Thaipusam 2025: What You Can Expect
The Carrying & Display of Kavadis
You can expect to see grand and colourful Kavadis carried by devotees along the way. The Kavadis are physical structures weighing up to 40 kg, decorated with flowers and religious images of deities. They are symbolic of physical burdens and are sometimes pierced or hooked onto the bodies of the devotees. Devotees prepared themselves for this day by fasting and purifying themselves before the festival to demonstrate their strength, commitment and resolution to carry the Kavadi.
Traditional Hindu Dances & Music
Get ready to take in the sights and sounds of rhythmic beats and chanting of hymns amidst music played by traditional instruments and percussions. You may also catch the Kavadi Attam, also known as the “burden dance”. It is the most prominent dance that involves the devotees who carry the Kavadis swaying and moving to the rhythm of the music. Some devotees may exhibit trance-like movements while expressing their connection and devotion to the Divine.
Milk Pot Offerings & Temple Visits
Milk is seen as pure and auspicious, and is a symbol of purity of the mind and body in Hindusm. Therefore, you may see devotees carrying pots of milk (paal kudam in Tamil) as offerings to express gratitude to Lord Murugan in the temple. Additionally, this significant ritual (abishekam) involves devotees pouring the milk from their pots over the statue of Lord Murugan at the end of the procession.
Thaipusam 2025 Celebration of the Victory of Good over Evil
The day of Thaipusam is based on the full moon day in the Tamil month of Thai. Apart from the seeking forgiveness and giving thanks to Lord Murugan, it is also to honor the God of war and victory. Essentially, the central theme and significance of Thaipusam is to celebrate the victory of God Murugan over the demon Surapadman. The occasion serves as a reminder that good will always prevail over evil, and that devoutness and faith can help overcome times of difficulties.
Thaipusam 2025 is Not a Public Holiday in Singapore
Although Thaipusam is not a public holiday in Singapore, you can still expect large crowds and potential traffic congestion as it is a major celebration for the Hindus in Singapore. As Thaipusam is a deeply spiritual event for the Hindus, do observe respectful boundaries especially during the procession, and when devotees are engaging in acts of worship.

Open date USS tickets save you time spent on queuing to purchase the tickets at the entrance gate prior to admission, which may risk tickets being sold out for that day and denying you from entering the attraction. Tickets with open dates also buy you more time to decide on the day of visit upon securing a ticket for admission.

Royal Caribbean Spectrum of the Seas has since assumed its cruises in April 2022 for Singapore and Malaysia having been disrupted by the Covid-19 outbreak. China and Japan currently remain out of bounds due to the closure of their borders for cruises. If you’re interested to go onboard a 5D4N cruise to nowhere (disembarking from Singapore – Kelang – Penang – Singapore), then this guide is for you. Before you read on, you may want to preview it in action in the video below including a quick room tour of our state room with unobstructed balcony view.
Royal Caribbean Cruise Singapore: Spectrum of the Seas Entertainment Live Show Times
The Royal Caribbean Cruise (Singapore) Spectrum of the Seas itinerary covers a wide variety of entertainment options.
The cruise offers a diverse range of live shows, music and dance performances, movie screenings as well as the Casino. Our recent cruise set sail from the 7th to 11th July 2022 (Monday to Thursday), and we were told the itinerary will most likely only alter every few months.
Day 1 (Singapore – Kelang) – we recommend you begin your journey with early check-in (earliest at 12 noon), so you’d have time to have lunch before unpacking (the state rooms will only be ready by 1:30pm) and get your reservations done on your Royal Caribbean app (this will be covered in detail as you read later) for your shows. There were no Headliner Shows scheduled on Day 1, however, be sure not to miss the quintessential music band performance by The Rhythmocracy at the Two70 stage located at Deck 5 of the ship. The Two70 stage is at the tail end of it, hence in the day you’ll be able to see vast sea views (we managed to see the ship turn around to ready itself to set sail from Marina Bay Singapore at 5:15pm). The Rhythmocracy Quartet delivers every beat of their punches with both their superb funky and balladic musical arrangement as well as their smooth vocals. This is a no-break live band performance that lasts about 45 minutes. No reservations necessary. They also perform in the Music Hall (located just outside the Casino on Deck 3) at 10:30pm on Tuesday & Wednesday nights. However on the first night, Aura Band from the Philippines takes this Music Hall slot. If you are still up for some party music until late at night (they take almost all dedications), be sure to find yourself a seat early, as the crowd may start to pour in and stand around you because the place is full. Our favourite spot to enjoy the band is from the seats on the 2nd storey along the glass railing, just in front of the bar. Try their Sunrise Tequila (USD$10), you won’t be disappointed.

Day 2 (Kelang – Penang)- This is the day that you need to catch world class entertainer Pengfei Su at 7:15pm and 9:30pm. We suggest finishing your dinner around 6:30pm and then proceed to start queueing at the Royal Theatre located on Deck 4 for the 7:15pm show in order to have a comfortable break before the following show that day The Silk Road. When we got to the Royal Theatre around 6:45pm there was already a big crowd forming at the entrance. It is free seating, but try to avoid seats directly behind the barricade as well as the pillars in order to have unobstructed views. Not only did PengFei perfect his seamless “face-changing” moves (Bian Lian), he also performed magic tricks such as linking rings and poker cards, etc. We were most impressed by his last segment in which he juggled multiple diabolos. This guy is truly a master of all tricks! The whole performance lasts about 45 minutes. No reservations required.
Pengfei Su’s multi-faceted live performance
The Silk Road show times were scheduled at 8:15pm as well as 10:30pm on Day 2 only. Ensure that you reserve your seats as soon as you came onboard the day before. After Pengfei Su’s performances, you can have a good 2-hour break to do whatever you want. For my group who are big eaters, and did not eat too much from the main dining (sit-down service) due to being a little pressed for time earlier, we continued to eat our dinner at Windjammer (deck 14) to try their dinner buffet spread this time round. For the Silk Road 10:30pm show, we suggest you begin queueing at the Two70 (deck 5) by 9:45pm because of the limited seats located around the stage periphery. The production also gives Royal Caribbean Class members priority seatings, therefore by the time we went in, the front rows were mostly taken up by them; we could only either choose to sit behind the railing (with some planter boxes blocking the recessed part of the stage) or the 2nd storey where the seats are further away with glass barricade blocking some views too. The Silk Road is an original live production by Royal Caribbean International. Prepare to be wowed by the stunning costumes and visuals made possible by the Two70 robotics set up, as well as the skilled acrobatics by the performers. The show duration is about 45 minutes. Reservations are necessary. Staff will be scanning your booking barcode from the Royal Caribbean phone app (details explained as you read on) in order to grant you entry.

Day 3 (Cruising) – Another magician Zlwin Chew takes the stage of the Royal Theatre on this day with two time slots 7:15pm and 9:30pm. Having had an activity-packed day, we decided to enjoy a longer dinner this time round and went for the 9:30pm slot. The crowd isn’t any lesser than PengFei Su’s 7:15pm show the day before, hence we conclude that the guests have no timing preferences. Zlwin performed a series of vanishing acts with his partner Paige, together with various tricks including cards, wine bottles, etc, in between. There were some mind-blowing segments in which he wowed the crowd with mentalism moments that you’ll get to experience first hand.

Preparation prior to boarding
Once you’re booked for a trip, you’d be required to download the Royal Caribbean app and create an account. You’ll need to do an online check-in on the app (at least 48 hours prior to departure time) for a quicker boarding experience. You may also use the app to make show reservations and the planning of your cruise calendar; however this can only be done using their wi-fi onboard, as the app is designed to only work within the ship. So feel free to browse through the activities and entertainment options on the app in the meantime.
There are essentially a few steps to online checking-in:
Filling up of particulars and upload a photo of your face
Selecting your preferred arrival time (with options of half-hour intervals from 12noon onwards. The gate closes at 3:30pm, and we are required to complete check-in no later than 60 minutes before departure time).
Uploading an official Covid-19 vaccination proof (eg. vaccination card indicating the record of all 3 doses issued by MOH on the day you completed your booster shot)
Linking a credit card to your Royal Caribbean account
Completing a health questionnaire (1 day before departure)
Covid-19 Protocols Next, you’ll need to start making an appointment for a rapid antigen test (ART) with any Quick Test Centres (QTCs) or Combined Test Centres (CTCs), or any other approved healthcare providers that offer Tele-ART or pre-departure testing. Be sure to book your appointment no earlier than 24 hours before your departure time. For eg, our departure was 5:30pm, therefore we had to do the test only after 5:30pm the day before. Your HealthHub app and TraceTogether app would be automatically updated of the ART result in a few minutes. A negative result is mandatory to be allowed for cruise boarding. [Update: As of 2023, pre-cruise Covid testing is no longer required.]
Check-In Procedures
You will be ushered by the customer service crew to follow the check-in queue guided by the queue belt barriers once you’ve arrived at Marina Bay Cruise Center (Address: 61 Marina Coastal Dr, Singapore 018947). Once your passports and online check-in details have been cleared, boarding passes will be processed and updated on your Royal Caribbean app. You will then be guided to the security scanning machine for your luggage scan. You are allowed to carry-on two 750ml champagnes or wines onboard for each stateroom. Please note that any bottles more than this permissible alcohol limit will be seized and stored by the ship before returning them to you on the last day onboard once the ship returns to Singapore waters. Any other alcoholic beverages including but not limited to spirits, beers, hard liquor, etc, will be confiscated for good.
Next, you will go through a segregation of queues according to non-stop and stopovers at the port-of-calls of Penang or Klang. The necessary documentations (pre-departure form, visa, etc) will have to be prepared beforehand as they will be checked at this point. Failure to do so will deny you from disembarking at Malaysia ports.
You will then be required to go to your waiting areas according to your respective muster stations as stated on your boarding pass (for eg, C3). Shortly after that you can board the Spectrum of the Seas! The staff members will be collecting your passports at the ship’s entry gates, and will be returning them to you on the day before you disembark. An announcement will be made for your respective muster groups for the location and time for the passport collections within the ship.
