One of our favourite things about National Day is the dazzling light-up of cultural monuments around Singapore. You can expect the same display to happen this year at the Bras Basah.Bugis (BBB) precinct, where six historical and culturally significant landmarks will come alive with the National Flag colours of red and white for the third year running.
At night from August 1 to 27, head down to catch the National Museum of Singapore, Cathedral of the Good Shepherd, Central Fire Station, The Cathay, National Design Centre, and Stamford Arts Centre come aglow. These attractions – four of which are National Monuments – were chosen for their rich heritage and significant place in our national identity. As these buildings are illuminated in red and white, you are invited to celebrate our collective dreams and aspirations as well as our hopes for the future.
The National Day Light-Up will happen every night from August 1 to 27, from 7.30pm to midnight. But you can already catch the National Museum of Singapore's display now till August 10. So, grab your friends, family, and camera – and head down to join in the national birthday festivities.
