Etymology edit

The mall is named as a reference to the Kallang Wave, a wave cheer similar to the Mexican wave that was commonly seen in the former National Stadium that the Singapore Sports Hub replaces.[1]

History edit

Opened on 27 June 2014, Kallang Wave Mall is part of the Singapore Sports Hub and is integrated into the National Stadium.[2]

Business at the Kallang Wave Mall was poor with original major tenants such as fashion retailer Forever 21 and electronics chain store Harvey Norman and NTUC Foodfare food court exiting the shopping mall by 2018.[3]

In 2021, Singapore-based company Esports Entertainment Asia opened an E-sports Experience Centre at Kallang Wave Mall.[4] The Centre has an area of 2,000 square feet (190 m2).[4]

Situated at the doorstep of Kallang Wave Mall is Stadium MRT station along the Circle line.[5]
