Rain, Ekin Cheng, Hins Cheung and other music icons brought on the festival energy as part of Grand Prix™ Season Singapore 2025

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 October 2025 – JAM OFF 2025 roared back into Singapore last weekend, igniting Resorts World Sentosa with two unforgettable days of star-studded performances, dynamic competitions, and festival cheer. Organised by Destinations Network Tourism and Leisure Marketing Ltd., a subsidiary of Shun Tak Holdings Ltd., and supported by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) as part of Grand Prix™ Season Singapore (GPSS), the festival delivered on its promise of music, culture, and creativity in the ultimate prelude to the Singapore race weekend.

A Star-Studded Weekend at Universal Studios Singapore

For the first time ever, Universal Studios Singapore transformed into a one-of-a-kind open-air concert arena. Thousands of fans stood amid the New York Street and Sci-Fi City zones to watch world-class performances up close – a dynamic festival vibe unlike any stadium show which has been hosted in Singapore before.

South Korean megastar Rain brought his trademark charisma to the stage, while Hong Kong, China, icons Ekin Cheng, Hins Cheung, Stephy Tang, JC, and Nowhere Boys lit up the park with back-to-back hits. For Stephy Tang, JC and Nowhere Boys, this marked their first-ever performances in Singapore, thrilling both local and regional fans.

“JAM OFF 2025 was about more than just music. It was about bringing communities together through shared energy, creativity, and culture. To see fans from across the region celebrate with us in Singapore has been incredible,” said Evette Chan, Event Director of Destinations Network Tourism and Leisure Marketing Ltd.

Another hallmark of JAM OFF is the unique proximity between artistes and audiences, giving festival-goers a rare chance to be up close with their favourite stars in an immersive environment.

Talent on Stage: VOICE and BEATS finals

Daytime highlights at Palawan Green shone a spotlight on JAM OFF’s signature talent programmes. On 27 September, JAM OFF VOICE returned with finalists showcasing their vocal prowess before an all-star judging panel comprising Singaporean beatboxer Dharni Ng, Hong Kong, China, soprano Hedy Chan, and Malaysian-born entertainer Allan Moo. This year’s awards were presented for two categories — Judges’ Winner and Live Vote Winner. Dawn Yap, who performed “In The Kitchen” by Reneé Rapp, took home the Judges’ Winner title, while Isaac Mak, who performed “It Will Rain” by Bruno Mars, was voted Live Votes Winner by the crowd. Stephy Tang, one of JAM OFF’s headliners, made a special appearance to present the winners with cash prizes, festival perks, and invitations to perform on future JAM OFF stages.

On 28 September, JAM OFF BEATS delivered a high-octane showcase of Breaking 2vs2 and All Style 2vs2 battles, with top regional crews bringing technical skill and creativity to the stage. In the Breaking category, ML emerged as Champion, with Illstack taking the Runner-up spot. In the All Style category, BRC claimed the Champion title, while OMADA impressed as Runner-up. All winning teams walked away with cash prizes, trophies, and flights to the next JAM OFF BEATS showcase in Hong Kong, China.

Festival Village: food, retail and race-themed fun

Palawan Green was transformed into a lively festival village, offering curated food and beverage pop-ups, retail stalls and interactive games. Highlights included redemptions and activations from Frozt and The Ice Cream & Cookie Co., official JAM OFF merchandise, and pop-ups from Sentosa Shop, Retro Crates, Takachya and Wow Fashion Jewellery. Festivalgoers also enjoyed race-themed games with prize redemptions including JAM OFF water bottles, cups, socks and limited-edition stickers.

As the lights dimmed on an unforgettable weekend, JAM OFF 2025 affirmed its place as one of Asia’s most distinctive music and lifestyle festivals, seamlessly uniting global icons, rising stars, and audiences from across the region. By blending headline performances, open competitions, and festival experiences that captured the spirit of Grand Prix™ Season Singapore, JAM OFF has not only energised the city in the lead-up to race week but also set a new benchmark for cultural celebration in the region. With its dynamic mix of talent, creativity, and community, JAM OFF continues to shape itself as a must-attend annual destination where music meets movement, and where Asia’s next generation of stars rise on the international stage.

Evette Chan added: “This year, the energy from the crowds, the passion of our performers, and the unique buzz of Grand Prix™ Season Singapore came together to create something truly extraordinary. We are already looking forward to taking JAM OFF to even greater heights in the years to come.”

Celebrate, Rest, and Recharge This Raya With XIXILI’s Sleepwear Collection

Published

on

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 March 2026 – Comfort is set to be a defining theme for Raya 2026, and it extends well beyond the festive outfit. XIXILI is bringing that same ease into the downtime between celebrations, with sleepwear designed for the hours when women can finally catch their breath, rest, and simply be.

The Reality of the Raya Rush

The lead-up to Raya is a whirlwind of grocery runs, deep cleaning, and late nights in the kitchen. By the time the first open house begins, most women have already put in an incredible amount of effort for their families. The quiet moments in between are not just a break. They are earned.

XIXILI’s pajamas are made for those moments. Easy to move in, soft enough to wear through the night, and the kind of pieces that make coming home feel like something to look forward to. Designed to fit a wide range of body types, every woman can find something that feels as good as it looks.

“Raya is everything. The food, the family, the laughter. And at the end of it all, she deserves to rest just as well as she celebrated,” says Tara Tan, Marketing Director at XIXILI.

Comfort That Carries Through the Season

Raya may bring the occasion, but the shift happening in Malaysian wardrobes goes further than that. Women are increasingly treating sleepwear as a considered part of their self-care, not just something to change into before bed.

“We often talk about the joy of gathering, but we rarely talk about the exhaustion that comes with it,” Tara Tan adds. “Our goal for Raya 2026 is to ensure that when the last guest leaves, every woman has a high-quality piece of loungewear to retreat into. It is about honouring the work she does by giving her the rest she deserves.”

Quality loungewear for the wind-down, the slow morning, and every quiet moment in between has become one of the most considered purchases a woman makes this season.

Made to Be Worn, Not Just Owned

Good sleepwear should not sit tucked away at the back of a drawer. It should be the first thing she reaches for at the end of a long day, worn in and looked forward to. XIXILI’s range is built for exactly that, styles that settle naturally into her routine and carry her well beyond the festive season.

The full sleepwear collection is available online and at XIXILI boutiques nationwide. To shop the range, visit www.xixili-intimates.com.Hashtag: #XIXILI

  • North-East Institute of Population and Social Development: Joint research endeavours, professional development programmes, and meaningful academia-industry partnerships to generate evidence-based solutions, build capabilities, and promote active ageing ecosystems that benefit individuals and communities.

Professor Tan Tai Yong, President of SUSS, said, “China is an important partner for SUSS as we expand opportunities for our students and strengthen collaboration across Asia. The launch of the Success Academy in Chongqing allows us to work more closely with universities, industry and community partners in Western and Northeast China, and to deliver applied, practice-oriented education that responds to real-world needs. Our partnership with Raffles Young Academy reflects our shared commitment to developing future-ready talent and supporting professional growth across the region.”

Mr. Samuel Ng, Executive Chairman, RYA, said, “Our collaboration with the Singapore University of Social Sciences reflects a shared belief in applied, practice-oriented education and in preparing students and enterprises to navigate an increasingly complex and interconnected world. Chongqing’s strategic position as a gateway to Western China and a hub for industry and connectivity makes it an ideal location for immersive, industry-linked education. This partnership represents a long-term commitment to building enduring bridges between students and industry, between academia and practice, and between Singapore and China.”
