If watching a live dance performance is something that has been on the Singapore to-do list, this could be a good opportunity to make the experience a little more affordable. Singapore Ballet Limited is offering 20% off tickets to PASSAGES, its contemporary season taking place from 5 to 8 November 2026 at the SOTA Studio Theatre.

The promotion is available with promo code PASSAGES20, giving ticket buyers a chance to enjoy selected seats at a lower price. For anyone who enjoys ballet, contemporary dance, live theatre or simply wants to try something different for an evening out, this is a deal worth keeping in mind.

PASSAGES is not simply another traditional ballet performance. The programme is designed around contemporary dance and creative new works, bringing together choreographers and dancers to explore different ideas, styles and ways of moving on stage. It is the kind of performance that can appeal to both regular ballet-goers and those who may be curious about seeing what contemporary ballet is all about.

Save 20% on PASSAGES Tickets

The main attraction of this promotion is straightforward: 20% off tickets when the promotional code is applied during the booking process.

With the discount, Category 1 tickets are available at $52, compared with the usual price of $65, while Category 2 tickets cost $40 instead of $50. Booking fees are not included, so it is worth checking the final amount before payment.

The promotional code to remember is PASSAGES20.

When booking, select “Redeem Promotion”, enter the code and choose “Friends of Singapore Ballet” when the option appears before continuing with the purchase.

Tickets can be booked through the Singapore Ballet PASSAGES Contemporary Season 2026 page.

For purchases made through BookMyShow, the promotional code should be entered when selecting the ticket and before payment is completed. As seats are subject to availability, those interested in attending may want to book earlier rather than leaving it until the last minute.

What Is PASSAGES?

Singapore Ballet is known for presenting a mixture of classical ballet and contemporary works, giving audiences opportunities to see both familiar favourites and newer approaches to dance.

PASSAGES is the company’s contemporary season, and each edition features works that introduce audiences to different choreographic voices. The 2026 programme includes several interesting pieces, including the stage debut of Pulse by Shan Del Vecchio.

Also returning are audience favourites Incomparable Beauty by Ma Cong and Chant by Val Caniparoli. The programme will also feature a brand-new work by internationally acclaimed choreographer Matthew Neenan.

That combination gives the season plenty of variety. Instead of seeing one style repeated throughout the evening, audiences can expect different creative perspectives and performances that explore movement in their own ways.

For newcomers, this can be a particularly interesting way to experience ballet without needing to be an expert. Contemporary dance can sometimes feel more accessible because it is not always tied to the familiar storytelling and traditional presentation associated with classical ballet. There is room for experimentation, emotion and interpretation.

Why This Could Be a Good Night Out

There are plenty of entertainment choices in Singapore, but live performances have a quality that cannot always be recreated by watching something on a screen.

A ballet performance gives audiences the chance to see dancers performing directly in front of them, with the lighting, music, choreography and atmosphere coming together as part of the experience. PASSAGES could therefore make an interesting alternative to the usual dinner, cinema or shopping trip.

The 20% discount also makes the idea more attractive for anyone who has been interested in ballet but has hesitated because of ticket prices.

At $40 for Category 2 after the discount, the promotion provides a relatively accessible entry point into the performance. Those looking for a better seating category can consider Category 1 at $52, down from $65.

It can also be a nice option for a date night, an evening with friends or a cultural outing with family members who are old enough to attend. Admission is for patrons aged 6 years old and above, so families with older children can also consider making an evening of it.

A Chance to See New Dance Works

One of the more appealing aspects of PASSAGES is its emphasis on contemporary choreography and new creative voices.

For regular ballet audiences, the programme offers an opportunity to see new works alongside pieces that have already caught the attention of audiences. For first-time visitors, it provides a chance to discover another side of Singapore Ballet beyond better-known classical productions.

The inclusion of world premieres and new choreography also means there is a sense of discovery surrounding the programme. Rather than simply returning to the same familiar productions every year, contemporary seasons such as PASSAGES provide space for fresh ideas to reach the stage.

That makes this promotion worth considering for people who enjoy discovering something before everyone else starts talking about it.

How to Get the 20% Discount

Using the offer is relatively simple, but the promo code needs to be entered correctly during checkout.

Start by visiting the official Singapore Ballet PASSAGES booking page and selecting the preferred performance and seats.

During the booking process, select “Redeem Promotion” and enter PASSAGES20. When “Friends of Singapore Ballet” appears, select the relevant option and continue with the purchase.

Anyone booking through BookMyShow should enter the promotional code at the ticket selection stage before making payment.

As the discount is subject to seat availability, not every seat may remain available throughout the promotion period. The tickets are also non-refundable, non-exchangeable and non-transferable, so it is important to check the selected date, time and seating category carefully before completing the purchase.

A valid SAFRA membership card may also be requested upon entry, so eligible customers should take note of this requirement.

Plan the Visit Before Booking

The performance runs from 5 to 8 November 2026, giving audiences several dates to choose from. The venue is the SOTA Studio Theatre, making it a suitable option for those planning an evening around the arts and entertainment scene.

The exact performance time should be checked during the ticket-booking process, as the supplied promotion details do not specify a single event time.

The promotion itself runs from 13 August to 8 November 2026, but the discounted tickets are intended for the PASSAGES performances taking place from 5 to 8 November.

It is also worth remembering that the advertised ticket prices exclude booking fees and the promotion cannot be combined with other promotions, privileges, discount cards or promotional vouchers where applicable.

Why Consider This Deal?

The strongest reason to consider this promotion is that it makes a contemporary ballet experience more affordable without requiring a complicated discount process.

A saving of $13 on Category 1 tickets and $10 on Category 2 tickets may not sound enormous at first glance, but those savings can make a difference when buying multiple tickets. For two Category 2 tickets, for example, the discount represents a $20 saving compared with the usual ticket price, before booking fees.

More importantly, the deal provides an excuse to experience something a little different.

PASSAGES brings together established and emerging choreographic ideas, returning favourites and new works, making it an appealing choice for anyone looking for a cultural night out in Singapore. Whether someone already follows ballet closely or simply wants to see what contemporary dance has to offer, the reduced ticket prices make it easier to give the performance a try.

Those interested should therefore keep PASSAGES20 handy and check the available seats before making a booking. With performances taking place over only four days, popular sessions could fill up sooner than expected.
