Singapore National Day Parade — The Celebration of Happy Endings and New Beginnings

Singapore national day parade, an annual event that takes place every 9th of August is around the corners and now is the best time to revisit what this celebration means to Singapore. If you planning to visit the county, consider booking one of the carefully crafted Singapore tour packages.

What was started as a proud recall of Singapore’s independence has now evolved into much more — as an ode to happy endings, and the welcoming of the dawn of new hopes. Having known that Singapore is one country that truly built everything from scratch to what it is today, the importance of NDP cannot be overstated.

After setting the Float @ Marina Bay on fire last year, NDP will rock the Padang Stadium this August 9th

NDP Highlights

Relish the intriguing narratives of Singapore history, the proud parades of military forces, aerial displays flaunting the national flag, along with the spectacular displays of fireworks adorning the Singapore night skies. The recorded narrative of the country’s oath ending with lush fireworks set against the lit-up landscapes will make up for a truly electrifying experience!

A guide to getting the best of the event — here are a few places to catch the best view of the fireworks!

Marina Bay Sands Rooftop

Watch the pulsating fest from atop Marina Bay Sands, the most iconic attraction in Singapore next to the Merlion statue. The view from the rooftop swimming pool is sure to astonish you beyond your imaginations!

Gardens by the Bay Waterfront

The exclusive light works, the iconic Singapore Flyer and the waterfront reflecting the colors of the fireworks and everything about this place work together in enhancing your NDP experience.

Esplanade Bridge

Esplanade in itself is a sheer pleasure for the eyes! Now with the color explosions, locals cheering everywhere, the surreal reflections on water, this already rules out all other options!

Pan Pacific Hotel

You can actually shop at Marina Bay Sands all day, stroll through the major attractions of Singapore and come back for watching the national day fireworks while savoring your luxurious dinner.

Needless to say, Singapore knows how to approach such a formal idea in a fun-filled and trendy manner. Now you have every reason to drop everything and fly off to the lion city with Pickyourtrail’s Singapore tour package and exclusive planning — just to get a glimpse of this event and we promise it’s more than how you imagine it to be.
