The Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre is an important cultural destination in downtown Singapore, offering programmes and experiences for all ages and communities to enjoy.

Located at Shenton Way near Tanjong Pagar, the SCCC building itself is a striking mix of contemporary design with subtle cultural influences.

Its calendar is packed with art exhibitions, music performances, cultural carnivals, film screenings, and creative workshops—many of them free or family-friendly.

The “SINGAPO 人” exhibition uses multimedia displays and artefacts to tell the story of how Chinese Singaporean culture has changed and adapted through generations.

Festivals like Lunar New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Qing Ming are often celebrated with special here events at SCCC—think lion dances, lantern making, calligraphy demonstrations, and festive markets.

They offer learning journeys for students, talks on heritage topics, and support for creative projects that celebrate multicultural Singapore.

Visitors can enjoy a peaceful rooftop space overlooking the city or grab a bite at one of the centre’s cafes.

Getting there is easy via Tanjong Pagar MRT (Exit F), with plenty of buses serving the area as well.

For anyone keen to understand how tradition meets modern life in Singapore’s Chinese community, this centre is a must-see.
