Rain is ringing in the New Year in Singapore. The K-pop legend will headline the inaugural Singland Festival, leading a four-day indoor music celebration at Marina Bay Sands. Taking place from 31 December to 3 January, Singland Festival is set to be the country’s biggest-ever indoor New Year party, with four international headliners taking the stage across four nights.
Rain will kick off the festivities with a 90-minute concert at the Sands Grand Ballroom, running from 9:30 PM to 11 PM on New Year's Eve. Fans can expect his signature slick choreography, megawatt charisma, and a high-energy setlist stacked with hits like 'Rainism' and 'La Song'. The Korean superstar also made headlines recently for his role in the international film Black Swan and his return to the small screen in Ghost Doctor.

Organised by Season Culture, Singland Festival blends live music with immersive art, interactive experiences, and cultural showcases. Across the festival grounds, attendees can expect mega sing-alongs, LED-lit countdown clocks, KTV corners, pop-up food booths, exclusive merch drops, and a Wishing Wall to ring in 2026 with intention. The event also weaves in a sustainability mission, donating S$1 from every ticket sold to local tree-planting efforts.
Ticket prices for Rain’s show range from S$198 (Cat 3) to S$328 (SVIP, which includes a goodie bag). Pre-sale opens 15 September, with general sales launching 30 September via SISTIC. Details of the other three headliners will roll out soon, with announcements scheduled for 3, 5, and 10 September.

Timed with Singapore’s 60th year of independence, Singland Festival is more than a concert—it’s a celebration of local pride, global music, and the power of coming together. As the city gets ready to welcome 2026, this all-new festival is shaping up to be the hottest ticket of the season.
