It’s already the last weekend of February, but there are plenty of fun things to do still. 

Whether you’re a foodie, bookworm or couch potato, you’re bound to enjoy something this weekend. Here are five things to do this weekend (Feb 26 to Feb 28):

COVID-19 has been affecting our lives for more than a year now and the National Museum of Singapore will be hosting a new free exhibition to take a look back on it. Called Picturing the Pandemic: A Visual Record of COVID-19 in Singapore, it will showcase over 200 photographs, 16 donated artefacts and one short film documenting the stories and experiences of Singaporeans in the early phases of the pandemic. 

The exhibition, which spans five themes, will take place until Aug 29. 

It’s finally here! Streaming service Disney+ has finally arrived in Singapore, offering content from global brands such as Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic and Star. 

There will be over 500 films and over 15,000 episodes of content to watch –  including Disney+ Originals content such as WandaVision and Lady and the Tramp.
