Set amidst the vibrant skyline of Singapore, the city’s nightlife offers visitors something different to experience away from the traditional tourist attractions. Suffice it to say that whether it’s on your first visit or a return trip, there’s always something new to be discovered in this world-class cocktail capital.

Visit Rooftop Destinations

No trip to this destination is complete without visiting a breathtaking rooftop bar, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the urban landscape. These elevated spots are the city’s most iconic social sites, located within easy reach of hotels like Dao by Dorsett AMTD Singapore. Beyond the famous Marina Bay Sands, explore other high-altitude venues that offer striking architecture and refreshing breezes.

Experience Hidden Speakeasies

If you love mystery and expertly crafted drinks, Singapore’s hidden bar scene won’t disappoint, especially if you are based in the downtown area. Sophisticated lounges can be found at properties here that are close to the heritage shophouses of Telok Ayer and the historic streets of Tanjong Pagar. Closer to the main town, you can explore secret entrances or spend time amidst the intimate atmospheres of the city’s most awarded cocktail dens.

Gain Insights Into Local Spirits

Singapore sits at a creative crossroads, so finding out more about the island’s burgeoning craft gin and brewery heritage is a must. Head to a local distillery or a tasting room, where you can see spirits being produced as well as vintage bar equipment and learn about the journey from botanical to glass. While you can order classic drinks here, don’t miss the chance to head to a top-tier lounge; apart from engaging in a gin tasting session, just sit back and take in the inspiring city vistas.

Explore Vibrant Night Markets

To really feel the city’s pulse, spend time wandering around the bustling evening markets and street food zones, with a chance to interact with the locals, too. Visit the vibrant areas around Clarke Quay or Boat Quay, which offer a multi-sensory experience with plenty of spots to peruse.
