The café section stays right on theme with cute character-inspired foods such as the bombolones, Italian stuffed doughnuts, and lattes.

Passion is Volcanic: Desire in Southeast Asian Art

The National Gallery Singapore is pushing the boundaries of artistic expression in Asia with its first-ever R18 exhibition. The provocative exhibition aims to challenge the way we view subjects like desire and intimacy—reframing them as lived experiences rather than a taboo.

The exhibit titled Passion is Volcanic: Desire in Southeast Asian Art, explores how desire and sexuality have been represented in art in Southeast Asian societies. It brings together over 70 works from across periods, regions, and cultures, featuring a diverse media of paintings, sculptures, and photography.

Tickets are priced at S$5 for Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents, and S$8 for other nationalities. The age requirement is 18 and above, and valid identification is required for entry. As Southeast Asia’s leading visual arts institution steps into bold new territory, visit this boundary-pushing exhibition to experience desire, intimacy, and expression through a new lens.

East Coast Comedy Standup Night

After a long week, there’s nothing like a good laugh to shake off the stress. On 2 May 2026, some of Singapore’s best comedians are taking the stage at East Coast Comedy for a night of stand-up you won’t want to miss.

The lineup features crowd favourites like Dr Jason Leong, Rishi Budhrani, Fakkah Fuzz, Sharul Channa, Deepak Chandran, Jinx Yeo, Prem John, and Jacky Ng, alongside rising talents bringing fresh material to the mic. Running from 8pm to 9.30pm, expect an evening full of witty jokes, relatable humour, and plenty of laughter. Tickets for this event are priced at S$22.05.

Filmhouse

Singapore has seen a wave of closures in the art scene, such as The Projector and Filmgarde Cineplexes. Although independent art spaces are increasingly succumbing to corporate developments, Filmhouse’s opening is a second chance for us to support these platforms.

This weekend, catch movies ranging from the latest releases like The Drama to beloved classics like Princess Mononoke by legendary director Hayao Miyazaki—or support local works like Amoeba, an award-winning film by director Tan Siyou, who follows four rebellious girls as they form a secret gang.

As part of its two-month-long housewarming party, the cinema has also launched a Music in Film series, featuring the iconic La La Land alongside Whiplash and Cowboy Bebop: The Movie. Weekend standard ticket prices are S$16.50 while concession prices are S$14.50. Whether you’re there for the films, the music, or the community, it’s a great way to support the local arts scene while also having a blast.

Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue

An iconic childhood game is coming to life in Singapore this April, the Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue! Situated within the Green Canvas at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue makes its first stop in Asia

From 24 April 2026 to 13 September 2026, join this interactive experience as you venture through eight Minecraft rooms to rescue a village from a zombie attack. From large-scale immersive projections and theatrical sets to motion-tracking gameplay and experiential storytelling, step into the pixelated Minecraft Forest, gather in-game resources, and interact with iconic Minecraft mobs in real life!

Sushi Express Powerpuff Girl promotion

Nothing like a little sugar, spice, and everything nice to pick you out of an end-of-week slum. Until 7 June 2026, Sushi Express is rolling out a limited-time Powerpuff Girl-inspired promotion. Expect themed food creations, like the Rainbow Cheesecake (S$3++), and merchandise that showcase the adorably devious trio, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup.

To win the exclusive merchandise, Sushi Express designed a colour-coded stamp card system with different outlets tied to a specific colour of the Powerpuff Girl palette. For every $10 spent in a single receipt, diners earn a stamp. From there, it’s a tiered reward system:

2 stamps unlock a gachapon spin with a $1 top-up
4 stamps score a free gachapon spin (with prizes like keycharms or vouchers)
6 stamps of the same colour redeem a Powerpuff Girls plushie

Whether you’re going for the sushi, the merch, or just a dose of childhood nostalgia, this limited-time drop will spice up your life with delicious food and light-hearted fun!
