2. Marina Bay Singapore Countdown 2024
Get ready to be mesmerised by stunning fireworks displays at Marina Bay. This year's Marina Bay Countdown will feature an artisanal fireworks display produced by the team behind STAR ISLAND, the fireworks musical that mesmerised crowds last year.
Choreographed to tell a story of reflection and hope, the fireworks will light up the Bay across three chapters, unfolding at intervals in the hour leading up to midnight, complete with specially curated music played through speakers around the Bay to provide a sensory feast for the eyes and ears.
Kicking off with a tribute to the past year’s challenges and triumphs, the fireworks will then herald the promise of new beginnings, culminating in a 12-minute grand finale celebrating Singaporeans’ unyielding spirit as we embrace the future.
