What's the name and meaning of the Chinese festival happening in Singapore right now?

Saturday is the first night and it goes for a few more nights. There's lots of drumming, chinese opera, tattooed men in colourful outfits in trances, people lighting joss sticks etc. etc.





I've asked people there what it's about but didn't really get a response. Does anyone know?
