FREE DATE IDEA ✨
Apparently SG60 Heart&Soul Experience is THE 🇸🇬6️⃣0️⃣ flagship event but Zee has been living under a rock..
So Felly had to bring Zee out to see what’s going on in town!
Orchard Library has converted into a multi-sensory & immersive experience telling stories of our past AND co-designing stories of the future.
The set-up is quite extensive, not what we had expected from a library location. Think:
📱individual devices as our “guide”
🎧 individual headphones for an auditory experience
🖥️ multiple LED screens as a visual treat, including a screen dedicated to your avatar telling your story
Bring family and friends for this special #sg60 showcase right in town - allow for ~60min for a full experience
📍Orchard Library @ Orchard Gateway
💰 Admission is FREE
✨ Book at www.heartandsoul.gov.sg - walk-in is close to impossible
⏱️ Be on time! We saw the team reject a family as they were more than 10min late
Let us know what you think about the experience!
Attending the SG60 Heart & Soul Experience at Orchard Library is truly a unique way to connect with Singapore’s heritage and future stories. I found the use of individual devices and headphones really immersive, making each visitor feel like part of the storytelling. Customizing your avatar adds a personal touch, reflecting your own connection to the narratives presented. The exhibition area beautifully blends technology with history, and the visuals on multiple LED screens bring the stories to life. It’s a great outing for families or groups of friends who want to experience something interactive and thought-provoking together. One tip I found useful is to arrive on time, as the organizers are strict about punctuality to ensure everyone gets the full experience without delays. Since admission is free but booking is required, I recommend securing your spot early online, as walk-ins might not be allowed. Beyond the main exhibition, the Heart & Soul showcase reminded me how community and connection remain at the core of Singapore’s identity. The audio messages and future-looking installations spark reflection on both personal and collective memories. It’s inspiring to see how storytelling can evolve with technology while honoring the past. If you’re interested in exploring meaningful Singaporean stories in an innovative setting, this event is worth making time for during your free hours. Also, keep an eye out for the lush gardens and community vibes mentioned in some of the displays—connecting with neighbors and traditions continues to be celebrated here. All in all, the SG60 Heart & Soul Experience offers a heartfelt, multi-dimensional journey that you won’t want to miss during this flagship SG60 celebration.
