Welcome to Singapore’s most popular and prestigious shopping event.
Known as a platform for showcasing the best of independent design in Singapore, Boutiques holds 3-day events twice a year at the centrally located F1 Pit Building.
Our events are highly anticipated among both local shoppers and international tourists as our community works hard to launch exclusive collections at Boutiques.
On top of the opportunity to more widely and deeply connect with customers, brands are also exposed to trade organisations and international retail buyers.
