Monstrous Fun! returns from 30 May to 1 June 2025 with its biggest edition yet—featuring Singapore’s first-ever Monster Parade, interactive arts experiences, musical performances, and hands-on workshops for kids and families.
Part of Civic District Children’s Season 2025, this three-day festival transforms The Arts House at The Old Parliament into a vibrant playground of creativity and literary exploration for children aged five and up.
