In conjunction with the festival, we have lined up many fun-filled yet, educational festival activities and programmes: there is something for everyone at the Singapore HeritageFest. Come discover and celebrate your heroes with us and the heroes amongst us! For more details, visit the festival website: www.heritagefest.org.sg or call the festival hotline 6736 0503.
