Budak Pantai – five very Singaporean males coming together year after year to fulfill their hearts’ desire: to make music. Offering tongue-in-cheek versions and mash-ups of perennial favourites and popular hits through acoustic accompaniment mixed with vocal improvisations, the musically creative quintet can turn anything into song.

All they need is an appreciative audience – and lots of food. No matter how much food is in their faces, they will not barf.

And speaking of BARF, it also happens to be the name of an inaugural carnival that showcases all the wonderful things that make Singapore, well, Singapore. From yummilicious chilli crab and Milo dinosaurs to talented local artistes.

BARF promises a night of good food, great music and ginormous fun.

And BARF will not be purely Singaporean if visitors do not get to shop, so yes, one-of-a-kind merchandise will be for sale during the one night of food, games, family-friendly entertainment, ending on a high with a 90-minute Budak Pantai concert.

Embrace your Singaporean roots at BARF and be grateful for the charm of our sunny shore and its people.
