Other-nationality general admission S$20; All Access S$30. Eligibility-based free entry and concessions apply.**\n\n02 Time to allow **2–3 hours for art and architecture; about 1 hour for Building Highlights alone.**\n\n03 Pace **Easy walking; follow accessible routes where needed.**\n\n04 Best for **Art museum · Architecture · Culture**\n\n![National Gallery Singapore]()\n\n01 The experience\n\n### What to expect.\n\nMake this your main Singapore art visit. The Gallery connects City Hall and the former Supreme Court, giving you grand civic rooms, contemporary museum spaces and a substantial collection visit in one morning.\n\n### Choose art, architecture or both\n\nFor art, begin with **Singapore Stories: Pathways and Detours in Art** in the DBS Singapore Gallery. Paintings, installations and visual culture explore changing ideas of home, work and identity from the 19th century onwards. General admission covers this exhibition.\n\nFor architecture, join **Building Highlights**, a free tour of about an hour. It connects the buildings’ history with the transformation that made them a gallery. An admission ticket is not required, but you must register early and places are limited.\n\nAllow two to three hours if you want both. On 9–11 October, arrive at opening and use the Coleman Street entrance. The UOB Southeast Asia Gallery is closed until late 2027, so build your visit around the exhibitions that are open.\n\n02\n\nLook closer\n\n### Highlights worth your time.\n\n The strongest reasons to include this place in your plans.\n\n01\n\n#### Singapore Stories\n\nExplore the DBS Singapore Gallery’s story of Singapore through art. The display brings together established figures such as Georgette Chen and Liu Kang with different media and perspectives, allowing a deeper sense of the city than a quick landmark photograph.\n\n02\n\n#### The buildings behind the art\n\nBuilding Highlights takes in spaces such as the City Hall Chamber, Singapore Courtyard and former Supreme Court holding cells, according to the day’s route. Register for the tour rather than assuming you can enter every room independently.\n\n03\n\n#### A shorter free visit\n\nMake the architecture tour your main experience if you have an hour and do not want a full art visit. The Gallery also lists non-ticketed areas, including the ArchiGallery, but opening and access can vary by space. Ask visitor services for a focused route.\n\n04\n\n#### Keep the weekend workable\n\nAn opening-time visit gives you an indoor cultural morning before the evening racing. Roof decks and windows are not a substitute for a race ticket or a guaranteed viewing position.\n\n03 / Before you go\n\n### Plan your visit\n\nPair Singapore art with the architecture of City Hall and the former Supreme Court.\n\n#### Choose your visit\n\nBuilding Highlights tour\n\nFree · about 1 hour\n\nGeneral admission · other nationalities\n\nS$20 · Singapore Stories and selected exhibitions\n\nAll Access · other nationalities\n\nS$30 · all available exhibitions\n\nSingapore citizens and permanent residents receive free general admission.
