Free Manchester Derby Live Screening at Clarke Quay This 17 January

When football’s fiercest rivalry lights up the screen, Singapore’s fans won’t be watching alone.

On 17 January 2026, StarHub is turning Clarke Quay Fountain Square into a buzzing matchday hub for the Manchester Derby, bringing Manchester United and Manchester City supporters together for a free, open-air live screening right in the heart of the city. It’s a night where colours may clash, but the love for the game takes centre stage.

As the riverfront transforms into a communal football playground, fans can expect more than just 90 minutes of action. From friendly rivalry to shared celebrations (and heartbreaks), the evening is designed to recreate the magic of matchday — minus the stadium ticket.

Beyond the live screening, the atmosphere will be fuelled by fringe football games like Header Game, Table Futsal, and Juggle Ball challenges, giving fans a chance to test their skills off the pitch. StarHub subscribers aged 18 and above can also enjoy 1-for-1 Guinness pints while stocks last, alongside complimentary nachos and popcorn to keep the energy going.

Fans keen to capture the moment can swing by the OPPO Experience Booth to check out the latest devices and snap matchday memories, while those heading to or from the venue can enjoy $3 off TADA rides with the promo code STARHUBCQ, subject to limited redemptions.

Event Details

  • Date: Saturday, 17 January 2026
  • Time: Activities from 7:30pm | Live screening at 8:30pm
  • Venue: Clarke Quay Fountain Square
  • Admission: Free, open to all (seating available on a first-come, first-served basis)

No tickets. No sign-ups. Just turn up with your friends, pick a side (or sit on the fence), and soak in the atmosphere.

For fans who prefer a sofa-side experience, StarHub’s Premier+ Pass offers another way to catch the action, with live Premier League matches streamed across multiple devices in 4K UHD, complete with live stats and enhanced viewing features — starting from $40.76 per month. Because whether you’re cheering by the river or from your living room, StarHub makes sure you never miss a moment

POP MART SG This August: Spotlight on Labubu

Singapore’s cultural calendar gets a burst of playful energy as POP MART, the global powerhouse of designer toys, plants its flag at Marina Bay Sands. From August 22 to 24, Pop Toy Show Singapore 2025 (PTS) takes over Sands Expo & Convention Centre, uniting fans, artists, and brands in a spectacle that is part convention, part carnival, and entirely devoted to pop culture.

PTS Singapore 2025

Imagine 20,000 square meters transformed into a toy wonderland. PTS Singapore is not an ordinary expo; it is POP MART’s flagship festival for Southeast Asia. Visitors can expect exclusive product launches, artist meet-and-greet sessions, large-scale installations, and interactive activities designed to blur the boundaries between fandom and art.

Premium ticket holders will receive a Hirono merchandise pack, while all attendees will have access to raffled exclusives, reinforcing POP MART’s ability to combine rarity with spectacle. Beyond the exhibition halls, a 1,300-drone performance at Marina Bay on August 22 and 23 will animate the night sky with iconic POP MART characters, turning the waterfront into a moving canvas of light.

The celebration continues until August 31 with Hirono-inspired installations at Marina Bay Sands Event Square, featuring nostalgic Singaporean playground motifs.

Among the headlining artists are Lang, creator of Hirono; Agee and Yep, the designers behind Hacipupu; Bao, creator of Kubo; and Libby Frame, the imagination behind Peach Riot. Their presence demonstrates POP MART’s global strategy of blending Eastern and Western influences while elevating collectible design into cultural currency.

Godiva x Labubu’s Sweet Collab

What is better than art you can collect? Art you can eat. In a collaboration that reflects the mainstreaming of designer toys, Godiva has partnered with POP MART’s mischievous character Labubu for a dessert collection that combines indulgence with whimsy.

The line-up features three limited-edition soft serves and two specialty shakes, each layered with bold toppings such as cookie crumble, strawberry pieces, and playful Labubu decorative keepsakes. Available at Godiva boutiques across Singapore (excluding Changi Airport Terminal 3 and online), the collaboration shows that character licensing now extends beyond toys and apparel to the culinary world.

Latest Labubu Collectible

For collectors who prefer their Labubu in vinyl rather than vanilla, the Labubu Summer Ride Figure launched on August 15. Priced at S$39.90, the 10-centimeter figure captures the cheeky character mid-adventure, breezing through summer on two wheels.

Compact, vibrant, and brimming with personality, this release is another reminder of why POP MART remains one of the most dynamic players in the collectible market.

From limited-run figures to large-scale drone shows and even premium desserts, POP MART continues to redefine what it means to be in the business of play.

USS Halloween Horror Nights 13: Experience Stranger Things & Pure Terror

While casually browsing the Universal Studios Singapore (USS) app for an upcoming trip, a flash of red stopped me. A teaser for Halloween Horror Nights 13 popped up. It looked ominous and impossible to ignore.

From September 26 to November 1, 2025, USS transforms into a living nightmare with the USS Halloween Horror Nights 13. The scale is massive and the scares are crafted to feel real. This isn’t your typical theme park gimmick!

The headline attraction this year is the popular Stranger Things. The beloved Netflix series leaps off the screen and into the fog-filled streets of the park. Monsters from the Upside Down are no longer confined to your TV. They’re chasing you now!

Local horror takes the spotlight too with Singapore’s Most Haunted: Built to Horror. This haunted house reimagines a cursed neighborhood, where a dark ritual by a rogue sinseh spirals into full-blown terror. Endless corridors. Warped realities. No easy way out. I already know I’ll need to cling to my husband through this one.

The FEARground scare zone throws guests into a carnival of chaos filled with twisted clowns and deadly games. Over at Realm of Yokai, Japanese folklore spirits roam freely, and they’re anything but friendly.

Live shows dial up the adrenaline. In Dare or Die Live, you’re a contestant in the Death Devil’s macabre gameshow. Once Upon a Time…to Die plunges you into a warped fairytale world where wonder has rotted and time is your enemy.

More haunted houses and shows are still under wraps, but based on what we know, USS Halloween Horror Nights 13 is preparing something unforgettable. One thing we know for sure is the ticket pricing. Tickets start at S$68 on Klook, which is cheaper than onsite rates. Do take note of the non-peak nights, which include September 26, October 9, 16, 23, and 30. These nights are perfect for those who want shorter lines without missing the full horror.

You can get a preview of what to expect by watching this 2024 highlights video.

But be warned. Watching is easy. Walking through it takes guts!
