Singapore is set to usher in the new year with a burst of colour and creativity as ARTBOX, the city’s largest indoor, all-day night festival, makes a triumphant return this January with an exciting twist – ARTBOX AVENUE. Spanning an impressive 105,000 sqft at Singapore Expo Hall 6, the event promises an immersive tapestry of bustling streets, showcasing a dynamic fusion of global street culture.

Dynamic Collaboration with SGAG
Building on the previous year’s success, ARTBOX partners with SGAG, Singapore’s wackiest content publisher, for the second consecutive year. This collaboration ensures a seamless fusion of vibrant creativity and engaging experiences, promising attendees an unforgettable journey into the heart of artistic expression.
A Stage Set for Spectacle
The ARTBOX stage is set to be a dynamic platform for captivating live performances featuring homegrown bands and international acts. The vibrant setting allows participants to showcase their skills and engage in lively exchanges, amplifying the festival’s energetic vibe.
SGAG Stage Shenanigans
The SGAG stage promises a riot of fun by introducing the electrifying Hopscotch of Pain challenge. Participants will navigate a beam covered in acupuncture mats, adding a hilarious and painful twist to the classic hopscotch game. Brace for laughter and perhaps a few yelps of surprise!
