Taste rare durian and other exotic fruits at the Sands Fruit Festival

A durian feast plus mangosteens, lychees, longans, and coconuts headline the first Sands Fruit Festival happening on 21 and 22 July.

To be held at the Event Plaza, the Sands Fruit Festival by Marina Bay Sands will offer guests some of the region's most exotic fruits, with the city's stunning evening view as the backdrop.

From 7pm till 11pm during the two-day event, the spotlight will be on the durian, often lauded as one of the most popular tropical fruits in Singapore. Marina Bay Say Sands is bringing in rare and top of the line grades for durian lovers.

The star of the durian spread at Sands Fruit Festival will be the Mao Shan Wang durian variety. Hailed by many durian lovers as the crème de la crème of durians, it has a sweet and creamy texture and silky smooth flesh coupled with a subtle touch of bitterness.

In addition to the Mao Shan Wang durian, other durian varieties to savor will include XO, D24 and Golden Phoenix. D24 is similar to Mao Shan Wang in texture, with thick and creamy flesh, and is even more fragrant than Mao Shan Wang. Golden Phoenix durian flesh is bitter sweet and is considerably less fibrous. The seeds of a Golden Phoenix durian are much smaller and there tends to be thicker flesh for each seed.

A wide range of other tropical fruits will also be available. Guests will also enjoy free flow of sweet and refreshing mangosteens, lychees, longan, and coconuts to go along with the delicious durian.

Tickets for the Sands Fruit Festival are available for purchase from 25 June at S$88 nett per person. A family of four can enjoy a special package at S$208 nett. Tickets can be purchased online from www.marinabaysands.com or by telephone at +65 6688 8868.
