This year’s main celebrations take place at the Padang and will extend to The Promontory in Marina Bay.
SINGAPORE - Local artiste Benjamin Kheng will perform 2024’s National Day Parade theme song, titled Not Alone, which aims to validate the hardship Singaporeans have faced throughout their history and promote unity and support to face the future.
Themed “Together, As One United People”, NDP 2024 aims to underscore the collective strength of Singaporeans and rally citizens to shape its future, said the chairman of the parade’s executive committee, Brigadier-General Wilson Low. The stars are trailed by six ascending strokes that represent Total Defence, Singapore’s long-running national defence campaign, which entered its 40th year in 2024.In 2024, the event space has been expanded to the Promontory area – an open space near the Marina Bay Financial Centre – where more spectators can gather to get a closer look at the fireworks, and maritime and aerial displays over the bay.
Dynamic LED wristbands, made popular at concerts by Taylor Swift and Coldplay, will be handed out to audience members to create a vibrant light display from the stands during the parade. Spectators will witness the Total Defence 40 Dynamic Defence Display, a segment that showcases Singapore’s response to threats in the air, on land and sea, as well as civil emergencies and disruptions, in a coordinated demonstration across both the Padang and Marina Bay.
