Lenovo Singapore and *SCAPE are launching X SCAPE: Sports Edition, a six-week youth-focused festival timed to ride the momentum of the FIFA World Cup 2026 and Singapore’s Youth Month.
Running from mid-June to July, the programme is designed as a community-led celebration of sport, youth culture and participation.
The initiative builds on the long-running partnership between Lenovo and *SCAPE, and a wider effort to turn global football excitement into something more grounded in the local context.
Rather than treating the World Cup as a distant spectacle, the festival is being framed as a way for young people in Singapore to engage with sport more directly, whether through competition, performance, street culture or creative expression.
As the official technology partner of FIFA World Cup 2026, Lenovo is using the occasion to connect its global involvement in the tournament with a more local youth-facing platform. In Singapore, that message is also reinforced by football icon Fandi Ahmad, who serves as Lenovo Singapore’s brand ambassador.
*SCAPE, for its part, is positioning the festival as a youth-led platform. The collaboration would allow *SCAPE to create meaningful experiences that tap into the global excitement of the World Cup while encouraging young people to move from spectators to active contributors.
The line-up includes the FIBA 3×3 Lion City Challenger on 20 and 21 June, a football-themed edition of Nightflix Somerset featuring Shaolin Soccer on 4 July, the Sport Stacking Championship on 5 July, Youth Day by RESO on 6 July, and a Muay Thai Festival on 11 July.
The programme also becomes more heavily football-centred in the second half of July. A BMX Workshop and Skateboarding Showcase will take place on 18 July, while football-inspired art activation Strawberry Jam Vol 3 will also run that day at *SCAPE Plaza.
Across 18 and 19 July, The Kickback will bring together street football, lifestyle activations and community programming at *SCAPE Playspace and Camping Ground. That will also include fast-paced street showdowns, celebrity 3v3 matches, freestyle performances, panna cage battles, a football marketplace curated by Cult Fave Football Shirts, and a Subbuteo tabletop football activation.
The festival will culminate in a FIFA World Cup 2026 Finals Watch Party at *SCAPE Ground Theatre in the early hours of 19 July, giving supporters a communal setting in which to watch the final live.
Alongside the broader festival, Lenovo is also launching the Re:Match Experience Store at *SCAPE, which opened on 12 June and will run until 31 July.
Officially launched by father-and-son pair Fandi Ahmad and Irfan Fandi, both of whom are Lenovo FIFA Creators, the space is designed as an immersive football and technology activation.
At the store, visitors can explore how Lenovo’s devices, services and solutions are being used in connection with the FIFA World Cup, from fan engagement to tournament operations. The space also serves as a showcase for Lenovo’s latest AI PCs, Legion gaming devices and Yoga products, including a limited FIFA World Cup 2026 special-edition line-up.
The Re:Match store is open daily from 11am to 8pm at *SCAPE #03-07. *SCAPE members can also redeem one exclusive merchandise item each via the Wildcard app, subject to verification.
