Five Footway Festival 2024

March 9 @ 10:00 am - March 17 @ 8:00 pm

Free
Five Footway Festival is returning for its third edition to Chinatown Singapore from 9 to 17 March 2024, with many activities for visitors of all ages to enjoy. The festival offers a fantastic opportunity to relive the storied history of Chinatown through traditional games, exhibitions, performances and workshops!
  • Learn more about how the lives of early immigrants intertwined with the Five Footway across trades, clans, cultural, arts and entertainment activities at a special exhibition called The Warmth and Bustle of The Five-Footways, organised in collaboration with Sun Yat-Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall and students from Hwa Chong Institution.
  • Embark on a theatrical walking tour with Tan Ah Huat in Chinatown, as he takes you back in time through the eyes of a Chinese immigrant from the 1920s and shares the fascinating tale of Chinatown back in the early days of Singapore.
  • Revel in intricate cultural performances including Chinese Opera, Kirin, Lion and Dragon Dance. You might even pick up a new hobby or two from their workshop experiences.
  • Learn traditional recipes including Hainanese-style Pineapple Stir-Fry Pork Rind, Hakka Rice Wine, Put Chai Ko and many more.
  • Relive and introduce our favourite childhood games to the younger generations at Pagoda Street with the nostalgic can and ring toss, hoop wheeling, chapteh, zero point, and snakes and ladders. Traditional Singaporean snacks and biscuits are also not to be missed, including Kacang Putih from stall vendors.

Admission to the Five Footway Festival is free. Tickets for selected workshops can be purchased from https://peatix.com/group/7133051. To find out more, visit the website https://www.chinatown.sg for more information.
