Ice-Skating is perfect for friends and family who wants to grow closer to each other and enjoy themselves at the same time. When starting out, Ice-Skating together helps build confidence and trust in one another. Once you are a more proficient skater, you can help guide your friends who are still starting out, lending them your support and at the same time, receiving their trust.

Kallang Leisure Park

Hey guys who live in the East (of Singapore)! Need a place to hang out and have fun with your friends? Well, I have the perfect place for you! Introducing… Kallang Leisure Park! Kallang Leisure Park is a mall located near Stadium MRT that offers quality fun, dining, shopping and relaxation for everyone.

 Before the mall went under reconstruction, Kallang Leisure Park was famous for its ice skating ring. Singapore has few ice skating rings. For the people staying at the West, they go to JCube. For the people staying at the East, they come to Kallang Leisure Park. Now, Kallang Leisure Park still has its ice skating ring but now, with even more! For those that do not want to ice skate, you can go to the bowling alley beside it. After having a blast at the ice skating ring and/or bowling alley, you can just take the escalator up to watch a movie! After your activities, I am pretty sure you are starving. Don’t worry, there are many places at Kallang Leisure Park to eat such as Koufu, KFC and many more!

And if you have a nEbO card, you are entitled to more benefits such as free popcorn or extended gaming time so why not sign up as well?

Garena Stadium

Garena Stadium is not your typical LAN shop. It revolutionizes what one perceives as a LAN shop. Apart from the regular stuff you get at a LAN shop, Garena Stadium also has food, merchandise and even large screens for viewing competitive games!

Most importantly, national players such as SGS.Chawy and SGS.Harleluyar come here to compete with each other and on a regional scale in tournaments such as the Garena Premier League. If you were wondering why their names look weird, it is because that these are their in-game names (IGNs). This consists of the team they play for, like SGS and KLH, followed by a name of their choice, which they build their reputation upon.

There are also huge high definition screens allow many to spectate ongoing games live allowing for events every weekend where these national players come to Garena Stadium to play casual games and have meet and greet sessions with their fans.

If you are interested in e-sports after reading this, do check out Singapore's very own Garena Premier League at http://gpl.garena.com and while you're at it, why not 'jio' your friends along?
