Spectacular Display of Fireworks at Midnight Around Marina Bay

This year, the highly-anticipated New Year’s Eve fireworks promise to be even more spectacular than previous years, as they will be launched from a more central location.

This strategic move will ensure that a larger audience can enjoy a captivating viewing of the fireworks from all around. 

Produced by the same team that created the fireworks musical, Star Island, these fireworks will illuminate the Bay at intervals during the hour leading up to midnight.

The fireworks will span 12 minutes, with the grand finale aiming to celebrate the unyielding spirit of Singaporeans as we eagerly embrace the future.

Those attending can also look forward to a dazzling display of colour-changing fireworks synchronised with specially curated music, enhancing the overall sensory experience.
