This is part two of my coverage for Singapore Night Festival 2018. The first part featured most of this year’s Night Lights.
IMPORTANT! Bag Checks
Bag checks will be conducted at Zones 3 and 4 (Cathay Green and SMU Campus Green) this year, so you are advised to only bring small bags, or no bags if you wish to visit the Cathay Green and Festival Village area.

Automatarium (by David Berga)
Singapore Art Museum Courtyard (Queen Street)
Show Times: 8:00PM – 9:00PM, 10:00PM – 11:00PM
Step into this peculiar fairground, Automatarium, and find a curious collection of ‘very realistic’ automatons that come alive – whenever you insert a coin.
Don’t be shy – The barker will offer you a coin.
A few of these very unique machines were brought in – you can witness the Corpse Bride coming to life…
Be amused by the Clown‘s jokes and tricks.
Or have your future revealed by the Fortune Teller.
The performances are cyclical – like actual automatons of old… But don’t just insert coin and run away.
Stand in front of each machine, and you’ll get to experience a rather special miming-storytelling experience.
And maybe also get some much needed signs from the beyond.

23 Aug: 8:00PM, 10:15PM
24 Aug: 7:30PM, 8:40PM, 10:00PM

This is just one segment from the Elements. Night Fest visitors will get to experience urban dance performed on a special reflective water stage.
If you sit at the first row, you’ll likely get wet!
