Day-by-day Singapore calendar for Mon 2 Jun → Sun 8 Jun 2026 — the first full week of June. Heaviest day is Fri 6 Jun with the NDP ticket ballot closing + the FairPrice durian pop-up opening at Elias Mall + the hotel brunch + steakhouse Father's Day booking cutoff all landing the same day.

If you only have time for one thing this week: decide your Father's Day format + book restaurants by Fri 6 Jun. Skip to the 19-days-out FD update for the full action plan.

### 🟢 Mon 2 Jun — June school holidays week 1 + FD booking sweet spot

June school holidays kick off (running through Sat 27 Jun). Crowd at major attractions (zoo, Snow City, theme parks) is peak this week because international school summer break starts simultaneously with MOE break.

Father's Day countdown: 19 days out. Today is the natural moment to decide format with the family chat — lunch or dinner, cuisine, party size — before calling restaurants Tue-Thu.

Also active: Haidilao VivoCity Buy-1-Get-3-Free off-peak meats deal still running through Fri 12 Jun.

### 🟡 Tue 3 Jun — call restaurants day

Standard work day. Call your top-3 Father's Day restaurant picks during business hours (11-2pm / 4-9pm). Have party size + preferred slot + 2 backup times ready.

June school holidays activity check: if you haven't booked IKEA PLAY DATE for the kids yet, do it this evening — prime slots fill ~1 week ahead.

### 🟠 Wed 4 Jun — second-priority bookings

Pre-NDP-deadline standard day. Use today for the second-priority bookings + start planning the at-home Plan B (hotel takeaway hamper, premium delivery, neighbourhood zi-char).

### 🟡 Thu 5 Jun — FairPrice durian opens at Elias Mall + FD payment day

FairPrice $1.95 Kampung Durian opens at ELIAS MALL ATRIUM (Pasir Ris) — Day 1 of the final roving weekend of the durian pop-up series. 9am opening, first 300 pax daily, max 2 durians per pax.

Best access: Pasir Ris MRT + bus 89 or 354. Multi-storey parking available (~S$2/30min). Best timing: arrive 8am for the Day-1 morning queue. Friday Day 1 has the freshest stock + larger pieces.

→ Full FairPrice durian schedule + first-timer guide

Also today: Pay credit-card holds for hotel FD-weekend reservations + order hotel takeaway hamper if going Plan B (Fullerton Bay closes its hamper deadline tomorrow at ~8 Jun).

### 🔴 Fri 6 Jun — the heavy day

Three things converge:

1. NDP 2026 TICKET BALLOT CLOSES 12pm. Last call. Apply at ndp.gov.sg via Singpass — takes 10 minutes. Citizens + PRs only. Results notified 15-17 Jun via SMS + email. If you've delayed this all month, today is your last day.

→ Full NDP ticket guide

2. Hotel brunch + steakhouse Father's Day booking HARD CUTOFF. If you don't have a confirmed booking by 5pm today, pivot to: Greenwood Fish Market walk-in (their 'no set menu' model still works through FD week), Orchid Live Seafood (Khatib or Jalan Kelulut), family Cantonese (until 13 Jun), or hotel takeaway hamper.

3. FairPrice durian Elias Mall Day 2. Saturday tomorrow is the second-busiest day; Friday morning has the better stock-availability + smaller queue.

4. GSS 2026 likely launches today. Based on 2024 + 2025 pattern (Fri launches), Sephora + Tangs + Robinsons + MBS Premium Outlets may go live with their GSS-branded promos. Watch their apps + websites this morning.

### 🟣 Sat 7 Jun — Elias durian Day 2 + GSS launch weekend

FairPrice durian Day 2. Saturday is typically the busiest day at FairPrice durian pop-ups — arrive 8-8:30am for a solid spot in the first-300 cap.

GSS 2026 launch weekend (likely). If GSS officially launched yesterday, today is the first full retail day. Top shopping priorities by category: - Premium skincare — Sephora - Fashion — Tangs + Robinsons + Metro - Electronics — Best Denki + Courts - Home goods — BHG + Isetan

The Orchard Road mall cluster (ION, Wisma, 313, Paragon, Takashimaya) will be busiest. Skip Orchard from 12-3pm if you want to actually shop without crowd friction; go to Westgate, JEM, or VivoCity instead.

### 🟫 Sun 8 Jun — Elias durian Day 3 + quiet wind-down

FairPrice durian FINAL DAY. Sunday at Elias Mall is the lightest crowd day of the entire 3-weekend pop-up series. Arrive 8:30am-9am for a comfortable queue + still-decent durian stock.

After today, the $1.95 durian roving pop-up is done. The next FairPrice durian pop-up historically appears around September.

Father's Day countdown: 13 days. By tonight you should have your FD restaurant confirmed in writing (email or WhatsApp screenshot). If not, pivot to hotel takeaway hamper (order by Tue 10 Jun) or family Cantonese walk-in.
