Organised by Arts House Limited (AHL) and commissioned by the National Arts Council (NAC), the annual Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA 2025) returns from 16 May to 1 June with the theme More Than Ever. As Singapore celebrates its 60th year of independence, this milestone edition of the Festival spotlights the nation’s cultural vitality and boldness in defining its present and its vision for the future. 

Unveiled by Festival Director Natalie Hennedige at Fort Canning Centre this afternoon, SIFA 2025 will present a record 15 commissioned local works—the highest number in SIFA’s history—including two works-in-progress first introduced at SIFA 2024. The Festival features the SIFA Pavilion at Bedok Town Square, a transient arts space in the heart of the community, hosting multiple works charged with multidisciplinary artistic expression, bringing performance and the public together. Returning this year is Little SIFA at Empress Lawn, situated at Empress Lawn, featuring works by Singapore artists, including an installation encompassing performance, and specially designed arts experiences for families and children.

Further elevating its international presence, the Festival continues to present a compelling line-up of invited presentations, and a new international commission that offers diverse artistic perspectives through high-quality productions. 

With a distinct line-up, the Festival is designed to make the arts accessible to audiences of all ages and communities, affirming Singapore’s identity as a vibrant creative city for the arts.

由Arts House Limited主办、National Arts Council 委办的2025年新加坡国际艺术节（SIFA 2025）以 “More Than Ever” 为主题，将于2025年5月16日至6月1日重磅回归。适逢新加坡庆祝独立60周年，本届艺术节将通过这一里程碑式的盛会，彰显我国的文化活力与果敢精神，展现对当下与未来的思考。

艺术总监 Natalie Hennedige 今日下午在Fort Canning Centre 揭晓了艺术节亮点。SIFA 2025将呈现15部本地委约作品（创历届之最），其中包括两部曾在SIFA 2024亮相的”进行中作品”。本届艺术节特别打造位于勿洛广场的”SIFA展亭”——一个融入社区核心的临时艺术空间，通过多元艺术形式呈现多组跨界作品，拉近公众与表演艺术的距离。去年广受欢迎的 “Little SIFA” 也将重返皇后草坪，带来新加坡艺术家创作的表演装置及专为家庭与儿童设计的艺术体验。

为提升国际影响力，艺术节持续推出来自海外的精彩节目，并推出全新国际委约作品，通过高质量制作呈现多元艺术视角。

通过精心策划的节目单，艺术节致力于让各年龄层与社区的观众都能接触艺术，进一步巩固新加坡作为活力创意之城的文化定位。
