F1 Singapore Grand Prix 2025: A Star-Studded Weekend of Music and Motorsport
The Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2025, happening from 3-5 October 2025, promises not only high-octane racing under the city's dazzling skyline but also a blockbuster entertainment lineup that rivals global music festivals. With multiple stages across the Marina Bay Street Circuit, this year's concert roster is stacked with legendary icons, rock royalty, and K-pop superstars—making it one of the most anticipated weekends of the year.
Saturday, October 4 – Rock Royalty Takes the Stage
Foo Fighters, the Grammy-winning rock band known for hits like Everlong, Best of You, and The Pretender, will headline the Padang Stage in Zone 4. Their return to Singapore after eight years is set to electrify fans with their signature anthemic sound and raw energy.
Joining them on Saturday is Alan Walker, the Norwegian DJ-producer behind global EDM hits like Faded and Alone. Fresh off his Walkerworld Tour, Walker will bring his melodic soundscapes and festival-ready beats to the same Padang Stage, promising a night of sonic contrast and dancefloor euphoria.
Over at the Wharf Stage in Zone 1, Crowded House—the iconic Australian-New Zealand band—will serenade fans with timeless classics like Don't Dream It's Over and Weather With You. Their rich harmonies and heartfelt lyrics offer a soulful counterpoint to the high-energy acts elsewhere.
Friday, October 3 – K-pop Power Hour
K-pop fans are in for a treat as CL, the fierce and stylish former leader of 2NE1, takes the Padang Stage. Known for hits like The Baddest Female and Hello Bitches, CL's solo career has cemented her as a global icon of Korean pop and fashion.
She'll be sharing the spotlight with G-DRAGON, the charismatic frontman of BIGBANG, whose genre-defying music and magnetic stage presence have earned him a cult following worldwide. Together, they'll kick off the weekend with a high-energy showcase of Korean artistry and swagger.
Sunday, October 5 – A Legendary Finale
Closing out the weekend is none other than Elton John, performing at the Padang Stage in Zone 4. Two years after wrapping up his record-breaking Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, the EGOT-winning icon returns for a one-night-only performance featuring beloved hits like Rocket Man, Tiny Dancer, and Your Song. It's a rare chance to witness one of music's greatest legends live in Singapore.
Meanwhile, The Smashing Pumpkins will take over the Wharf Stage in Zone 1. Known for their dreamy yet heavy sound, the alternative rock band will perform tracks from their classic albums Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, as well as new material from their 2024 release.
