ARTBOX is finally returning to Singapore after three long years. A lifestyle event originally from Bangkok, this popular food and retail fiesta will occupy 9,822 square metres (the equivalent of 1.3 football fields) at Singapore Expo Hall 6 instead of the Turf Club or Bayfront area this run.

Staying true to their theme of Vision, the event will encourage visitors to discover what the future holds at Fortune Town. The journey begins through the Fortune Tunnel, where they will find themselves reaching the enigmatic Fortune Town, filled with hands-on workshops and activities, appealing to the adventurous and fortune-seeking. Additionally, there will be booths that offer aura reading, henna, and Jagua body art, where visitors can even purchase crystals to take home.

Of course, no event is complete without music, and ARTBOX has invited popular local and international artistes from Cross Ratio Entertainment to perform songs on the main stage that will leave everyone grooving to the beats.
As shared by Invade’s Chief Executive Officer, Kent Teo, “ARTBOX VISION 2023 will be pulling out all the stops with various collaborations, art installations, activities, retail, and F&B experiences that will get everyone excited and entertained.”.

Co-organising with Invade this year, SGAG will be delivering an array of challenges and activities that will leave all in laughter – maybe even some in tears. Taking place on the SGAG event stage at ARTBOX, the Beam of Pain is one such challenge that will test participants’ pain thresholds and determination.

An agonising test of strength, the Beam of Pain features a 15-metre balancing beam lined with acupuncture mats. Completing this would be a daunting and impossible task for most, but the $888 cash reward lies in wait for the fastest and bravest challenger who conquers the Beam of Pain!
