  • Candlelit Classics, Hoops Hysteria & Mysteries Abound - A Vibrant Thursday in Singapore
    Jul 17 2025
    Welcome to “Things to Do in Singapore!” It’s Thursday, July 17, 2025, and the Lion City is buzzing with energy. As the morning sun warms up the skyline, Singapore is leaning into a stretch of drier, warmer weather—expect maximum temperatures north of 34°C and balmy nights hovering around 28°C. Pack your water bottle and sunscreen if you’re heading out today, but look forward to just the occasional brief thundery shower in the late morning or afternoon[2].

    The city’s air feels dynamic with several exciting events setting the pace:

    - For music lovers, the long-awaited “Candlelight: Queen Vs. ABBA” concert lights up tonight, promising iconic hits set under a magical candlelit ambiance—a perfect escape for fans of classic rock and pop[1].
    - Sports enthusiasts, your day starts strong as the FIBA Intercontinental Cup tips off at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, bringing global basketball action and electrifying matches from this morning onward[7].
    - Those with a thirst for mystery can sign up for “Singapore Murder Mystery: Death in the Shadows” at 1 Empress Place—an immersive outdoor game blending exploration, teamwork, and storytelling[4].
    - Families and culture seekers can explore one of over 15 highlighted attractions, such as Gardens by the Bay, Singapore Botanic Gardens, or the ever-popular Universal Studios Singapore for blockbuster thrills[3].
    - If you’re a foodie or love local color, stroll through vibrant street markets like Bugis Street or the Little India Arcade for a spectrum of flavors, souvenirs, and bargains[9].

    In local news, the investment scene is abuzz: Moomoo Singapore just hit 1.5 million users, signaling a new wave of accessible digital finance for everyday residents. The recent MooFest at Suntec brought over 4,000 attendees for a deep dive into investing trends and financial innovation[8]. On the tech front, the world’s slimmest foldable phone—the HONOR Magic V5—just launched, adding more sparkle to Singapore’s reputation as a gadget-lover’s paradise[10].

    If you’re thinking of today’s must-dos, consider these picks:
    - Watch buzzy street artists and sample kopi at CHIJMES, a historic convent-turned-hipster hangout, perfect for a tranquil midday break[6].
    - Beat the heat in the surreal mist of the Cloud Forest, one of the coolest spots (literally) at Gardens by the Bay[3].

    - Test your detective skills at the murder mystery event for something interactive and offbeat[4].

    Local tip of the day: For the best hawker lunch, time your trip to Maxwell Food Centre or Tekka Centre just after noon, when stalls are freshest but lines are shortest. Don’t forget to bring cash—many classics are still cash-only[9].

    Looking ahead, football fever is set to take over with the Singapore Festival of Football kicking off next week, bringing Arsenal, AC Milan, and Newcastle United to the National Stadium in a rare showcase of European club action[10]. Stay tuned for tomorrow’s deep dive into weekend street festivals and next-level family activities. Until then, keep cool, explore widely, and soak up the city’s July buzz!
