As part of Light to Night Singapore 2026, the dedicated Pet Weekend on 23 and 24 January offers pet owners a more thoughtful way to experience the night-time public arts festival with their pets. Held exclusively at Empress Lawn, pet-friendly programming is thoughtfully centred within a single outdoor zone, allowing pet owners to plan their visit around their pets’ comfort while the wider festival continues across the Civic District.

Presented in collaboration with Good Pet Fair, the Pet Weekend offers a relaxed and inclusive way for pet owners to experience the festival with their pets.

Where Pet Weekend Takes Place

Pet Weekend activities and experiences are centred at Empress Lawn.

While Light to Night Singapore unfolds across multiple locations, Empress Lawn serves as the main reference point for pet owners during the Pet Weekend. Having all pet-friendly elements in one location makes it easier to navigate the festival without needing to move through busier or higher-energy areas.

What’s Different During Pet Weekend

During the Pet Weekend, programming at Empress Lawn is adjusted with pets in mind. Louder performances are scheduled away from this area, allowing Empress Lawn to maintain a calmer sound environment throughout the evening.

This gives pet owners flexibility to plan their visit around their pets’ comfort, whether staying within the calmer Empress Lawn area or exploring other parts of the festival.

Pet-Focused Activities and Experiences

Alongside the wider festival experience, the Pet Weekend introduces a set of pet-specific activities available on a walk-in, on-site basis, while slots or stock last.

Note: All Pet Weekend redemptions take place at the tentage labelled “Paw Kits / Keepsake Workshop”.

Treat Drop Sessions (Free)

Hourly treat drop sessions take place from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

Each hour, 20 packets of freeze-dried treats are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, comprising 15 dog treats and 5 cat treats. All treat redemptions take place at the Keepsake Experience tentage.

In addition, the first 50 visitors each evening may receive a voucher for complimentary pet ice cream. Vouchers must be collected from the Keepsake Experience tentage and redeemed separately at the PetCube booth. The pet ice cream is specially crafted with dog-friendly ingredients.

Keepsake Experience (Ticketed)

The Paw Print Keepsake Experience allows pet owners to create a personalised paw print memento together with their pet.

There are 48 sessions available per day, with 8 sessions running at the following times: 5:00 PM, 5:55 PM, 6:50 PM, 7:45 PM, 8:40 PM, and 9:35 PM. Each session is valid for one person accompanied by one pet.

Tickets are priced at $20 per session. Of the total daily allocation, 25 slots are reserved for visitors who purchase Paw Kits, with the remaining 23 tickets available for individual purchase. All tickets are sold on-site on a first-come, first-served basis.

Paw Kits (Limited-Edition Merchandise)

A limited number of Paw Kits will be available for purchase on-site each day.

A total of 25 Paw Kits will be sold daily at $30 per kit. Each Paw Kit includes access to one Paw Print Keepsake Experience for one person.

Each Paw Kit comes in a tote bag and includes:
• Nug’s Nibbles (20g chicken and pork jerky)
• Woofgang Bark bacarons in mixed proteins
• A collapsible bowl for pets
• A custom Light to Night hand fan

All Paw Kits are sold on a walk-in, on-site basis, on a first-come, first-served basis, while stocks last.
