Better known for its nightlife options, riverside lifestyle precinct Clarke Quay is getting a new lease of life as a day-and-night destination after a $62 million rejuvenation project.

Besides existing tenants like nightclub Zouk Singapore, the precinct which has already seen 93 per cent of its tenancy spaces occupied now also includes a FairPrice Finest and an upcoming fitness studio as part of its refresh.

CQ @ Clarke Quay's official reopening on April 26 comes almost two years after a rejuvenation exercise that kicked off in August 2022.

The aim was to extend the appeal of CQ from a nightlife attraction to a vibrant day-and-night destination, said CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust (CICT) management chief executive Tony Tan at the launch event.

CQ is owned by CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust and managed by CapitaLand Investment.

As part of the revamp, CQ @ Clarke Quay is split into three zones namely The Riverfront Warehouses (Blocks A and D), The (Block B) and The Circuit (Blocks C and E), housing around 60 dining, retail and lifestyle concepts of which half are new.

Many of the new food and beverage additions to the area are open till late, or round the clock, such as 24-hour modern kopitiam SG Hawker by the Fei Siong Group, and Mexican restaurant Senor Taco, which is open till 3am on Fridays and Saturdays.
