Halloween at Sentosa 2026: Family Activities, Glowcean, Dog Festival & More

Looking for things to do in Sentosa this Halloween? From glowing marine displays to dog-friendly festivities and a playful beach workout, here are the events worth knowing about before October ends.

Halloween in Singapore doesn’t have to mean haunted houses. If you’re heading to Sentosa with children, friends or even your dog, there are several ways to spend the last days of October 2026. Here’s our guide to what’s happening, when it ends, and who each experience might suit.

1. Into the Glowcean at Singapore Oceanarium

Into the Glowcean at Singapore Oceanarium features glowing marine life and neon displays

Until 1 November 2026. Singapore Oceanarium’s seasonal Into the Glowcean programme turns a marine-life outing into something a little more atmospheric with glowing displays, creative activities and special underwater moments.

Keep an eye out for Oceanic Glow, featuring illuminated marine-life sculptures by local glass-neon artist Megan Foo. There is also a Skeleton Dive Feed scheduled for 4pm daily except Mondays and Fridays, subject to the venue programme.

Best for: Families who prefer wonder over fright, and visitors keen on marine life.

See the official event information for activities, tickets and updates.

2. Singapore Dog Festival at Palawan Green

16 October to 1 November 2026. Four-legged family members get their turn at Sentosa’s Singapore Dog Festival, featuring a dog playscape, curated marketplace, live entertainment, food and interactive activities.

Halloween-themed decorations begin from 23 October, with a Halloween Parade on 31 October at 6pm (registration from 5pm), according to Sentosa’s Islander newsletter.

Admission: Free from Monday to Thursday; tickets are required from Friday to Sunday, according to Sentosa’s official event page. Please note that only pet dogs are admitted to the festival, dogs must be kept on leads, and pets are not permitted on the Sentosa Express or beach shuttle.

Best for: Dog owners and pet-loving families.

Check the official event page for current tickets and conditions.

3. Halloween Horror Nights 14 at Universal Studios Singapore

Selected evenings until 1 November 2026. If you’re looking for genuine scares, Universal Studios Singapore’s Halloween Horror Nights 14 is the more intense option. This year’s event features four haunted houses, with a storyline centred on the Karang Guni Man.

Event sessions are advertised from 7.30pm to 12.30am on selected nights. This is not our pick for younger children: Resorts World Sentosa does not recommend the event for children under 13. Check official advisories before buying.

Best for: Older visitors seeking high-intensity Halloween thrills.

See official tickets and selected dates.

4. HIIT THE BEACH at Palawan Beach

24 October 2026 to 31 January 2027. Not technically a Halloween event, but an easy activity to pair with a weekend visit. HIIT THE BEACH stands for High Intensity Ice Cream Training, an eight-zone activity space combining playful movement challenges with a beachside, ice-cream-inspired setting.

The organisers say visitors can complete as much or as little of the circuit as they wish, so it is more of a light-hearted family outing than a serious fitness test. Entry is free.

Best for: Families and friends looking for an outdoor, lower-cost activity.

Find details on Sentosa’s official page.

5. Halloween movies by the beach

24 October to 1 November 2026. Sentosa is also listing a Halloween edition of Movies by the Beach at Siloso Point. The Islander newsletter describes screenings in the historic Fort Siloso setting, with a mix of family adventures and spookier titles.

Screenings: 24 October, Night at the Museum (PG); 25 October, Dora and the Lost City of Gold (PG); 31 October, Happy Death Day (PG13); and 1 November, Happy Death Day 2U (PG13). Screenings start at 7.30pm beside the Surrender Chambers at Fort Siloso. Admission is free and no booking is required.

Best for: A relaxed evening out, with careful attention to the movie ratings for younger viewers.

See the official schedule and wet-weather advice.

Which Sentosa Halloween experience should you choose?

For families with younger children, Into the Glowcean would be our starting point. For pet owners, the Singapore Dog Festival offers something different. Those keen on a proper fright can look at Halloween Horror Nights 14, while HIIT THE BEACH is a free outing that continues long after Halloween.

Planning tip: Several activities end on 1 November 2026. Verify the latest operating dates, ticket conditions, age restrictions and weather-related updates on each organiser’s official website before heading down.

Editor’s note: This is an event guide compiled from Sentosa and the respective organisers’ announced programmes, not a first-hand event review. Event details may change.

A Sea of Flavours at Edge, Pan Pacific Singapore — An Honest Review

We don’t do big birthday dinners often. But when we do, the bar has to be set properly.

For the wife’s birthday this year, we brought the kids along to Edge Restaurant at Pan Pacific Singapore, specifically for their A Sea of Flavours dinner buffet, running Fridays to Sundays from 15 May until 21 June 2026. It is a seafood-forward spread curated by Executive Chef Andy Oh, and the freshness of the raw seafood section alone made the trip worthwhile.

The Fresh Seafood is Where This Buffet Shines

The fresh seafood on ice is the real draw here. Boiled Oysters, Boston Lobster, fresh Scallops, and a selection of fried items, all impeccably fresh and beautifully sectioned. The oysters were clean and briny, the scallops sweet without any hint of fishiness, and the Boston Lobster was handled with proper care. You could taste the difference between a buffet that sources seriously and one that doesn’t.

The sectioning matters more than you’d think in a buffet setting. Everything had its own space, its own plate, its own dedicated serving utensil. No cross-contamination, no tired-looking combinations. It felt less like a buffet line and more like a seafood counter you would trust.

The Cooked Crab Stations

Beyond the raw selection, the cooked crab dishes held their own. Salt-baked Mud Crab, Fried Mantou paired with the Chilli Crab Sauce, and Creamy Salted Egg Yolk Crab were all well-prepared and worth cycling through more than once.

The soup of the day when we were there was the Mushroom Soup and it deserves a mention too. The aroma of the mushroom was rich without being heavy, and we helped ourselves to multiple rounds of the soup as it was just so fragrant and tasty. It is definitely worth making room for even when you are already working through the crab stations.

@themusingmind

Snow Crab. Boston Lobster. Fresh Sashimi & Oysters. Edge at Pan Pacific Singapore runs a serious spread. Good excuse for a birthday dinner. #PanPacificSingapore #EdgeSG #ShareYourMoments 🦀

♬ original sound – TheMusingMind – TheMusingMind

The Kids’ Rounds

One of the strengths of this spread is that it caters beyond the seafood-focused crowd. The kids gravitated toward the chocolate fondue and chocolate ice cream for dessert, and were thoroughly occupied. That matters when you are trying to actually enjoy your meal.

The Roast Duck Rice was another hit for them. Comfort food that did not feel out of place on a premium buffet, and it kept them engaged across the rounds without feeling like a separate kids’ menu.

The Broader Spread

The 12-hour Braised Tajima Wagyu Beef Short Rib is proper comfort food, fall-apart texture with good depth of flavour. The Mayura Station Chocolate-fed Wagyu Beef with Ponzu and Braised Leek is the more refined plate, best taken in smaller amounts. The Mud Crab Dum Biryani and Tandoori Fish Tikka rounded out the South Asian section well. The range kept everyone at the table happy across multiple rounds.

The Dessert Station

The Mango Pani Puri at the live station is a fun finish, and the flavour combination works well. The Honey Jelly with Snow Bird’s Nest and Aloe Vera is the more considered dessert choice: light, clean, and the right way to close a heavy meal. Yam Mousse Cake and Peach Tart are solid options for those who want something more conventional.

The Practical Details

A Sea of Flavours at Edge is priced at $128++ per adult and $64++ per child (aged 6 to 12), inclusive of free flow soft drinks. Dinner runs from 6:00pm to 10:00pm, Fridays to Sundays, until 21 June 2026.

For a family outing, it sits in the premium-but-justified category. The spread is wide enough that you are not fighting for variety, and the quality at the fresh seafood stations in particular makes the price defensible.

Overall, it was worth the birthday dinner call!

Black Tap Singapore Just Launched CrazySundaes — And It’s a World First

If you have been to Black Tap at Marina Bay Sands, you already know what the CrazyShake is about. Towering milkshakes, over-the-top toppings, the kind of thing that stops people mid-walk through The Shoppes. The New York burger and shake institution has been doing that here for eight years now, and it has just raised the stakes with something new.

Black Tap Singapore has launched the CrazySundae, a dessert that takes the spirit of the CrazyShake and rebuilds it as an ice cream sundae. More importantly, Singapore is the first stop on the global CrazySundae World Tour, which means this is a genuine world first. If you try it here before anywhere else, you are genuinely ahead of the curve.

Three flavours have launched to kick things off. Hella Hot Fudge layers vanilla ice cream with flourless chocolate cake, spiced peanut brittle, candied peanuts, and cocoa pebbles, finished with whipped cream and a drizzle of spicy hot fudge sauce. Cherry Bomb goes in a different direction entirely, with vanilla ice cream, cherry pie slices, crunchy pie crumble, whipped cream, and sour cherry sauce topped with maraschino cherries. The most interesting of the three for Singapore palates is probably Bangkok Banana Crunch, which pairs vanilla ice cream with fried bananas, banana pudding, corn flakes, banana crunch, and whipped cream, finished with dulce de leche sauce. The local reference feels intentional and it is the one I am most curious to try.

Alongside the CrazySundae launch, Black Tap has also opened a new alfresco dining area seating 38 guests, designed for both daytime lunches and evening drinks against the Marina Bay skyline. If you have ever wanted to enjoy a craft beer or cocktail outdoors at MBS without the full sit-down commitment, this new space is worth knowing about.

Black Tap is located at L1-80 of The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, open Monday to Friday from 11.30am to 10.15pm, and from 11am on weekends and public holidays. Reservations can be made at marinabaysands.com/restaurants/black-tap.html.

Essential Wisdom: Our 5 Best Day Trips from Perth (Expectation vs. Reality)

The second half of our trip was a whirlwind of day trips and retail investigation. We learnt a ton about where to save money, what to skip, and the must-buy souvenirs.

1. Northern Perth Family Fun (Day 7 Wisdom)

Our Day 7 was all about the pick your own strawberry farm. If you go, pack nets for your face—the flies were intense!

  • Caversham Tip: We had an amazing upclose encounter with the koalas! But book the koala hugging tickets in advance—they were sold out by the time we arrived.

  • Whiteman Park: The vintage train wasn’t running when we were there, but the vintage tram ride was a super fun substitute.

2. Rottnest Island (Day 9 Wisdom – The Drama)

  • Ferry Warning: The ferry ride was quite bumpy due to strong waves and wind, making seasickness very real.

  • Logistics are Key: We missed both our outbound and return ferries! Be aware that staff may get you onto the next ferry.

  • Parent Tip: Skip the bikes. The hop on and off buses were the most practical way to explore the island with young children.

3. The Shopping Verdict (Days 10 & 11)

We did the retail reconnaissance so you don’t have to:

  • Fremantle Souvenirs: Fremantle Market is the best place to get souvenirs like coffee beans, stuffed toys, and handmade soaps.

  • The Toy Hack & Best Value: Target had lots of good deals, but the real win for parents was the toys—they are incredibly cheap compared to back home!
  • Supermarket Sweeps: Don’t ignore Woolworths and Coles. They aren’t just for groceries; we found they are a must to check out for generally good deals and snacks to bring back.

  • DFO (The Trap): Honestly, DFO was generally “meh.” Do not waste your time unless you are specifically looking for Tommy Hilfiger—that was the only brand worth checking out.

  • Final Tip: If you need a tax refund, the counter is after you clear immigration at the airport.

Our WA Story: The Drama and Delight of a 12-Day Trip (Van Life vs. City Sprint)

We started our 12 days in Western Australia with one goal: proving that “money returns, time doesn’t”. What we ended up with was a two-part holiday—the gorgeous chaos of the campervan contrasted with the structured thrill of city day trips.

The Campervan Chapter: Reality Hits Early

Our adventure began with a sharp lesson: you need to expect delays. Our scheduled 9:00 AM campervan pick-up was pushed back, and it honestly sank our ambitious plans. We had to make a tough call at Busselton: ditch the planned sunset and Observatory tour to prioritise the essential grocery run.

The biggest joy was watching the landscape change daily: taking the train ride out on the Busselton Jetty, breathing the cool air inside Ngilgi Cave, and seeing the pure delight of the kids feeding animals at Big Valley Margaret River Campsite.

The final drive on Day 6 involved one last stop: we squeezed in our planned Vasse Felix winery visit just before starting the long 3.5 to 4-hour haul back to Perth.

The Perth Sprint: High Drama and Essential Wisdom

Days 7 through 12 were a high-energy sprint from our Perth base.

Our Day 7 focused solely on the pick-you-own strawberry farm. Later, the vintage train ride we planned at Whiteman Park wasn’t operating, but turns out, the vintage tram ride was a brilliant substitute!

Rottnest Island was pure adrenaline. I’ll be honest—there was serious drama. We missed both our outbound AND return ferries, but the relief when we caught the next one was immense! Be prepared: the bumpy ferry ride required attention. For parents, the hop on and off buses were a total game-changer for exploring the island with young children.

Our trip finished with final errands. We drove past the Blue Boat House and the Containbow, realising we didn’t need to stop for photos.

Our final piece of wisdom?
If you need a tax refund, the counter is after you clear immigration at the airport so do factor in time needed to clear immigrations.

Van Life Realities: The Honest Guide to Your 5-Day Campervan Trip

If you’re heading to WA, you’re considering a campervan. We booked ours through THL. This guide is about the realities, not the picture-perfect shots.

The Logistics that Defined Our First Day

If there is one thing we realised, it’s that you need to expect delays right out of the gate. Our scheduled 9:00 AM campervan pick-up was pushed back, forcing us to make a tough call at Busselton: ditch the planned sunset and Observatory tour to prioritise the essential grocery run.

  • Tip: If you’re late, take the Busselton Jetty train ride, but skip the longer tours. Then, go straight to Coles or Woolworths.

The Joys of Nomad Life

The real magic of the van was the campsites. Every night was a new environment, a new adventure for the kids.

Campsite ExperienceDayLocationHighlights (from Itinerary)
RAC Busselton Holiday Park2BusseltonA needed dose of comfort and amenities after a tough travel day.
Tasman Holiday Parks3DunsboroughOur base for exploring chocolate factories and Meelup Beach.

An Endless Summer Awaits: LAVO Singapore Reopens with a Breathtaking Amalfi Coast Makeover

Imagine yourself 57 storeys high, with a gentle breeze in your hair and the glittering Singapore skyline spread out beneath you. This is the promise of the newly reimagined LAVO Coastal Italian Restaurant & Rooftop Bar, a destination that captures the very essence of an eternal Italian summer.

Perched atop Marina Bay Sands, LAVO has shed its skin to reveal a stunning new look inspired by the sun-drenched elegance of the Amalfi Coast. Since its launch in 2018, it has been a beacon of skyline glamour, and now it enters a new era. Think warm Mediterranean neutrals, gorgeous handcrafted tiles, and honey-toned accents that glow during golden hour. The expansive wraparound terrace offers unparalleled panoramic views of both the city and the sea, creating the perfect backdrop for everything from a champagne brunch to sunset cocktails that stretch late into the night.

Image Credits: Marina Bay Sands

A long-time favourite for the jet-set, LAVO has always buzzed with a unique energy. It has hosted an incredible lineup of stars, including Mariah Carey, The Weeknd, David Beckham, and Bella Hadid. The recent relaunch party was no exception, with Singapore-born American actor Ross Butler hosting the star-studded affair and celebrity DJ Kim Lee setting the mood on the dance floor, reaffirming LAVO’s status as the place to see and be seen.

Image Credits: Marina Bay Sands

A Culinary Ode to La Dolce Vita

The heart of LAVO’s transformation is its refreshed menu, a beautiful love letter to coastal Italy. While long-time fans will be delighted to find signatures like the legendary Meatball and the towering 20-Layer Chocolate Cake still hold pride of place, they are now joined by a symphony of new seaside flavours.

Prepare to be swept away by dishes like the Mafaldine Seafood Alfredo, a decadent pasta tossed with succulent shrimp and scallops in a rich lobster butter sauce. Freshness is paramount, celebrated in plates like the Grilled Branzino, perfectly cooked and brightened with a Sorrento lemon vinaigrette, and the tender Grilled Octopus antipasti. It’s a menu where simplicity meets sophistication, letting the pure, vibrant flavours of the sea truly shine.

Image Credits: Marina Bay Sands

Raise a Glass to Coastal Flavours

No Italian escape is complete without the perfect drink, and LAVO’s new cocktail programme is a masterpiece. Each creation is designed to complement the coastal menu, from refreshing spritzes to bold, flavour-forward cocktails that taste like summer in a glass.

Image Credits: Marina Bay Sands

For a true taste of the Mediterranean, try the Amalfi Breeze—a dreamy, effervescent blend of coconut, gin, and prosecco. Or perhaps the From Sicily with Love, a floral and fruity concoction that pays homage to the Italian countryside. For those who prefer their fun guilt-free, the mocktail selection is just as enchanting, featuring the velvety and tropical La Dolce Vita.

Your Sky-High Escape Awaits

More than just a restaurant, LAVO is a destination pulsating with energy from day to night. It’s a place for celebrating life’s moments, big and small. Its famous weekend brunches are a fixture on the city’s social calendar, and for the ultimate party, the iconic LAVO Party Brunch returns on select weekends with live DJs and immersive entertainment.

Whether you’re settling into the sun-drenched dining room, enjoying an alfresco meal on the terrace, or soaking up the vibrant atmosphere at the lounge, LAVO promises an unforgettable escape. It’s where the spirit of la dolce vita comes alive, high above the heart of the city.

Find them: LAVO Singapore is located at Level 57, Marina Bay Sands Hotel Tower 1.

Forget the Merlion Magnet. This Is the Singapore Souvenir You’ll Actually Use!

Life is a collection of moments and experiences. For me, a scent has the power to unlock a flood of memories faster than any photograph. The smell of old books takes me back to my schooling days; the salty sea air, to blissful afternoons spent boating. So when I heard about a local brand that bottles the very essence of Singapore, I was immediately intrigued. This isn’t just about perfume; it’s about bottling nostalgia.

I’m talking about Singapore Memories®, a premium fragrance brand that is completely redefining what a souvenir can be. Forget the usual merlion magnets and keychains; this is a brand that has managed to capture the island’s soul through its most evocative flora – the native orchid.

What truly sets Singapore Memories apart is its deep commitment to authenticity. This is where heritage, history, and meticulous research intersect. The founders spent over a decade studying the aromatic and medicinal properties of Asian orchids. The result is a collection that feels both luxurious and deeply meaningful. As founder Ms Prachi Saini Garg and her team see it, “scent is storytelling,” and each bottle is a tribute to Singapore’s botanical heritage and the pioneers who nurtured it, from Sir Stamford Raffles to the visionaries behind the National Orchid Garden.

Of course, a fragrance brand lives and dies by its scents. I took a deep dive into their signature collection, and it’s a journey worth taking.

The Signature Collection: A Whiff of Heritage

Singapore Girl® (S$35) The icon. The legend. This isn’t a new creation but a stunning revival of a beloved perfume from the 1960s. For those who appreciate a touch of history, this is a must-have. It opens with a vibrant burst of citrus and softens into a graceful heart of lotus and water-lily, before settling into a warm teakwood base. Our reviewer aptly noted that while the initial floral sweetness is prominent, the scent beautifully “grew more and more musky” over time, revealing a richer character that lasts throughout the day. It’s a fragrance that balances modern femininity with timeless elegance.

Raffles Heritage (S$35) Evoking a sense of colonial charm and contemporary refinement, this is a classic masculine scent. With confident, robust notes of cedarwood and vetiver, it’s designed for the modern gentleman who appreciates the finer things in life. It feels sophisticated, grounded, and timeless.

Peranakan Oud (S$35) This is a bold, unisex fragrance that truly makes a statement. Combining intoxicating jasmine, rich oud, and warm cardamom, it’s a nod to the intricate craftsmanship of Peranakan culture. Reviews for this are often passionate; one described it as a “love it or hate it” scent due to its intense, spicy, and musky character. It’s a complex and exotic perfume for those who aren’t afraid to stand out.

Reves de Singapour (S$35) The name, meaning “Dreams of Singapore,” perfectly captures this artistic floral blend. It’s a unisex fragrance that speaks to travellers and dreamers. One review highlighted its spicy top notes of cinnamon and nutmeg that evolve into a complex, woody scent, calling it an “exotic perfume” that feels both memorable and alluring.

More Than a Perfume, It’s an Experience

What I find most compelling is that Singapore Memories positions each fragrance as a “luxury souvenir.” This is the perfect answer for anyone, be it tourists or locals like us who are looking for a truly special gift. It’s a piece of Singapore’s identity, elegantly bottled and ready to be shared.

The brand’s vision doesn’t stop here. They are exploring innovations in aromatherapy and plan to partner with high-end hotels, extending Singapore’s unique floral story across the globe.

In a world of fleeting trends, Singapore Memories has created something timeless. It’s more than just a product; it’s a story, a memory, and a sophisticated way to carry the spirit of Singapore with you. It’s a souvenir that doesn’t just sit on a shelf, but one that truly lingers, unlocking your own Singapore memories with every scent. This is the kind of winning souvenir that is just perfect!
