The Singapore Badminton Hall closed its doors last month, after 56 years of service. Although it’s been gazetted as a historic site, it doesn’t mean that it will be conserved. Laokokok remembers some of the events and places associated with the Singapore Badminton Hall.

The Singapore Badminton Hall (SBH) was built in 1952 and for 56 years of history, it has seen 3 major events in it.

- Hosting the 1955 and 1958 Thomas Cup

- Vote counting station for the 1962 merger referendum

Oh though not a major event, the Rolling Stones also had a concert there in 1965
