Civic District Outdoor Festival at the Civic District

August 11 & 12, 5pm to 11pm

If you've always wanted a pet bunny but are allergic to fur, this art event is for you.

You can have a picnic while being surrounded by giant furless bunnies (because art) and watching buildings get lit up with multimedia projections (also because art).

Here are more things you can do there.

Heritage Carnival 2017 at Sentosa's Palawan Green

Till August 13, 11am to 9pm

You don't need a DeLorean (or to be old) to experience what life was like during Singapore's kampung days.

Besides eating local dishes like chendol and nonya kueh at this carnival, you can also take photos with people dressed as old-school villagers.

So you'll have proof that you actually left your house for something other than school or work.
