Presented by Defence Collective Singapore (DCS), the inaugural Defence Collective Festival 2025 offers an engaging cross-museum journey designed to connect visitors with the people and stories that have safeguarded our nation over the past six decades.
This November, Singaporeans are invited to take part in a uniquely immersive experience that brings together history, heritage, and the spirit of national defence.
Held in commemoration of both SG60 and SAF60, the festival’s first collective celebration, following the onboarding of the Singapore Navy Museum and the Singapore Air Force Museum into the DCS Family, has rolled out a series of activities for participants to partake in. Because there is just so much in store for you, we’ve come up with a mini-guide so that you don’t have to fret about planning.
To join the special paid activities, grab an Activity Passport. An All Access Pass across the three museums costs S$32. A Single Museum Pass for any one museum costs S$12. Book them here.
Get up to 15% off passport activities for all Confirm Good readers!

The event runs from 10am to 6pm on 15, 16, 22, and 23 November 2025, across the Singapore Discovery Centre, Singapore Navy Museum and the Singapore Air Force Museum.
Visitors can journey on an adventure across the three iconic locations with a free shuttle bus available for cross-museum visits on 15 and 16 November 2025. View the bus schedules here.
Fret not if you’re not much of a planner, because DCS has already come up with a Visitor Itinerary for you to enjoy to the fullest!
1. Singapore Discovery Centre
You can play games of the Black Lake Series Mission — Black Lake Shadow Grid and Black Lake Laser Battlefield at S$10 per game. Make sure to pre-book your slots! Both activities run from 15 to 16 November 2025, and 22 to 23 November 2025, from 10am to 7pm.

Want to know what a day out in the field would feel like? Let’s Get Outfield! allows you to step into the boots of a soldier with hands-on fun camo face paint, and basha tent pitching. Pre-register here.

Besides all these activities, kids can enjoy a free AR Colouring Workshop where they can colour their favourite defence vehicles on paper and watch them come to life as animated 3D creations with the use of augmented reality (AR).
Pen Your Wishes is also a free message-writing activity to pen our gratitude to the soldiers and veterans who have proudly served our nation. There are also Carnival Booths set up for kids to score some prizes. Expect live performances on 15 November 2025 to immerse yourself in the festival.
