Main Purpose Of This Festival
Tuesday, June 23, 2009 at 9:02 AM
The main purpose of this festival is to allow Singaporeans get more involved in the arts. This is the only time most Singaporeans will be exposed to the arts due to the advertisement and promotion and create more interest in visiting places like The Esplanade for shows. Some people may not visit The Esplanade during normal days as they may feel that that is a place for people of the higher social class to enjoy. With promotion and special packages during this period and also a few art shows that are free-of charge, any Singaporeans can enjoy this festival.

Other than that, by having an Art Festival in Singapore will expose this small little to other artist and people around the world. If this festival is a success, more and more world known artist will choose Singapore as a destination for their world tour or other performances. Last but not least, Arts Festival will bring in more tourism receipts as they will buy tickets to enjoy the show while enjoying their holidays here.
