On 4 April 2022, authorities announced that all nightlife businesses, including clubs and karaoke establishments, will be allowed to fully reopen from 19 April 2022 onwards.
This means we can finally party, sashay away on the podium (do they still have those?) at Zouk and wolf down maggi goreng at the 24/7 prata joint in our clubbing attire.
If you’re looking forward to raving like us, here’s all you need to know about the best clubs and karaoke studios in Singapore, the estimated costs of partying (including a supervised ART test), and hacks on how you can save money on your night out.
As this announcement is pretty recent, some establishments have yet to announce their opening and prices. Do keep a lookout on their respective websites and social media platforms for more information.
Supervised COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test (ART) test required before clubbing
Once nightlife resumes, partygoers will have to take a mandatory supervised Antigen Rapid Test (ART) before entering a nightclub or any establishment that offers dancing as an activity.
The supervised ART test will cost between $12 to $15 and will only be valid for 24 hours.
The cheapest and most convenient way to do it is with Minimed, which provides remote ART test at only S$12 (test kit not included).
You will receive your digitally authenticated ART certificate within 30 minutes, and it will be accessible via Healthhub and TraceTogether.
