Family fun takes center stage at HSBC SVNS Singapore 2026
HSBC SVNS Singapore 2026 is shaping up to be more than just a rugby spectacle, as the two-day event transforms The Kallang into a family-focused destination designed for all ages. Running from January 31 to February 1, the tournament blends elite rugby with entertainment zones that invite families to stay, explore, and relax between matches.
While the on-field action remains the centerpiece, the surrounding stadium precinct becomes a space where parents and children can move at their own pace. From interactive play areas to food hubs and shaded hangouts, the weekend is built to balance sport with comfort and accessibility for families attending together.

A playground atmosphere beyond the pitch
Throughout the weekend, ticket holders gain access to the Family SVNS fan zone, where the Promenade turns into a lively activity hub. Character meet-and-greets, stage shows, kids’ workshops, and family-friendly dining options are spread across the venue to keep energy high even for first-time rugby fans.
Younger fans can visit the Kids’ Hangout near Gate 22, where cartoon screenings, performances, and photo opportunities with Peppa Pig, George, My Little Pony, and Optimus Prime are scheduled throughout the day. Hands-on activities such as NERF games and PLAY-DOH stations add to the all-day entertainment, while older children can take a break at PS5 gaming zones located at Gates 4 and 5.
Designed with parents in mind
The family-first approach extends beyond kids’ entertainment, with designated drop-off areas allowing parents to return to the stands knowing their children are supervised by trained minders. Activities like face painting and colouring keep children engaged for up to two hours on a first-come, first-served basis, with stroller parking available nearby.
Dining options also cater to families looking for easy, quality meals between matches. Meatsmith and Burnt Ends Bakery, located at Gates 2 and 3, serve crowd favourites such as slow-smoked beef brisket, cheeseburgers, pastries, filled doughnuts, and coffee, ensuring food choices match the relaxed, inclusive tone of the event.
Beyond the fan zones, families are encouraged to experience rugby firsthand through Touch Carnival and 3v2 Touch Rugby sessions at Gates 4 and 5. The activities aim to introduce the sport’s core values—teamwork, respect, and fun—while keeping participation light and welcoming for newcomers.
Tickets for HSBC SVNS Singapore 2026 are now available, with youth passes priced from $69, adult tickets from $99, and family or group packages starting at $49.80 per person for groups of five.
