Singapore in April 2025 – Things To Do, Festivals, Events & Weather
April 2023 is a busy month because there are 2 Public Holidays, namely the Good Friday (7 Apr 2023) and Hari Raya Puasa (22 Apr 2023).
Because Hari Raya Puasa (also known as Eid al-Fitr) is a big festival in neighboring countries Malaysia and Indonesia, many will be traveling to Singapore during the holiday. Therefore, hotels and attractions may see higher level of crowd during the week before and after Hari Raya.
If you’re visiting Singapore during the Ramadan month (1 month before Hari Raya), you should visit Ramadan Bazaar, a night market selling food, clothes and Hari Raya goodies. More details further down in this article.
Singapore’s Weather in April
April is the Inter-Monsoon Period in Singapore. During this time, there will be frequent (and at times severe) thunderstorms in the afternoon and early evening. Despite the thunderstorms, the afternoon temperature will be pretty hot, with maximum temperature above 32°C.
Based on historical data between 1991 to 2020, it rains 15 days out of 30 days. So, it will rain 50% of the month.
I recommend that you bookmark Singapore’s weather website, which is a very useful website to see current rain area & intensity, and to check the rain forecast for the next 4 days.
Most of the rains have pretty short duration. So you don’t have to cancel your plan if the forecast is rain. Just bring foldable umbrella if you’re planning to explore the outdoors.
April’s temperature hovers between 25.3 to 32.4 degrees Celsius (77.5 to 90.3 degrees Fahrenheit). Generally, the temperature in Singapore doesn’t differ much from month to month.
In April, the sun rises between 7.04am (1 Apr) to 6.57am (30 Apr) and sunset occurs between 7.12pm (1 Apr) to 7.06pm (30 Apr).
