Singapore’s nightlife reveals itself to those who know where to look. While closing times may be earlier than in other Asian hubs, the city offers a sophisticated and diverse after-dark scene. The legendary Raffles Hotel provides a quintessential start to any evening. Toast your arrival with a classic Singapore Sling before discovering the city’s hidden cocktail bars, rooftop lounges, and intimate live music venues.

Zouk

Zouk offers some of Asia’s finest destinations for clubbing, fashion and food. Occupying three old warehouses by the Singapore river, the Zouk group showcases Moorish designs in the interior, which surround a large dance floor, as well as bars and dining options. Stroll over to Capital and Phuture for more intimate sessions if the main building gets too crazy.
