Singapore Youth Festival

Singapore Youth Festival

The Singapore Youth Festival (SYF) (Chinese: 新加坡青年节) is an annual event in Singapore organised by the Ministry of Education (MOE) to celebrate the achievements of youths in co-curricular activities (CCAs). Starting in April and culminating in a month-long celebration in July, students in schools across Singapore involved in the performing arts, sports and uniformed group CCAs are engaged in preparations to compete in the SYF. More than 30,000 students participate in the performances and activities in the SYF, as well as events leading up to it.

The SYF reflects MOE's belief in the importance of a well-rounded education, as it promotes many lesser-known CCAs such as those about the arts.
