These achievements are only possible through close collaboration with our partners – including event promoters, community interest groups, international sport federation, and national sport associations – who share our common vision to explore various ways to live better through sports and fitness in our urban playground,” he said.

Bigger, Bolder Offerings

SGUSFF 2025 will welcome the much-anticipated return of crowd favourites AIA HYROX Singapore and Climb Fest by PSA x BFF. The festival will also debut new partnerships with World Rowing, Festival International des Sports Extrêmes (FISE), and The Butterfly Effect, introducing both Asian and world-premiere events to our shores.

World Rowing Super60 Singapore, spearheaded by the sport’s International Federation, challenges participants to clock the furthest distance in 60 seconds. Starting from 16 August, there will be a series of activations that culminate in a grand finale in November to crown the winner of this inaugural indoor rowing event. The Butterfly Effect, a celebrated women’s fitness movement, arrives in Singapore as its only Asian destination. This empowering event invites women to challenge their physical boundaries by completing four curated workouts to foster camaraderie and personal growth. The world-renowned Festival International des Sports Extrêmes (FISE) from France will also be a part of SGUSFF to showcase numerous adrenaline-charged BMX, rollerblade, skateboard and breaking competitions and workshops.

“FISE is a globally recognised celebration of street culture and high-level athletics that brings together both top athletes and the masses for a vibrant cultural experience. We are very happy to collaborate with Hurricane Group to bring this event to Singapore, in conjunction with the second edition of the Singapore Urban Sports + Fitness Festival (SGUSFF). This homegrown event is dedicated to driving greater engagement and participation in urban sports and fitness among the local teens and young adult community through activities like skateboarding, BMX, rollerblading and breakdancing,” said Clement Tan, Chief Operations Officer from KIN Productions – organisers of FISE Xperience Singapore 2025.

Goh Xiang Tian, Managing Director of Recognize Studios, the team behind DanceXhibit that rallied dancers across ages at the inaugural SGUSFF last year said, “We’re excited to return for SGUSFF 2025 and be part of a festival that truly celebrates movement in all its forms. Being here allows us to connect with a wider community – from first-time dancers to seasoned enthusiasts – and show that dance is for everyone. It’s always inspiring to see people try something new and discover joy through movement.”.

The inaugural edition SGUSFF attracted over 70,000 participants, bringing sporting partners and athletes to showcase exciting sports such as street dance, fitness racing, parkour, and bouldering, among others. Held across six locations islandwide over two weekends from 23 August to 1 September 2024, this first-of-its-kind festival served as a platform to rally communities in support of Singapore's growing urban sports and fitness scenes. The event aimed to boost engagement and sports participation in local communities by capitalising on the rising popularity of urban sports and fitness competitions among teens and young adults.
