Music Mania
Break out your wellies and ponchos, and prepare to brave the possible wet weather but it'll be worth it because Neon Lights 2018's line-up is nothing short of spectacular.
The family-friendly arts and music festival went on hiatus in 2017 but returns with an expanded three-day format this weekend. With the Singapore leg of Laneway 2019 put on hold, Neon Lights will be the last major international music festival for awhile.
Kicking things off on Friday are Malaysian pop diva Yuna and Thailand's Paradise Bangkok Molam International Band. The festival goes into full swing on Saturday with indie favourites Interpol (pictured), The Vaccines, Cigarettes After Sex and more. Neon Lights 2018 winds down on Sunday with Caribou, Rhye and Thai breakout sensation Phum Viphurit.
