Background
BigBang’s XX: Cosmos world tour includes a highly anticipated Singapore leg, the first in a decade, attracting fans from across the region. The concerts are scheduled for Oct 17‑18 at the National Stadium, a major live‑event venue in Kallang.
Singapore is currently experiencing a haze episode with 24‑hour PSI readings in the “very unhealthy” range (over 200 in central, eastern and western areas). The government and event organisers monitor air quality closely, and venues have a haze management policy that can halt events if PSI exceeds 300.
Questions people ask
Will the BigBang concerts be cancelled because of the haze?
The venue’s policy states that events are suspended only if the 24‑hour PSI goes above 300; current readings are below that threshold.
What should I bring to the concert?
A mask, a refillable water bottle (no glass or steel), any personal medication, and a plan to limit time spent outdoors.
Where can I get assistance if I feel unwell at the venue?
Staff at the National Stadium will provide masks, first‑aid services and direct you to medical help if needed.
