15 things to do in Singapore at night that don’t involve going to the club

Who says dance party music only belongs in the club? Bust your bowling moves at this hip joint located in the heart of town. The bowling alley comes complete with dazzling disco lights, groovy tunes, delicious bites and lots of booze for you to enjoy through the night. This hidden gem in 313 Somerset is also open till 1am everyday, so it’s perfect if you’re looking for something to do after catching an evening movie screening over at Cathay Cineleisure.

Every night, Singapore’s skies sparkle, not so much with stars, but with lasers and LEDs. Music and choreographed fountains dance along by Marina Bay Sands.

Immerse yourself in a symphony of dancing fountain jets, vivid visual projections, and advanced lasers with the light show starting nightly from 8pm, and the water show at 9pm.

With more than 500 board games to choose from, it’s a good thing Mind Cafe closes as late as 2am.

Pay by the hour, and be sure to get some food and drinks from their menu to keep you refreshed as you play.

The Projector screens classics and indie films in the evening and it’s perfect if you prefer to go for something a little more different than your usual movie screenings in town. Located at places like Golden Mile Tower and Riverside Point,  it’s got all the vibes the alternative activity-seeker will love.

We’re not being rude – we literally mean fly a kite.

Get a LED night kite from Kite Culture and head to Marina Barrage where the night breeze makes it perfect for this activity.

Also, no more squinting your eyes at your kite with the sun glaring at you!

Hungry? Satisfy your hunger pangs at some of your favourite hawker stalls in Singapore that are open way into the wee hours of the night.

Don’t fear judgment – it’s quite a common Singaporean pastime to head out scavenging for food when the moon’s high in the sky.

If you’re bored, you can shop around Mustafa shopping centre that’s open around the clock.

Offering six floors of bargains that also house a travel agency, rooftop restaurant and supermarket, the place is a nest egg of discount shopping.

You’re sure to be entertained shopping all night long!

If you can’t sleep and fancy some chill time, try reeling in some prawns at Hai Bin Prawning.

Located at Punggol, this prawning joint is open 24/7. The prawns here are huge, and there are barbecue pits (that’s included in the hourly fee) for you to roast your victorious win.

Equipment and baits are also included in the hourly fee. Beer, along with red or white wine, is also available.

There’s nothing like the cool breeze and peaceful roads you can experience when it comes to cycling at night. Besides the lack of sweat from the sweltering heat our country is famous for, the roads are practically empty late midnight, which makes it perfect for cycling.

Grab a few friends and head to one of the many bike trails in Singapore to cycle your night away.

Love football but hate the humid, stifling heat that comes with all things outdoors in Singapore?

Here’s a solution: play football indoors, at midnight. Singapore’s first indoor football stadium, The Cage is open 24/7 for football fans.

With 6 identical five-a-side pitches as well as ventilation fans, comfort areas and a music system for you to play the songs you like, you can spend all night here scoring goals. Make sure to book for a slot before heading down!

There’s nothing new about drinking or shopping, but what about the two combined?

You can do so at the popular Don Don Donki by Don Quijote. A one-stop hyper-mart for all your Japanese needs, the store is open 24 hours and has everything you possibly need – from Japanese snacks to clothes to phone cases and more.

Located right inside some of the Don Don Donki outlets in Singapore is Drink Drunk Donki, the bar section of the store serving authentic Japanese beers and sakes.

If you can’t sleep, the best way to work up a sweat and tire yourself out is with a trip to the gym.

Not a fan of overcrowded gyms? Hate waiting for your turn to use thesquat rack? We feel you. 

Head to any of these 24-hour gyms in Singapore like Anytime Fitness, where you can work out in relative peace and quiet in the middle of the night.

When was the last time you hit the spa and had a really relaxing, pampering session?

Take a break from the bustle of the city and recharge at these 24-hour spas.

Purchase a spa pass at Spa Nes and walk into a relaxation paradise.

g.spa is another spa oasis that is also 24 hours, with invigorating spa treatments and saunas that ensure you fully relax.

If overexcited chortles, annoying phone notifications and loud whispering annoy you often at the cinema, why not catch a midnight flick instead?

The cinema will be quiet, and you can have a wider selection of seats to choose from. Just be sure to not choose a horror movie if you get creeped out easily.

Cinemas not your thing? Here are alternative places where you can watch your favourite movies!

Love singing? No matter if you’re good at it or not, belt your heart out at a 24-hour karaoke joint.

Grab your fellow night owl friends and have a good time at any of these karaoke bars that are open till late night: Teo Heng KTV Studio, Manekineko, Tang Music Box, and good ol’ Party World.
