Pulau Ubin holds so many treasures with its rich cultural and natural heritage. Pesta Ubin 2016 will be held from 14 May to 12 June 2016. This is the first time the festival, formerly known as Ubin Day, has been extended to a month long festival, packed with many activities focusing on nature, wildlife, culture, and its unique kampong lifestyle. This festival is aimed at appreciating this underrated little island.



In conjunction with Pesta Ubin 2016, Treasure SG organizes two contests #TreasureUbin Treasure Hunt and #TheUbinWay Photo Contest. Treasure SG is a nationwide treasure hunt initiated by Joseph Sng initially to commemorate SG50.
