When the sun sets over Fort Canning, the hill tells a different story. Festival at the Fort 2026 transforms the park after dark with immersive light and projection installations that awaken its layered past, a place where royal courts once stood, empires clashed, and Singapore's identity began to take shape.

This year, the festival opens its doors wider than ever, with an expanded lineup of hands on workshops alongside our signature drop in craft and heritage activities. Take on The Heir of the Forbidden Hill, an interactive quest that puts you in the sandals of a royal heir on the day a kingdom's fate hangs in the balance. Carve your own piece of the park's story at a heritage relief printing workshop, or stroll the Spice Garden before brewing your own tropical drink from its plants. Then wander the illuminated grounds and let the rest of the stories find you.

Festival at the Fort is a celebration of place, memory, and discovery, staged beneath the canopy of one of Singapore's most storied hills.
