During the Rainforest Festival, held from 27 November to 3 December 2025, Banyan Group will donate 20 per cent of proceeds from all paid experiences, including guided tours and exclusive dining experiences, to the President’s Challenge. This will be complemented by Banyan Group’s own contribution and a dollar-for-dollar matching of festival ticket proceeds.
A series of carefully curated paid experiences and exclusive offers will take place across the Mandai Wildlife Reserve, Singapore’s iconic wildlife and nature destination.
The programme includes behind-the-scenes guided tours led by wildlife experts, immersive close-up encounters with the parks’ iconic animal residents, as well as thoughtfully designed ecological and culinary experiences at Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree, part of the Banyan Group portfolio. These initiatives not only reflect the Rainforest Festival’s celebration of sustainable design, biodiversity, and well-being, but also support a meaningful charitable cause.
The inaugural Rainforest Festival is a week-long celebration marking the grand opening of Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree—the 100th resort worldwide for Banyan Group and a significant milestone symbolising the brand’s homecoming to Singapore. In the spirit of giving back, the festival supports the President’s Challenge, which benefits 60 programmes across 52 charities and social service organisations.
All festival ticket proceeds will be donated in full to the President’s Challenge and matched dollar-for-dollar by Banyan Group. In addition, 20 per cent of proceeds from paid experiences will be contributed by Mandai Wildlife Group and the resort, with a further dollar-for-dollar match by the Singapore Government under the SG60 Matching Grants.
