Bruno Mars to Electrify Singapore with His Largest Concert Yet on 5 April
In 2023, we had the pleasure of welcoming superstars such as Blackpink, Twice, and more to our shores.
This year promises to be just as thrilling, with Bruno Mars set to perform in Singapore, marking his biggest show in the city-state to date.
Fans are eagerly anticipating this event, which is scheduled for 5 April, at 8 pm, at the National Stadium.
Bruno Mars last graced the stage in Singapore in 2018, as part of his ’24K Magic World Tour’.
That memorable performance took place five years ago at the Singapore Stadium.
He’s a 14-time GRAMMY Award Winner
Known globally as a 14-time GRAMMY Award Winner, Bruno Mars needs little introduction.
His songs have become anthems, and his career achievements extend far beyond what many might realise.
To enumerate his accolades, Bruno Mars is not only a fourteen-time GRAMMY Award winner but also a thirty-time nominee.
His accolades include winning Album of the Year for his third solo album, ’24K Magic’ (2016), and Record of the Year for ‘Uptown Funk’ (2014), a collaborative hit with British producer-DJ Mark Ronson.
Additionally, in 2022, his project Silk Sonic, in collaboration with American singer-musician Anderson .Paak, swept four awards at the Grammys, including Record of the Year and Song of the Year for ‘Leave The Door Open’.
Bruno Mars’s success extends beyond the Grammys.
He has been honoured with various prestigious awards, including American Music Awards, MTV Europe Music Awards, and Billboard Music Awards.
His influence is evident as he has made it into the Hot 100 list seven times, distinguishing him as the top male artist with the most Hot 100 entries.
Selling over 200 million singles worldwide, Bruno Mars stands as one of the best-selling artists of all time.
Remarkably, he is the first male artist to achieve five “Hot 100” #1 singles since Elvis Presley.
A gifted songwriter and producer, Mars has contributed to hits for other renowned music acts, including British singer Adele and American singer CeeLo Green.
At just 38 years old, his portfolio of chart-topping hits is impressive, featuring earworms like ‘Just the Way You Are’, ‘Uptown Funk’, and ‘Locked Out of Heaven’.

Can Postpone to 10 April?
However, for our Muslim friends, the concert coincides with the last 10 days of their fasting month.
These days are considered the holiest in Ramadan, a time dedicated to spiritual reflection, prayer, and purification.
Ramadan ends on 10 April.
In a collaborative post between Live Nation and Warner Music on Instagram, many have commented that the concert date overlapping with this significant period, leading to requests for postponing the concert date to enable wider attendance.
