World Architecture Festival returns to Singapore in 2024

Singapore has once again been selected as the host country for the 2024 World Architecture Festival (WAF), following its successful hosting of the event in 2023.

Last year saw the festival being held in Singapore for the first time in almost a decade. The 2024 edition will be held across 6–8 November, with the Marina Bay Sands hotel – a previous WAF winner – confirmed as the venue for the second consecutive year.

Several Australian practices received awards and commendations at the 2023 event, including triple winner SJB; Lyons with Silver Thomas Hanley, Officer Woods, The Fulcrum Agency and Aspect Studios for Boola Katitjin; and Kerstin Thompson Architects for Melbourne Holocaust Museum.

Projects for the 2024 WAF awards can now be submitted into any of the 44 awards categories until 19 April. The shortlist will be announced in July 2024 on the WAF website.
