the exclusive pet-inspired merchandise and limited-time bundles before settling down at the shaded seating area\u2026 all with their four-legged pals by their side (or in their arms).<\/p>\n

Of course, the furkids aren’t forgotten: there’s a corner where they can stay hydrated throughout your visit. Remember to snap loads of fur-tographs at the themed photo spot!<\/p>\n

Throughout the three months, the pop-up will tour other neighbourhoods, so more communities can enjoy the Chagee experience. Yes, you don’t have to jostle with the Orchard Road crowd if you don’t want to! Keep an eye out on its socials for deets on where the Pet Adventure Camp will be next.<\/p>\n

5. Yeah, it’s a party in the<\/del> New Bahru<\/h3>\n
\"New

Hasn’t it been years since New Bahru<\/a> opened its doors? (It’s only two years, but who’s counting\u2026) The creative cluster is (finally) celebrating its completion with an Open House<\/a> on 29 & 30 August 2026. This block party promises to be a doozy, with a mini lawn festival, an art and design exhibition-marketplace, exclusive merchandise, and limited-time community-led experiences all over New Bahru<\/a>. So, don’t forget to mark this on your cals! We just know it’s going to be crowded, so head down early to avoid disappointment.<\/p>\n

6. Design and play come together at this development hub<\/h3>\n
\"Singapore

Singapore Science Park<\/a> has taken a leaf out of Madonna’s playbook, and we’re so here for it. The technology and development hub is bringing back Reinvention, its annual activation supported by the DesignSingapore Council, for a second edition. What can you expect this time? A series of installations, experiences, and activities that highlight how thoughtfully designed spaces can inspire wellness, creativity, and connection. Reinvention: Allplay runs from 11 August to 22 November 2026 \u2013 plenty of time to pop by and rediscover Singapore Science Park.<\/p>\n

Say hello to Chin Mee Chin<\/a>‘s second outlet at Nex! The new location showcases the brand’s evolution, offering new dishes alongside the original menu and modern takes on well-loved classics.<\/p>\n

The kaya cream puff is now reimagined as a kaya custard choux au craquelin ($3 per piece or $10 for a box of four), with a dark chocolate variant if you want a more indulgent dessert. Keep a lookout for new menu additions like the curry potato pie ($3.80) and grilled kaffir lime chicken sandwich ($8.80).<\/p>\n

A fan of the classics through and through? Don’t worry, you can still get your hands on the kaya toast<\/a> sets ($6.50) and familiar favourites like hae bee hiam bun, luncheon meat bun, and otah bun ($2.80 each).<\/p>\n

\"Aidha

Award-winning local charity Aidha<\/a> celebrates its 20th anniversary by launching a new national campaign for migrant domestic workers in Singapore. The Financial Literacy ACCESS Campaign (Advancing Capability through Community, Education & Sustainable Savings) is a three-year initiative that aims to expand access to financial education for migrant domestic workers based here.<\/p>\n

As part of the campaign, two initiatives were designed to support workers at different stages of their financial journey. MoneyStar is a free half-day foundational course for those who just arrived in Singapore, while the Ask Aidha Money Management Helpdesk is where workers can get financial guidance and practical support.<\/p>\n

Aidha will also work with employers, employment agencies, and partners to broaden access to financial education and help more migrant domestic workers build financially secure futures.<\/p>\n

11. Viva la (local) cinema!<\/h3>\n
