Looking for a high-tech way to keep the kids engaged this April? RoboFest 2026 is Singaporeâs first-ever festival dedicated entirely to robotics and AI! Designed specifically for curious families, this four-day event lets children move beyond the screen to touch, play with, and even program real robots. Whether they are watching a robot dog perform a live comedy show or meeting the gallery robots, it is an immersive look into the "tomorrow" they are already growing up in. Families can discover how humans and robots will collaborate as partners in daily life, from robotic companions enhancing our homes to AI assistants transforming how we work and live together.
The festival is packed with hands-on experiences, from the high-energy Robot Boxing to the Learning Hub, where kids can get a first look at the new LEGOÂź Education Computer Science & AI Kit. Children can also engage in activities⯠to programme the humanoid robot "TonyBot," try drone coding fundamentals, and understand how cameras process visual data. If you have older children interested in STEM, don't miss the RoboCup Singapore finals happening over the weekend, where they can witness top-tier teams compete in the national selections for the World Championships.
