For the young and the young at heart, New Asia - Singapore offers a range of night activities which will keep you partying all night long. From jazz and house music to tribal and Top 40, Singapore offers a play-list of dance clubs for any generation.

Most clubs open from 10pm till 1am (Sun-Thu) and until 3am (Fri-Sat) and the dress code is generally smart casual.
Those who want something more relaxed may enjoy a night at a number of pubs in the city or just recline comfortably at a jazz lounge where world-class jazz can be heard.

If wine and high spirits are not for you, go for all-night bowling at one of the bowling alleys at Kallang and Marina South. After a hectic night of activity, settle down to supper at one of the many 24-hour coffee houses in the city and superb food stalls scattered throughout the island. Teochew porridge, caramel bean curd or just coffee and cake are just some satisfying ways in which Singaporeans end a pleasant evening.
 
 
 
 
 
Numerous sophisticated multiplexes dot the island and offer cinema buffs a wide selection of movies. Refer to the local dailies for detailed listings of movies offered in more than 50 cinemas islandwide.

"Singapore is where the rivers of culture from East and West meet and mix. In that mixing, strange and wonderful combinations sometimes emerge, giving Singapore its particular character. For many visitors, Singapore is a home away from home, familiar yet different. The arts are not a show we put on for foreigners but an expression of what we are in our daily lives." Brigadier-General George YeoMinister for Information and the Arts
Amidst the hustle and bustle of a modern, sophisticated city, visitors to New Asia - Singapore will find inspiration in Singapore's unique culture.
