Camping at Marina Bay isn’t the only way you’ll get a good eyeful of Singapore’s New Year’s Eve countdown fireworks. To welcome 2025, there will be fireworks set off at multiple heartland locations across the Little Red Dot as part of the islandwide One Countdown 2025 celebrations on December 31, 2024. Skip the packed commute to town, and feel the community spirit as you usher in the new year at a location close to home in the presence of your fellow neighbourhood mates.
There’s a total of 17 heartland locations with fireworks in public neighbourhood spaces:
- Ang Mo Kio – hardcourt in front of Mayflower Market & Food Centre
- Bedok – Bedok Stadium
- Bishan – Bishan Active Park (Bishan Street 25)
- Boon Lay – Boon Lay Place
- Bukit Batok – SkyPeak @ Bukit Batok
- Bukit Panjang – Senja-Cashew CC and Pang Sua Pond
- Choa Chu Kang – Keat Hong Plaza beside Concord Primary School
- Hougang – open field beside Hougang MRT Exit B
- Jalan Besar – King George’s Avenue
- MacPherson – hardcourt opposite MacPherson Community Club
- Marine Parade – 46 Marina Crescent
- Marsiling – Woodlands Stadium
- Punggol West – Punggol West Community Square (beside Block 218 Sumang Walk coffeeshop)
- Tampines – Our Tampines Hub Festive Plaza
- Queenstown – outdoor space around Margaret Market
- Woodlands – Woodlands Drive 64 (next to Spectra Secondary School)
- Yishun – open area beside FutsalArena @ Yishun
Aside from fireworks, each area will have its own line-up of live music performances, carnival games, and other fringe activities, so head down earlier if you’d like to be a part of the pre-party. Check out the highlights for your neighbourhood here.
If your estate happens to not be on the list – or if you’re still keen to join the masses for larger-scale festivities – we’ve got you covered as well. Other than Marina Bay, you can also park yourself at Sentosa, which will have not one but two sites for countdown fireworks this year, or Kallang, where Mediacorp’s Let’s Celebrate 2025 will be held.
