In its drive to bolster its reputation as a day-to-night destination, the Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC), on Monday, unveiled the ‘Sentosa Night Mode’. The new feature will comprise a variety of activities from August to October.
“Guests are invited to bask in the island’s vibrant nightlife and beach club scene,” read an official news release from SDC.
Night Mode represents a strategic move to boost Sentosa’s appeal and allure after sunset and diversify its charm beyond the traditional daytime attractions. This initiative introduces a series of new nocturnal experiences, extended operating hours, and exclusive island-wide promotions, creating an exciting and immersive after-dark atmosphere.
Thien Kwee Eng, Chief Executive Officer, Sentosa Development Corporation, said, “The Night Mode initiative aims to diversify Sentosa’s offerings and extend its appeal beyond daylight hours to cater to growing visitor demands for evening entertainment options on Sentosa. With Night Mode, SDC aims to create new opportunities for guests to discover Sentosa anew and to extend the length of stay of guests on Sentosa.”
Night Mode is jam-packed with activities and experiences for visitors of all ages. Boasting 11 themed weekends featuring festive markets, street performances, to movie screenings, each weekend promises daytime fun that cascades seamlessly into the night.
With the recent addition of Sentosa Sensoryscape, a ridge-to-reef landmark connecting visitors from Resorts World Sentosa in the north to Sentosa’s beaches in the south, and to the various Night Mode offerings on the island, they are invited to explore Sensoryscape and let their senses wander.
Spanning 30,000 square metres, Sensoryscape is an oasis blending nature, design, and technology for an immersive, multi-sensorial journey. When night falls, Sensoryscape transforms into a night-time spectacle with ImagiNite, a unique outdoor light art with augmented reality experience that is designed to heighten visitors’ sensory adventure. Sensoryscape is open to the public daily, with ImagiNite starting nightly at 7:50pm.
Sentosa Naturalist Night Adventure & Fort Siloso
Building on its repertoire of unique and engaging island tours, tourists can also delight in night experiences such as Sentosa Naturalist Night Adventure and Fort Siloso Night Experience. These experiences will bring guests along on an unforgettable journey exploring Sentosa’s nocturnal wildlife and the historic Fort Siloso.
Late night performances and activities
On the third weekend of each month, visitors can expect extended operation hours and a variety of promotions at attractions, dining establishments, and retail outlets. The last weekend of August to October will see the transformation of Siloso Beach Walk into a vibrant street party area, featuring themed clubbing events for a memorable night out.
