The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Central Band was formed during the merger of the tri-service bands in 1994 to serve as the nation's premier military band. Staffed by professional military musicians, the band performs for Presidential events and all State Welcome Ceremonies for visiting foreign dignitaries.

As one of the world’s most prolific military bands, the SAF Central Band has performed in countries including Germany, Japan, China, Switzerland, and the USA.

As musical ambassadors of the SAF, the band fosters close relations with the local and international populace, furthers Singapore's defence policy space and projects the SAF's professionalism through musical excellence.
