Tomorrow marks Singapore’s 60th National Day! National Day Parade (NDP) tickets this year seem even harder to get than concert tickets! 🎟️ The ballot is completely random, and earlier this year.
But don’t worry—even if you didn’t win a ticket, you can still join the nation in celebrating this once-in-a-generation 60th anniversary with the spectacular annual fireworks and many other activities.
Record-Breaking Parade Line-Up!
Get ready for a full ceremonial showcase featuring:
Presidential and Prime Minister’s arrival ceremonies; State Flag flypast and salute; The thrilling “Feu de Joie” rifle volley; 21-gun salute at the Bay area; Military bands and student orchestras performing national favourites throughout the event
Themed Performances
The 2025 National Day Parade will span across the Padang and Marina Barrage, presented in four themed segments.
Performers will include Kit Chan, JJ Lin, and more, with the grand finale featuring the entire nation singing “Home” 🎶 while fireworks light up the Marina Bay skyline.
Heartland Celebration Sites – Fun for the Whole Family
Across the island, five “Heartland” celebration zones will be set up:
Central – Open field next to Junction 8, Bishan
North-East – Open area near One Punggol
North-West – Open space beside Yishun Futsal Arena
South-East – Open field next to Wisma Geylang Serai

Use to watch the parade pass by my house in town back then and sneaking into Padang area to watch whenever there is a chance.
