Singapore Shopping Festival

The Great Singapore Sale was first held 12 years ago. Since then it has gained strength, support and sponsors from year to year and today is an important landmark on the Singapore calendar. It has become an annual Singapore shopping festival with sale all over the island in the month of June and July.

Today the Singapore Sale is akin to other retail festivals like the Singapore Fashion Festival, the Singapore Jewelfest and Singapore Food Festival.

The Most Affordable Shopping Destination

Did you know that Singapore emerged as the most affordable shopping destination in the Asia Pacific region, according to an international survey! No wonder then that Singapore is Asia’s Shopping Capital!

These festivals are held to attract the top tourist dollar. Another interesting fact is that tourists spent 50% of their holiday budgets on shopping in Singapore alone! With tough competition from other Asian countries, Singapore has constantly innovated to come out with a winning formula when it comes to Shopping Sales and festivals.

Now tourists who spend above $300 a day can partake of lucky dips where they can win foot massages, to relieve their aching feet. Another interesting aspect of the Singapore Sale is the Singapore Showcase where one can buy Uniquely Singapore souvenirs and gift items.

The Singapore shopping festival is never a standalone festival - at any given time there are numerous performances, events and attractions to enthrall the mall rat. You can shop at malls which are also open for late night shopping. Top that up with a fabulous dinner at any of Singapore’s eating joints and you have a perfect day!

Shop with Peace of Mind

One area of shopping in Singapore is that you are assured of a decent quality of merchandise and service. The country’s stringent laws make it a customer’s delight and there are adequate forums to seek redressal for defective goods and services.

With the biggest brands available in Singapore, there is no need to zip down to Italy or France. Just come to the Singapore and shop to your heart and wallet’s content!
