Singapore's National Day Parade 2025: Excitement builds as crowds gather at Marina Bay and Padang ahead of event
SINGAPORE: Thousands of people turned up in force with their umbrellas, picnic mats and portable fans at Marina Bay and around the Padang ahead of Singapore's 60th birthday bash on Saturday (Aug 9). Despite the sweltering heat, prime spots to catch the National Day Parade (NDP) live show and the fireworks around Marina Bay were mostly packed by 3pm, with those sporting red and white in high spirits. This is the first time the NDP live show will extend, as part of an 'expanded canvas', from the Padang to Marina Bay. People gathering at Merlion Park ahead of the National Day Parade on Aug 9. - Photo: ST About 200,000 people are expected to throng Marina Bay, while an estimated 27,000 spectators will be at the Padang, where the main show will take place. Delivery driver Nasser Ali, 40, had arrived with his family of seven at the Marina Bay waterfront promenade at about 2.30pm to snag a front-row seat to the festivities, along with two other families. Delivery driver Nasser Ali (in beige hat) arrived with his family and friends at the Marina Bay waterfront promenade at about 2.30pm. The group of about 15 had come prepared with camping chairs, umbrellas, portable fans, a foldable table, and books and games to keep the children busy while waiting. 'This is our first time doing this, so we are quite excited to be spending time together this way with our friends and their children. I think we will have a great view of the fireworks,' said Nasser. Others had also begun gathering early to secure a vantage point for the much-anticipated fireworks display. Filipina domestic workers Rhowena Galanza, Melba Pagunsan and Evelyn Villanueva, who were perched under their umbrellas by the Marina Bay waterfront, said they arrived at 10am, having planned the outing for a few weeks. The trio, who live near one another in the Clementi area, said they caught the festivities around Marina Bay over the past two weekends - when two of the last NDP previews took place - and enjoyed the fireworks and atmosphere. Armed with food - a large rotisserie chicken, rice and snacks - they said they have been gathering every National Day for almost 20 years. People gathering outside the Esplanade ahead of the National Day Parade on Aug 9. - Photo: ST Amid the 31 deg C heat and then thunder that was heard rumbling around 3.20pm, Rhowena said: 'Rain or shine, we'll be here!' She also said her group of friends made a makeshift shelter in 2024 when it started pouring amid the festivities, so they were undeterred by the prospect of rain. The waterfront at Marina Bay was replete with activities that began as early as 10am, from interactive booths to carnival games and food stalls. At a food fair along Bayfront Avenue, crowds were fairly thin at about 3pm, though more people were starting to enter. Tourists, Zenura Clifford, 53, and Laurence Clifford, 63, had come from Ilo Ilo in the Philippines to celebrate Singapore's 60th birthday. The couple, who were in Singapore during the Republic's 50th birthday in 2015, said they were hoping to get some snacks before finding a spot to await the fireworks. 'We love Singapore so much that we visit about four times a year, and National Day here is really special. We are excited for the show,' said Zenura, who is self-employed. The party atmosphere was also in the air near the Padang, as hordes of people in red and white streamed in from City Hall MRT station, many with flags in hand and children in tow. One of them was Serena Chen, 34, who arrived at about 2pm, more than three hours before the parade was due to start. She will watch the parade with her son, nine; daughter, six; and 68-year-old mother. 'We were so excited that we got tickets to the NDP this year, because the last time my children saw the parade was years ago. They were still babies then, so they could not remember much,' said Chen, a financial adviser. 'It is especially special because it is Singapore's 60th birthday. My daughter is also really excited about seeing the fireworks in person.' For Sukainah Shahri, 33, her children are most looking forward to the mobile column. The NDP 2025 mobile column will showcase 170 air, land and maritime assets from the Singapore Armed Forces, Home Team, and Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore. Sukainah, who works in healthcare, said her husband had booked a room for the family at a hotel nearby. 'Before the fireworks, we are taking the kids to see the mobile column, as it makes its way towards the Padang,' said Sukainah, who has three children aged three, four and six. 'We usually catch the NDP on TV, but this year, we wanted it to be special for the kids. So we can't wait for tonight,' she said. - The Straits Times/ANN

Singapore's 60th birthday: No ticket, no problem – here are some spots to soak up National Day vibes
SINGAPORE: Are you trying to make plans for Saturday (Aug 9) to join in the National Day festivities but have no idea where to go? The Straits Times has you covered. For the first time, the National Day Parade (NDP) show will extend from the Padang to Marina Bay as part of an 'expanded canvas' to mark Singapore's 60th birthday. Members of the public can catch the aerial display, fireworks as well as the descent of the Red Lions onto the Padang and naval divers into the waters of Marina Bay. There will also be light projections on UOB Building Plaza 1 and The Fullerton Hotel, allowing people outside the Padang to be part of the National Day experience. Three venues with free activities There are a few non-ticketed venues where the public can soak in the festivities while watching a live telecast of the parade: The Meadow at Gardens by the Bay, Marina Barrage and the Singapore Sports Hub. At The Meadow, visitors can play nostalgic games in larger-than-life formats, savour complimentary traditional snacks, take part in interactive art activities, and watch live performances. Over at Marina Barrage, people can try their hand at upcycling unwanted fabrics or jars, take on sustainability-themed challenges, and learn more about the environment through interactive booths. Last but not least, those at the Singapore Sports Hub can participate in fitness activities, buy handcrafted products from an artisanal marketplace, and take their fur babies to a pet fair. Look up... it's the Red Lions! From around five minutes before 6pm, a team of seven parachutists from the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), better known as the Red Lions, will leap from a height of about 3,050m above the Esplanade. They will then get into their signature ring free-fall formation and perform a 'bomb burst' manoeuvre – complete with red smoke trails – before landing. To catch a glimpse of their descent onto the Padang, Singaporeans can look skywards from the nearby Victoria Theatre, the rooftop of Marina Square or from Jubilee Bridge. They can also watch the fighter jets performing their enhanced salute to the nation and two special aerial displays that mark Singapore's 60th birthday. Fireworks fans should also linger at these spots as they provide a clear view of the explosive, colourful displays that will light up the sky from around 7.35pm onwards. Watch naval divers splash down Around 10 minutes before 6pm, just before the Red Lions leap, seven naval divers from the Republic of Singapore Navy will jump from a helicopter about 1,830m above the ground. They will take about five minutes to free-fall – one after another – and deploy their parachutes, before landing in the waters of Marina Bay in front of the Esplanade. They will approach the waters from Jubilee Bridge before getting onto small floating platforms that will move them to an area near the Merlion to perform a combined salute with the Red Lions. Those hoping to spot the naval divers jumping into Marina Bay and watch the fireworks thereafter can try their luck at Merlion Park, Jubilee Bridge, the waterfront promenade in front of the Esplanade as well as Helix Bridge. They can also take a closer look at the multi-axis fly-past, which involves six fighter jets flying in from opposite directions – three from above the National Gallery Singapore and three from Marina Bay – before zooming past each other over the Padang and flying almost vertically upwards. Get up close with tanks Families with young children may be interested in catching a glimpse of the mobile column, which showcases 170 air, land and maritime assets from the SAF, Home Team, and Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore. Before 5pm, the mobile column will be stationed in the area near Exit C of Esplanade MRT station. At around the same time, the Uncasing of Colours ceremony – a symbolic military tradition – will take place at Marina Square. Before 7pm, the mobile column will set off for the Padang, and Singaporeans waiting along Nicoll Highway – where Exit C of Esplanade MRT station is – may be able to catch it as it makes its way towards the Padang. And 10 to 20 minutes after 7pm, after the mobile column has done its round at the Padang, some assets will go past Funan mall in North Bridge Road, while others will exit via Esplanade Drive and Fullerton Road. Members of the public can head down earlier to secure a good viewing spot, as some of these spaces may be cordoned off closer to the start of the parade due to crowd control measures. Getting there According to the National Day traffic advisory posted by the NDP 2025 executive committee, roads such as Republic Avenue, sections of Crawford Street, Beach Road, Republic Boulevard, Nicoll Highway, North Bridge Road, Esplanade Drive, St Andrew's Road, Parliament Place, Supreme Court Lane and Coleman Street will be closed. For a full list of road closures on Aug 9, refer to The NDP website states that taxis and private-hire vehicles will be diverted due to road closures in the surrounding areas, and cautioned Singaporeans to plan their journeys accordingly. It also advises those who are attending the parade to take public transport instead, given the large volume of people. For those who want to drive, there are parking options in Bugis such as at Bugis Junction and Bugis+ shopping centres as well as the National Library and Duo Tower. Alternatively, they can park their vehicles in Dhoby Ghaut, at malls such as Plaza Singapura and The Cathay. These are just an MRT ride and a short walk from the suggested vantage points. Singaporeans watching the parade from Marina Bay should check the Crowd@Marina Bay map at to view real-time crowd levels, and areas that may be closed due to crowd build-up. - The Straits Times/ANN
