SINGAPORE — Before Coldplay, Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars booked their post-Covid-pandemic gigs at the National Stadium here, they had already played to adoring crowds way before at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

Yes, in the decades when people now known as millennials and Generation Z were still in school or were not yet born, the Government and its agencies here have been wooing big-name foreign acts to this tiny island and to the air-conditioned indoor stadium. It remains to be seen whether the Government will decide to demolish or repurpose the existing stadium as studies are ongoing and more details on the plans would be provided in time.
A combined total of S$90 million were spent building it, funded by betting operator Singapore Pools and horse-racing operator Singapore Turf Club. During construction, it took about a week and numerous hydraulic jacks to hoist the stainless steel roof and set it into place. It came at a time when architects in Singapore were struggling during the 1985 economic recession where not many private-sector jobs were available. It prompted claims that “equally talented” Singaporean architects had been sidelined for large projects.
Before that, in December 1989, the Basketball Association of Singapore was the first to use the stadium for the Merlion Cup basketball finals. Other well-known Cantopop artistes of the time such as Faye Wong, Sandy Lam, Emil Chau, as well as veterans Sam Hui and Alan Tam have performed at the stadium as well.8. THE HISTORIC TIGER 5S
