Big sales, outdoor film screenings, women behaving badly, great deals on fine dining and a whole lot more.

From a multi-label sale and a wine dinner to screenings of previously banned films and a block party, there's never a shortage of things to do in our fair city. Here are 21 events to book in to your calendar this week.

Mon, Mar 16

  • It's not too late to treat yourself to some relatively affordable fine dining nosh at Restaurant Week that runs until the weekend. The fairly lengthy list of participating restaurants includes Tiong Bahru's Ikyu, Garlibaldi and Salt Tapas Bar.
  • Shop until you drop at the Actually sale starting today. Snag goodies from Lazy Oaf, New Balance and Dr Denim.

  • If you're still suffering from post-St. Patrick's Day blues, this is your last chance to get in on the Guinness action with beer-infused tapas and bar specials around town.
  • Bluemonks Jazz Jam encourages you to pick up your instruments for a night of jazz, funk, swing and Latin tunes. There's also an open mic for those brave souls.

Wed, Mar 18

  • A 1967 British film set in Singapore, Pretty Polly, shows at Malaya Black and White. Based on the Noel Coward play, it portrays the island as a hedonistic playground for swinging adults and romantic liberation. Rawr.
