SINGAPORE: Now that 2024 has formally begun, it is time to pull out your new, elegant daily planner and pencil in your plans for the year. Or for the first seven days, anyway.

However, in case you don’t have any plans for January yet, you could consider attending the following events that are slated to happen in Singapore this week:

555 Thai Music Festival 2024

A-ONE Production House Singapore organizes the music festival. It will feature a lineup of all Thai artists, including some of the top names in the Thai music industry, such as PP Krit, Billkin, girl group 4EVE, and rock band Potato.

Several Thai food brands, including Folks Collective and Talad Thai Banana, will also be at the celebration.
