About SG Culture Pass

The SG Culture Pass (opens in new tab) is an initiative by Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY) that encourages Singapore Citizens to support local arts and heritage programmes. Citizens aged 18 and above in 2025 received S$100 in credits on 1 September 2025. These credits can be used to offset ticket purchases for eligible local arts and heritage activities offered by authorised ticketing partners, as well as purchases of Singapore Literature (Sing Lit) books. Credits are valid until 31 December 2028. 

Benefits of joining the SG Culture Pass 

Getting your events approved under the SG Culture Pass offers several advantages: 

Greater visibility: Your events will reach a wider audience actively looking to use their SG Culture Pass credits. 

More attendees: Increased accessibility helps you attract more participants, build mindshare, and deepen engagement with the arts community. 

Support for local arts: Your participation contributes to the growth and sustainability of Singapore's arts sector. 

Promotional opportunities: Supported events will be listed on sgculturepass.gov.sg (opens in new tab), and selected events may be featured on Catch.sg (opens in new tab), the official marketing partner.
