Cheers to the freaking weekend! We’ll drink to that.
Singapore – Flower frenzy
When: Until April 29 (Orchid Show) and May 13 (Tulipmania)
Where: Singapore Botanic Gardens and Gardens by the Bay
What: Make your weekend a flower-filled one. Start early at the Singapore Botanic Gardens to catch the last few days of the Singapore Garden Festival Orchid Show – it sounds dull, but the floral displays are incredible, as are the orchids on sale, and if you’re really inspired you can attend a talk. Then head over to Gardens by the Bay for Tulipmania for an explosion of tulips and the chance to win flights to Amsterdam.
Kuala Lumpur – Le French Festival
When: Until May 20
Where: Various locations
What: This is Le French Festival‘s last week in KL before heading over to Penang, so catch the Lysistrata gig, take in a cooking class with chef Nathalie Arbefeuille, or one of the many French films showing at GSC cinemas.
Sydney – Sydney Comedy Festival
When: Until May 20
Where: Various locations
What: Get stuck into a month of comedy. Sydney Comedy Festival is in its 14th year and shows no signs of slowing down, with hefty lineup of Australian and international comedians (Kitty Flanagan! Ross Noble! Shawn Wayans!)
Hong Kong – Ai Weiwei: Refutation
When: Until April 28
Where: Tang Contemporary Art Hong Kong
What: Your last chance to catch Ai Weiwei’s latest exhibition, a moving collection of images and installations inspired by the refugee crisis.
