Waves of Wellness 2024: A Celebration of Wellness, Creativity, and Fun!
As part of the second annual Waves of Wellness @ Marina Central and Wellness Festival Singapore 2024, the Wellness Fiesta brought two days of free workouts and crafts workshops to the Marina Central district, including South Beach.
Held on 20 and 21 July, the event saw a significant increase in participation, particularly in the Discover Marina Central Race, where attendance surged from 281 participants in 2023 to 776 in 2024. Overall, the festival attracted 2,351 attendees, more than doubling last year's turnout of 972.
While other locations offered energetic activities like Clubberjump trampoline workouts, Les Mills Burn, and Glowstick Dance, South Beach was the hub of creativity. Participants enjoyed various crafts workshops, including the Makers Party, where mindfulness met creativity through art jamming and coaster-making sessions. Attendees also personaliSed their own tote bags or canvas pouches during the art jamming workshops, with all materials provided.
South Beach was the hub of creativity at the Wellness Fiesta, with interactive art jamming and coaster-making sessions, as well as an exciting team quest race. Pictured here are participants proudly holding up their coasters after the coaster-making session.

Beyond getting crafty, participants could challenge themselves in the Discover Marina Central Race, a thrilling 90-minute team quest suitable for both children and adults. Teams navigated their chosen route around the Marina Central district, solving quizzes and completing challenges. The top 10 teams with the most quests completed earned attractive prizes, including 5-star hotel stays, KitchenAid mixers, luxurious buffets, spa experiences, and more!
