Singapore is gearing up for another electrifying edition of the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix, set to take place from 3 – 5 October 2025. Beyond the adrenaline-fueled night race, this year’s event promises an unforgettable entertainment lineup, headlined by none other than Elton John and K-pop sensation G-DRAGON.
The long-anticipated return of South Korean music icon G-DRAGON is set to captivate fans on Friday, October 3rd, at the Padang Stage. After a seven-year hiatus, the former BIGBANG leader is making a powerful comeback, reintroducing his unique blend of hip-hop, fashion and cultural influence, having launched JOOPITER with Pharrell Williams last year. Known for pushing creative boundaries, G-DRAGON was the first Korean solo artist to land on the U.S. Billboard 200 with a Korean-language album. His latest project, Übermensch, dropping in early 2025, marks his first full-length solo album in over a decade, and fans can expect a dynamic, high-energy performance featuring new material alongside his greatest hits.
His influence extends far beyond music—G-DRAGON has also left a significant mark in fashion, working with brands like Chanel and Nike, and being recognized as a global trendsetter. His performance at the Formula 1 Singapore GP is expected to be one of the standout moments of the weekend, showcasing his distinctive style and artistry.
Elton John to Close Out Race Weekend in Grand Style
On Sunday, October 5th, legendary British singer Elton John will take the stage after the Formula 1 race, marking his return to live performances following his record-breaking Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour. As an EGOT winner and one of the best-selling artists of all time, Elton John’s timeless hits like Rocket Man, Your Song and Tiny Dancer are sure to create an unforgettable finale to the high-octane weekend.
