SANTAI at the Singapore Courtyard reimagines the space as a place to slow down, recharge and connect. Extending the festival’s theme, “The Power in Us,” SANTAI invites everyone to unwind and take part in guided and drop-in activities that celebrate collective strength and personal expression.

From capturing portraits at the photo booth, doodling your own reflections on power, to crafting small yet meaningful keepsakes, there is something for everyone to enjoy at their own pace. The space will also host artist talks, DJ sessions and themed craft booths, making SANTAI at Singapore Courtyard an inviting stop throughout the festival whether you’re here to linger, participate or simply take a breather.

Ask Auntie

Join Team Ask Auntie for a house party of epic proportions! This is where relationships will be tested and secrets will be revealed, as you, the audience, play an integral part in the performance, providing suggestions and prompts while also serving as unwitting house guests. Our performers may just break into song, so if they do, revel in the madness and sing along.
