Overview

You've celebrated one new year, with 2019 already in full swing. Soon, it's time to celebrate another. Come February, the lunar calendar will tick over, marking the year of the pig — and the Treasury is commemorating the occasion with food, booze, entertainment, markets and a shindig in its lantern-filled courtyard.

Also on the agenda at the Year of the Pig Night Markets: red lotus cocktails upon arrival, Red Lantern and Fat Noodle's Luke Nguyen putting on a live cooking demonstration, lion dances, pop-up bars and a stack of bites to eat. Best arrive hungry, as you'll be tucking into hawker-style dishes such as mini beef pho, Vietnamese chicken salad, steamed bao, dumplings and sweet pandan brulee.

Happening from 5–8pm on Friday, February 1, this is a ticketed affair costing $75 per person, but that includes your food and drinks. And while the new year doesn't officially kick off until a few days later, this shindig is all about getting into the spirit early, obviously.
