July’s heating up — and we’re not just talking about the weather. If you and your partner are looking to switch up your routine, this month’s lineup of events are a good reminder that meaningful dates don’t always need to be big or extravagant — just intentional and a little different from your usual routine. From football fever and fine wine to laugh-out-loud theatre nights and culturally rich experiences, these couple-friendly events are the perfect way to recharge, reconnect, and make the second half of the year feel fresh again.

Kick Off Your Love Life At SFOF 2025

The Singapore Festival of Football (SFOF) is back this July — and it’s bringing serious firepower to the National Stadium with two nights of top-tier football featuring European giants Arsenal FC, AC Milan, and Newcastle United FC. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just tagging along for the snacks, vibes, and your football-obsessed boyfriend, this is the kind of date night that scores on all fronts. From the roar of the crowd to the thrill of a live goal, SFOF scores on all fronts — and yes, matching couple jerseys are absolutely encouraged (extra points if you get your nicknames printed on the back).

Sweat, Snatch, Shop: The Chaos Couple Run

Second on our list is a date idea made for couples who thrive on a little (or a lot of) chaos. The Lazada Pop Mart-themed run isn’t just a typical 5KM — it’s a full-blown morning of fun run madness, cute Twinkle Twinkle swag, and playful pit stops. Expect voucher chases mid-run, a post-race Shopping Village packed with freebies, and even a Cart Dash challenge that puts your speed and shopping instincts to the test. You and your plus-one may not win the race — but you’ll definitely score big on post-run retail therapy.

Get Competitive At Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Experience Event

From now till 24 July, test both your reflexes and your relationship at the Nintendo Switch 2 pop-up in Jewel Changi Airport. You and your plus-one can try out the brand-new console and race through the “Knockout Tour” mode in Mario Kart World. Plus, score a free exclusive tote when you play the game (just flash the Mario sun visor you’ll get), and pre-order or purchase the console on-site. It’s a playful pit stop that’s low-stakes, high-fun, and 10/10 recommended for couples who love a little friendly competition.

No worries — there’s an exclusive TADA ride-hailing code so you can get home safe (no designated driver needed).
