Mindfulness and consciousness seem to be the trend these days. And if you are one who supports such causes, you should really make a trip to LOOP, Singapore’s first and longest pop-up championing sustainability awareness.
Happening from 1 December till 31 December 2018 at The Incubator in Esplanade Park, LOOP brings together more than 100 local eco-conscious craft makers, food and beverage vendors and a string of workshops available to engage visitors in thinking consciously about their personal consumptions. The lifestyle festival spans over five weekends and aims to encourage cultivating a cleaner and greener Singapore interactively and teach visitors some simple changes they can make in their daily lives to create a sustainable living environment.
Restricting the use of Single-Use Plastic at LOOP
At LOOP, visitors are discouraged from using any form of single-use plastic and are encouraged to choose more environmentally-friendly options such as reusable bags and mugs. To encourage visitors to reduce the use of plastic, visitors will receive a complimentary metal straw (subject to availability) when visitors share about LOOP with the hashtag #LOOPSG on their various social media platforms.
Last-minute Christmas shopping at LOOP
Still searching for Christmas gifts? Well, you can do your shopping at LOOP! At the event, you can also indulge in a retail experience driven by local craft makers who aim to promote the move towards sustainability.
