From 10 June to 9 July, the second edition of Zentosa LiveWELL Festival will transform Sentosa into an island retreat with over 250 activities across five holistic pillars of wellness for festival-goers.
Leveraging Sentosa’s unique island vibes, Zentosa LiveWELL Festival will offer a range of experiences all across Sentosa Island, suitable for both Singapore residents and guests from around the region looking for a novel approach to wellness in an island-city getaway. Organised by Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC), and in collaboration with the Wellness Festival Singapore, the festival also empowers guests to care for their mental health, even as more Singaporean residents are willing to seek help for their mental wellbeing.
The festivities will kick off on 10 June with a specially organised Discovery Walk, where you can discover more about Sentosa’s coastal and natural history as they embark on the walk with plenty of insightful pit stops along the way.
Flagging off the Discovery Walk is Korean mixed martial artist and judoka Mr Choo Sung-hoon (better known by his nickname ‘Sexyama’), who recently appeared on the reality competition series, ‘Physical: 100’. As an exclusive privilege, Sentosa Islander members can register for one of 100 slots for an exclusive meet-and-greet session with him.
Taking centre stage is the Zentosa LiveWELL Festival Village, housed at Southside from 10 to 25 June, leveraging the venue’s picturesque bayfront views as a serene yet vibrant backdrop.
Aside from the ongoing activities and workouts, you can look forward to health-related talks, healthy food and beverage (F&B) options, and a range of free music programmes including Jazz by the Beach. SDC has also partnered with The Body Shop Singapore which will be conducting yoga sessions at the Festival Village featuring instructor Brandon Chong.
You can curate your own wellness journey from across more than 250 activities at the festival, categorised into five key pillars, with mental wellness and the positive effects of strong lasting relationships as new focus areas this year.
FeelWELL will nurture one’s mind and soul through a transformative art installation by Kult Studio & Gallery. The installation ‘The Way to Wellness’ will be exhibited across three tunnels of Fort Siloso and brings guests on a journey to inner peace through visual, auditory, and tactile cues.
The installation is deliberately interactive, drawing you in to evoke a sense of introspection and reflection, leaving you renewed and reinvigorated at the end of your journey. Throughout each tunnel, visitors will get to experience the marvels of Charlene Shepherdson’s literary works and appreciate the series of narratives and poems created by the artist.
You can also pledge your commitment to better your own wellness journey by inking your pledge on a coloured ribbon which will be streamed together by local artists into a temporary art installation at the Fort Siloso Skywalk.
Aside from the art installation, you can also experience the healing power of plants through hands-on therapeutic horticulture workshops, among other activities that nurture your emotional and mental wellness.
BondWELL will enable you to immerse in the welcoming environment and reconnect with loved ones. Stroll through the verdant surroundings of the Imbiah Trail, recharge through the healing and sensorial qualities of the forest via the Therapeutic Forest Walk @ Imbiah Trail, while gaining a deeper appreciation of the natural surroundings.
Additionally, you can ‘digitally detox’ from your devices and reconnect with family and friends through nostalgic and traditional games such as five-stones, and pick-up sticks at the Imbiah Forecourt located just outside of Madame Tussauds Singapore.
The key pillars of physical wellness (PlayWELL), healthy eating (EatWELL), and mindful resting (RestWELL) will return. Fitness and mindfulness come together in these curated experiences designed to bring you closer to your own physical well-being goals.
One example is the enhanced True Fitness Hour, in partnership with True Fitness, where workout buffs can register for sessions with yoga instructor Yenny Christine and pick up tips to enhance their spinal flexibility or learn about callisthenics from celebrity coach Jacob Manning. Other True Fitness Hour sessions include Fight Do, a high-intensity class combining boxing and martial arts, as well as KPopX Fitness and Zumba.
For those looking to take their workouts up a notch, sign up for classes such as Silent Kickboxing, a workout session with music and vocals beamed directly to an individual’s headset, Beach Pop Cycle, an energetic cycling session with a groovy upbeat soundtrack, or WeBarre Stretch & Technique, a mix of floor Barre moves to achieve deep, active stretches.
Meanwhile, families can also register for another fun walk, Pa Pa Zou, on 2 July, a community initiative founded by Jack Neo that aims to inspire Singaporeans to embrace an active lifestyle by walking alongside local artists and celebrities.
Further exemplifying the holistic One Sentosa experience, there will also be a range of health and wellness offerings by businesses on Sentosa as well as event partners and collaborators during this period. These include:
Tickets for activities and experiences at Zentosa LiveWELL Festival Village are priced at either $10 or $15 per session and will go on sale from Thu 18 May onwards.
Sentosa Islander members can also enjoy a 20% discount on their bookings.
