Singapore Singapore Weather in February — Climate Guide
February in Singapore is Excellent
February is Excellent for Singapore.
February is the transition month from monsoon to drier season. Rainfall halves from 240 mm to 110 mm; sunshine increases. The Chinese New Year week (date varies by lunar calendar — typically mid-February) is the cultural peak — fireworks on Marina Bay, lion dances throughout Chinatown, and the Chingay Parade (the world's largest float-and-performance street parade) happens the weekend after CNY.
Weather-wise, February is consistently the best month of the year — manageable humidity, predictable sunshine, and the dry-season-style afternoons that the tourist board uses for marketing photography.

Singapore in February — Full Picture
February is the transition month from monsoon to drier season. Rainfall halves from 240 mm to 110 mm; sunshine increases. The Chinese New Year week (date varies by lunar calendar — typically mid-February) is the cultural peak — fireworks on Marina Bay, lion dances throughout Chinatown, and the Chingay Parade (the world's largest float-and-performance street parade) happens the weekend after CNY.
Weather-wise, February is consistently the best month of the year — manageable humidity, predictable sunshine, and the dry-season-style afternoons that the tourist board uses for marketing photography.
Book hotels 4-6 months ahead if the trip overlaps CNY week. Avoid the biennial Singapore Airshow (early February of even years) for hotel pricing — military and aerospace executives book up the city.
