Summary
Ravi Guna begins the night asking what happened to Singapore’s once-buzzy nightlife — and whether he’s simply outgrown it. Instead of chasing clubs and parties, he follows a different trail: communities that come alive after dark, built on connection, play and shared passion. His night starts in the CBD at Glorious Trivia Night, where quizmaster Cayenne Chin reveals how weekly bar trivia has become a social ritual. But even here, post-COVID habits are reshaping nightlife, with crowds arriving earlier — and heading home sooner.
From there, Ravi heads to a field in Thomson, where “kite flying” has taken on a high-tech twist. Remote-control LED kites light up the night sky — until overconfidence gets the better of him, and one comes crashing down. On Sentosa, a quiet walkway transforms into a monthly spectacle as strangers gather for a K-pop Random Play Dance. Ravi jumps in, learning the moves and feeling the energy of a community brought together by love of dancing. He ends the night pushing his limits at Singapore’s largest open-air gym with a tight-knit strongman community, taking on brutal challenges like the farmer’s walk and the Hercules hold — a quiet proof that Singapore’s nightlife hasn’t disappeared, but simply evolved.
