10 Free Things to Do in SG This August

From waterfront sails to immersive exhibitions, the city’s free August offerings prove that access to art, history, and wellness need not come with a price tag.

SAIL INTO THE SUNSET
DBS Sailing at the Bay lets you step aboard a sailboat at Marina Bay for a 30-minute ride across stunning city views. This scenic journey also supports sailing as an inclusive and accessible sport. Slots fill quickly, so early booking thru the website is advised.

LIGHT & WATER MAGIC AT MARINA BAY
Each evening, Marina Bay transforms into a visual symphony. Spectra, a 15-minute light and water show at the Event Plaza, combines lasers, fountains and music in one striking performance. It remains a favorite way to enjoy the city skyline after dark.

F1 BTS
Titled SGP: Dare to Be Different, this exhibition explores the transformation of Singapore’s streets into a Grand Prix circuit. Engineering marvels, lighting systems and urban design are showcased through interactive and behind-the-scenes displays. The gallery is open Wednesday to Sunday with free admission.

SUNSET WATCH PARTIES
Palawan Beach hosts sunset sessions every Friday and Saturday until August 30. Visitors can enjoy beachside views, live music, and a relaxed atmosphere. As a friendly reminder: you’re encouraged to bring your own camping chairs or picnic mats for a comfortable viewing experience. It is a stress-free evening activity that captures the luxury of slowing down.

WEEKEND TOURS AT FORT SILOSO
Step into history with guided tours at Fort Siloso every Saturday and Sunday. Discover Singapore’s coastal defenses, World War II narratives and sweeping views from the skywalk. Arrive early as tours are on a first-come, first-served basis.

MEGA SPACE MOLLY
This first-of-its-kind exhibition celebrates the cult toy icon through rare archival pieces and imaginative displays. A short film by Singaporean artist Oh Jia Hao immerses visitors in SPACE MOLLY’s surreal lunar world. Admission to Mega Space Molly: Hello, Moon! is free at ION Art Gallery until August 24.

PERANAKAN LIGHTSHOW AT LOOKOUT LOOP
Traditional culture meets modern illumination at this vibrant light projection show. Peranakan motifs are reimagined through digital artistry, lighting up the heritage-themed Peranakan House until August 31. It is an ideal stop for design enthusiasts and photographers.

NEW BALANCE RUN HUB
New Balance’s Run Your Way Hub takes place from August 7 to 17, 2025, at the Visual Arts Centre in Dhoby Ghaut. This fitness pop-up invites runners to enjoy free runs, shoe trials, and expert talks led by health professionals and elite athletes. Participants can test new gear and train alongside five local run clubs. Registration is required.

LIGHT INSTALLATIONS IN THE CBD
From August 1 to September 6, light projections and digital art displays will illuminate the Bras Basah and Bugis area. These installations span from the National Museum to Stamford Walkway and serve as a prelude to the Singapore Night Festival. Night strolls just became a lot more interesting.

HISTORY COMES ALIVE AT NATIONAL MUSEUM
Singapore Odyssea: A Journey Through Time opens August 8 with an immersive, family-friendly experience covering 700 years of maritime history. The exhibit includes interactive storytelling and multi-sensory elements. Admission is free for Singaporeans and Permanent Residents.

MrBeast Breaks the Internet with His 400M Play Button

YouTube powerhouse Jimmy Donaldson, more famously known as MrBeast, has done it again. He has become the first individual content creator in the world to surpass 400 million subscribers on the platform, a record-setting achievement that has sent ripples through the internet and the entertainment industry alike.

To commemorate the milestone, YouTube CEO Neal Mohan presented MrBeast with a custom-made 400 Million Subscriber Play Button. This was no ordinary trophy. With no precedent for such a subscriber count, YouTube designed a brand new award from scratch. The result is a striking creation: a silver base with a futuristic finish, topped by a Play Button made of vivid blue crystals. It is both a tribute to MrBeast’s innovation and a bold new chapter in YouTube’s creator legacy.

As of this writing, the @MrBeast channel has amassed 417 million subscribers and published 889 videos. These range from heartwarming philanthropy to over-the-top challenges and cinematic productions that push the limits of what digital content can be. With every upload, MrBeast has turned entertainment into a force for good, inspiring millions to reshape how creators connect with audiences.

This achievement comes on the heels of several other accolades. In 2023, Time magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Two years later, in July 2025, the same magazine included him in its list of the 100 most influential digital creators. He also topped Forbes’ list of highest-earning YouTubers in 2024. As of 2025, his estimated net worth sits at a whopping US$1 billion, which is roughly S$1.2 billion.

MrBeast shared the moment on Instagram, posting a photo alongside YouTube’s CEO with the caption, “400,000,000 Subscriber Play Button! Thank you YouTube.” But despite the fanfare, reactions were mixed. Some fans voiced disappointment over the trophy’s appearance, arguing that it did not quite reflect the scale of the achievement. Comments poured in suggesting the design lacked the dramatic flair many expected for such a once-in-a-lifetime milestone.

Still, the achievement is entirely his. No other content creator has reached this level of global influence or subscriber count. Through challenge videos, charity efforts and bold moves in the creator economy, he is shaping the future of the internet.
