About SYNC. Festival

SYNC. Festival is the only community-focused festival that integrates intentional rest, reflection, and connection because we believe shared moments of pause uplift both personal well-being and the greater good.

Created in response to the growing need for accessible spaces where people can step away from the demands of daily life and reconnect with themselves, others, and nature, SYNC. Festival is Tzu Chi’s continued effort to respond to evolving societal needs. Rooted in the intention to empower the body, declutter the mind, and inspire meaningful action, the festival offers space to slow down, breathe, and rediscover clarity and purpose in today’s fast-moving world. It reflects Tzu Chi’s ongoing commitment to holistic well-being—nurturing not only physical health, but also emotional and mental balance—so that individuals may return to their daily lives with greater calm, clarity, and resilience.

Following the successful launch of the first SYNC. Festival in Yishun last year, we return this year with fresh activities and a new location, while holding firmly to the same spirit of care and well-being.

From a leisurely walk with family and friends through Pasir Ris Park to immersive rest experiences designed to restore energy and clarity, the festival invites you to slow down, reconnect, and leave feeling refreshed, renewed, and gently re-centred.

SYNC. Festival is proudly organised by

Tzu-Chi Foundation (Singapore)

Since 1993, the Buddhist Compassion Relief Tzu-Chi Foundation (Singapore) has served those in need, guided by the belief that kindness and compassion can transform lives. With community support, we provide meaningful initiatives that adapt to society’s changing needs.

Rooted in Dharma Master Cheng Yen’s teachings, Tzu Chi believes in the innate goodness within everyone. Through love, compassion, and service, we aim to awaken this kindness, creating a ripple effect of positive change—one person, one family, one community at a time.

We also recognise that strong families and empowered individuals are essential for a thriving society. By nurturing family bonds and supporting working class to cultivate values and contribute to their communities, we help build a caring, sustainable future for all.
