23 May 2022, Singapore – The stage is set for a mega blockbuster race weekend, as event organiser Singapore GP Pte Ltd unveils the first wave of acts on what will be a stellar entertainment programme for the Formula 1 Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix 2022. This first announcement of Padang Stage acts features Marshmello, Westlife and Green Day to top off the scintillating action as the F1 night race gets back on track at the Marina Bay Street Circuit this 30 September to 2 October for Singapore’s biggest party in three years. The final line-up will include more than 75 performances over the three-day event across eight stages in the Circuit Park, together with roaming performers as well as an array of displays and activities to enthral crowds.

Marshmello (30 September)

Grammy-nominated Marshmello's star continues to rise as the famously masked artist breaks boundaries across the industry. With chart-topping singles and collaborations with the likes of Juice WRLD, Halsey, Demi Lovato, Bastille, Kane Brown, Selena Gomez, Jonas Brothers, and more, Marshmello has clocked almost a staggering 12 billion streams across Spotify alone. With almost 40 million monthly listeners on the platform, he is one of the top 40 most streamed artists in the world on Spotify and the third most subscribed artist on YouTube. Featured on the cover of the Forbes magazine ‘30 Under 30’ issue, Marshmello has proved to not only be an innovative producer, but a forward-thinking businessman. With his own brand of chocolate-filled marshmallows (‘Stuffed Puffs’), he has also launched a children’s entertainment channel, Mellodees. Most recently, Marshmello collaborated with the Jonas Brothers on their early summer smash Leave Before You Love Me, which peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was also nominated for the best dance/electronic album at the 2022 Grammys. Marshmello is set to perform at the Zone 4 Padang Stage on Friday, 30 September.
