Hi Vendors,

Are you ready for THE mega event of the year? After the huge success of The Marketplace Collective at Suntec Convention Hall last November, we are thrilled to announce that we’re heading to Marina Bay Sands Expo this November 2024! This marks our debut at MBS Expo, following a decade of hosting events at Singapore Expo, Suntec Convention, and other notable venues. It will be an exciting opportunity to take advantage of the illustrious halls and facilities at MBS Expo!

As one of Singapore’s most iconic landmarks, few venues can match the prestige and dynamic atmosphere of Marina Bay Sands Expo. Located in the heart of Singapore’s business and leisure district, this world-class venue is easily accessible, whether by car or via the Bayfront MRT station, just a stone’s throw away. With its proximity to luxury hotels, the MBS shopping mall, and popular tourist attractions like the ArtScience Museum and SkyPark, the Expo draws a diverse crowd, including tourists, locals enjoying their weekends, and business travelers. The modern, sleek design of the hall enhances the appeal of any event, and has played host to various market events as well, including boutique fairs, art exhibitions, and food fairs.

We’re also excited to have Jumptopia running concurrently with our event—a kids and family destination with great spillover, featuring go-karts, bouncing castles, claw machines, F&B, and festive Christmas shopping. The hall can accommodate over 300 stalls, making it an ideal setting for a fun-filled weekend of shopping, activities, and entertainment targeted at both locals and tourists. Whether you specialize in lifestyle, fashion, homeware, food and beverage, crafts, or other exciting categories, we invite you to join us in creating an unforgettable shopping experience at MBS Expo!
