The Culture and Public Affairs Section of the Embassy of Switzerland in Singapore fosters connections between Switzerland and Singapore in the fields of culture, science, innovation, architecture, and public diplomacy. By collaborating with artists, institutions, cultural foundations, agencies, and private partners, the Embassy facilitates exchanges, partnerships, and dialogue.
The Embassy also organises events and initiatives that highlight Switzerland’s creativity and values – from visual arts, film, design, literature, architecture, and performing arts to innovation and sustainability. Many of these activities are delivered in collaboration with Presence Switzerland, the Swiss Arts Council Pro Helvetia, and local or international partners.
A central highlight is the Swiss Weeks, organised every two years. Since its debut in April 2019, this festival has grown into a key fixture in Singapore’s cultural calendar, celebrating Swiss culture, innovation, and heritage through performances, culinary experiences, and exhibitions.
Through these initiatives, the Embassy promotes Swiss excellence, strengthens Switzerland–Singapore ties, and fosters lasting collaboration and mutual understanding.
