Tips for Nightlife Seekers in Singapore

πŸ•™

Start Late

In many cities, the real nightlife does not kick off until 11pm or later. Have dinner first, then head out. Singapore's peak hours may vary by district.

πŸ’³

Carry Cash and Cards

Some clubs are cash-only while others prefer cards. Keep both on you and leave valuables at your accommodation.

πŸš•

Plan Your Way Home

Know the late-night transport options before you go out. Save a taxi app on your phone and keep your accommodation address handy.

πŸ—£οΈ

Ask Locals

Hotel and hostel staff know the current hot spots. Nightlife scenes shift constantly, so yesterday's guidebook tip may be outdated.
