Singapore Goes Gaga: A Wild, Wonderful Ride Through the Lion City

If you're flying into Singapore to witness Lady Gaga in full-blown Mayhem mode, you’re not just in for a concert—you’re stepping into a whole other dimension. The Lion City isn’t just playing host; it’s rolling out an all-access pass to a Gaga-style fever dream. From outlandish art to eco-luxe hotels, neon karaoke rooms to Michelin-starred Nyonya cuisine, Singapore has curated the ultimate playground for Little Monsters. You came for Mother Monster, but you’ll stay for the sheer spectacle of it all.

Here’s your unofficial, unapologetic guide to going full Gaga in Singapore.

MOTHER MONSTER TAKES THE STAGE

LADY GAGA: MAYHEM

Before we even talk about anything else—yes, Gaga. Four shows. One stage. National Stadium. May 18, 19, 21, and 24. This is the preview before the madness officially kicks off in July, and if you caught her “Abracadabra” x “Judas” Coachella mashup, you already know you're walking into something iconic. The setlist? A mix of old, new, and the gloriously theatrical in between. Mark your calendars. Plan your outfits. Hydrate.

CHECK-IN, MONSTER STYLE

GRAND HYATT SINGAPORE
Looking for that oasis energy after all the chaos? The newly reimagined Grand Hyatt is your green, serene escape in the heart of the city. Think lush landscaping, plush interiors, and enough understated glamour to make even a pop icon exhale.

FULLERTON BAY HOTEL
Want the VIP experience, minus the backstage drama? Fullerton Bay has skyline views for days and a “Go Gaga by the Bay” package that includes chauffeured rides to and from the stadium on all concert nights. Convenience, but make it couture.

PARKROYAL COLLECTION PICKERING
If Gaga’s environmental activism hits home, check in at PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering. This ‘hotel-in-a-garden’ is Global Sustainable Tourism Council certified and has won awards for being green—literally. Perfect for Monsters who want their stay as conscious as it is chic.

EXPERIENCE THE GAGA VIBE OFF-STAGE

IRIS VAN HERPEN: SCULPTING THE SENSES
Art, fashion, and fantasy collide at Iris van Herpen’s exhibition at the ArtScience Museum. Until August 10, wander through 140 otherworldly pieces under themes like “Water,” “Dreams,” and “Sensory Seas.” Haute couture that feels like a Gaga album in textile form.

THE SECOND SEX
Simone de Beauvoir’s words get a visual remix at this powerful exhibition featuring works by female artists from Singapore and beyond. If Gaga’s career has taught us anything, it’s that art is activism—and this show hits that note beautifully.

RED DOT DESIGN MUSEUM
A mecca for innovation and award-winning design, this museum is like a candy store for the creatively inclined. Over 500 ideas that earned a Red Dot. Just the kind of cerebral cool Lady G would applaud.

GOOD CHEER STADIUM
Need to burn off post-show adrenaline? Head to this premium darts bar where karaoke, pool, and drinks fuel the afterparty energy. Whether you’re throwing bullseyes or belting out your own encore, the night doesn’t end at the stadium.

K.STAR @ PLAZA SINGAPURA
Want to go full pop diva? This neon-lit karaoke haven invites you to grab the mic and live your “Bad Romance” fantasy. Bring the drama. And maybe a friend to film it.

FOOD FIT FOR A POP GODDESS

WONDERLAND UPSIDE DOWN
Ever wondered what fine dining in a fever dream looks like? Enter Wonderland Upside Down—where edible “cat food” and toothpaste pairings come with a side of surreal theatre. Eat. Interact. Get your fortune read by a mushroom-sitting caterpillar.

DEW BY WHITEGRASS
Minimalist plates, maximalist flavour. A more intimate offshoot of the MICHELIN-starred Whitegrass, Dew is a gem at CHIJMES. Every bite feels like a curated experience—and trust us, the Asian-inspired small plates hit hard.

CANDLENUT
The world’s first Michelin-starred Peranakan restaurant turns tradition into art. It’s soulful, it’s elevated, it’s everything you want in a heritage-rich meal. Come hungry; leave speechless.

PRADA CAFFÈ
Serving up high fashion with your flat white, the Prada Caffè at ION Orchard is where style meets sugar. Get your luxe fix with branded pastries and pristine aesthetics that turn your table into a moodboard.

C.O.T.U. (Centre of the Universe)
Why choose when you can have it all? C.O.T.U. is five experiences stacked into one skytower, from Japanese-American steaks at Ensō to smoky jazz club cocktails at The Whisper Room. A fitting tribute to Gaga’s own genre-hopping brilliance.

CARLITOS – CASA DE COMIDAS
For something a little more low-key (but no less fabulous), Carlitos is a hidden tapas treasure in Joo Chiat. The vibes? Effortless. The food? Worth shouting about.

TREAT YOURSELF, MONSTER STYLE

YUNOMORI ONSEN & SPA
Post-concert aches? Melt into Japanese onsen baths and Thai massages at Yunomori. The Signature Bath detoxes, the Silk Bath softens, and the deep tissue massage recalibrates your entire existence.

DAMAI
Tucked into the Grand Hyatt, Damai is the destination for those who take their wellness seriously. From the Halo Steam Room to the Dual Therapy Sauna, it’s the exhale you didn’t know you needed. Bonus: The Damai House offers mind-body classes to transition you back to earth after Mayhem.

Whether you’re in town for a single night of glitter and chaos or extending your trip into a full-blown pop pilgrimage, Singapore’s ready to match Gaga’s energy beat for beat. So pack your sequins, prep your playlists, and bring your boldest self. Because in this city, just like at the concert, the only rule is: go big or go home.
