Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay

#singaporetrip Nicknamed “The Durian” due to its spiky exterior, Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay is Singapore’s premier performing arts center. It houses a concert hall, theatre, recital studios, and outdoor performance spaces — hosting everything from ballet and opera to jazz, indie bands, and multicultural showcases. Located by Marina Bay, the venue is not just about shows — the architecture, rooftop views, and public art displays make it a destination in itself. Their free outdoor performances are a great bonus for budget-conscious travelers. Whether you're watching a world-class production or catching sunset views, the Esplanade elevates any #singaporetrip.
