Istana Open House - Deepavali | 9 Nov 2025

Overview 

The Istana Open House is a special occasion for visitors to explore the grounds of the Istana and experience the richness of Singapore’s cultural heritage. Held in conjunction with selected public holidays, it is a vibrant celebration of unity, diversity, and community spirit.

As part of the President’s Challenge, these events go beyond the festivities. Visitors enjoy performances, family activities, and interactive booths, while also discovering the meaningful causes supported by the President’s Challenge. All proceeds from the entrance into the Istana grounds, tours, and the Istana and President’s Challenge merchandise booth will support our beneficiaries.  

Come for the celebration and leave knowing you have been part of something larger.
