SCCC is a major hub for showcasing and promoting Chinese culture in Singapore, designed to connect people with traditional and modern aspects of Chinese Singaporean identity.

Located at Shenton Way near Tanjong Pagar, the SCCC building itself is a striking mix of contemporary design with subtle cultural influences.

The centre offers a wide range of exhibitions, performances, talks, and workshops highlighting everything from traditional festivals and dialects to contemporary music, film, and visual arts.

A permanent exhibition, “SINGAPO 人: Discovering Chinese Singaporean Culture,” walks visitors through the unique blend of customs, food, values, and language that shape Chinese life in Singapore.

Festivals like Lunar New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Qing Ming are often celebrated with special events at SCCC—think lion dances, lantern making, calligraphy demonstrations, and festive markets.

SCCC also partners with schools and community groups to run educational programmes and outreach projects that promote greater understanding among all Singaporeans.

Visitors can enjoy a peaceful rooftop space overlooking the city or grab a bite at one of the centre’s cafes.

It’s just minutes from Tanjong Pagar MRT; multiple bus routes stop right outside the building.

Whether here you’re curious about your roots, love cultural events, or just want a fun day out with friends and family, the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre offers a welcoming space to experience both old and new facets of local culture.
