SINGAPORE – Popular outdoor market Artbox Singapore has returned for its third edition here, with light projections and a much larger venue.
The event, an offshoot of Artbox in Bangkok, was launched on Friday (Nov 15) at the Singapore Turf Club in Kranji. It will be held for two consecutive weekends.
At 200,000 sq ft, Artbox Singapore’s new event space is about a third larger than the one at Bayfront last year, which was around 140,000 sq ft.
The event’s organiser, Mr Kent Teo, 34, told The Straits Times: “After receiving feedback about space constraints, we hope to comfortably accommodate a larger crowd by having a bigger venue and wider walkways between booths.”
He is expecting more than half a million visitors to Artbox 2019, which has more than 300 retailers, food stalls, craft workshops and entertainment acts.
Visitors will get the chance to see an idyllic garden projected onto four 12m-tall shipping containers in a showcase of the event’s theme of Eden this year.
The art display by local creative company Ionix.Lab is the attraction that Mr Teo is most excited for the public to see.
