When and where is AFA Singapore 2026?

The festival takes place on Friday 27 to Sunday 29 November 2026 at Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre, per the organiser's site. AFA is Asia's long-running anime and pop-culture convention series, and this is its Singapore edition after AFA Thailand (30 to 31 May) and AFA Indonesia (15 to 16 August), according to The Magic Rain. Opening hours were not stated by the organiser.

Who is performing at AFA Singapore 2026?

Three music programmes have been announced. Yuki Kajiura Live celebrates the Japanese composer and musician. The AFASG26 Music Fest features KAF, Liella!, May'n and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, among others. HoneyWorks Vocal All Stars x AFA Vocaloid Night features HaKoniwaLily, kz (livetune) and Hachioji-P. Voice actor Gakuto Kajiwara is the first stage-panel guest revealed. A third-party listing on Trip.com places Kajiura on Friday, the Music Fest on Saturday, and HoneyWorks plus the Vocaloid night on Sunday, but the organiser has not confirmed the day-by-day order on its public page, so check before booking a single day.

How much are AFA Singapore 2026 tickets?

Not confirmed. The organiser's page lists three general ticket types (exhibition only, exhibition plus stage, and exhibition plus stage plus concert) but shows no 2026 prices or sale dates. Third-party listings quote Singapore dollar tiers, yet that source contradicts itself on venue and hours, so treat any price you see outside the official AFA site and its authorised sellers as unverified.

What else is on that weekend, and why does it matter?

Visitors planning around the festival can note that Marina Bay Sands hosts a free-entry Christmas village that weekend. See our guide to Christmas Together 2026 at Marina Bay Sands (https://hotinsg.com/christmas-together-2026-at-marina-bay-sands-free-entry-christmas-village-runs-27-to-29-november/). Earlier in the month, the Singapore Clay Festival (https://hotinsg.com/singapore-clay-festival-2026-6-to-8-november-at-the-chinese-cultural-centre-with-over-200-makers/) runs 6 to 8 November. Expect crowds at Suntec given the 2024 turnout, and book concert-day tickets early through official channels.
