Passion@KampongGlam is a lively series of fun weekend activities from 5 October 2018 – 17 March 2019
Start October
2018…...The historical precinct of Kampong Glam will soon be pulsating with an
exciting series of fun and entertaining activities for both tourists and local
residents from 5 October 2018 to 17 March 2019.
Deeply
rooted in the colonial history of Singapore, Kampong Glam serves not only as a
flourishing centre of Malay and Islamic culture but a thriving tourist hub
filled with an incredible mix of inspiring personalities, interesting shops,
vibrant cafes/restaurants and a buzzing ambience. Passion@KampongGlam is a
weekend series of experiences dedicated to bringing out the best of this
enclave through a carefully curated programme of food, music and cultural
activities designed to appeal to both international tourists and local
residents in a six-month period.
Developed
with the support of the Singapore Tourism Board’s Experience Step-Up Fund, the
series reflects the historical and cultural aspects of Kampong Glam in an
engaging manner. Riding on the STB’s new ‘Passion Made Possible’ brand, the
series encourages visitors to immerse themselves in the experiences and
integrate with the community.
“Passion@KampongGlam
is more than an expression of the affection and respect for this heritage
enclave. The series pays tribute to this heritage enclave with an enjoyable mix
of activities to appeal to all ages,” explains Benedict Choa, Founder of
Passion@KampongGlam. As the co-founder of Cube Boutique Capsule Hotels, Mr Choa
heads the collaborative group of partners tasked with this mission.
He
adds, “We are passionate about supporting the culture, businesses and
attractions in this precinct. Working with the community leaders and stake
holders ensures that the cultural legacy is carried on in a meaningful way.”
The
activities will take place from a Friday to Sunday from 4-6pm in a six-month
period in the following format with a total of 72 days of experiences on a
specially erected stage in front of the Singapore Visitor Centre on Bussorah
Street:
•

• Saturday – live music
performances
• Sunday – games and cultural activities
The cooking demonstrations will be hosted by prominent

of the Honoree Entrepreneur Award from the Singapore Malay Chamber of Commerce
(SMCCI) and the winner of the Halal Jampacked Food Bank with Jamiyah Singapore,
he has cooked for VIPs and been featured on food programmes on television and
radio. The founder of Kapowww specializing in halal food products, Chef Mel
