We are Singapasar, we are Singapasareans.
Sundown Festival 2017 at Labrador Park
August 5, from 4pm
This is a music festival that aims to celebrate Asian music and culture.
But unlike previous editions, which featured artists from all over Asia, this year's festival will showcase only homegrown talents, such as Derrick Hoh, FARRAGO, and Jack & Rai.
Because why support our neighbours when we can just ownself support ownself?

Manatee Canola's birthday
August 6
River Safari's icon Canola, the largest manatee within the Amazon Flooded Forest, is turning three!
She loves belly rubs and high fibre biscuits, and while you probably wouldn't be able to offer her either, you can still head down to River Safari to congratulate and wave at her from afar if you're a decent human being.
Wildlife Reserves Singapore is also offering a 52 per cent discount off admission fees for the Singapore Zoo and Jurong Bird Park till August 31, so you can make it a day of waving at animals.

And sleepwalk through work on August 10 and 11.
