Here's what to expect for NDP 2024!

Singaporeans can look forward to a series of activities leading up to our National Day - with celebrations at the Padang and Promontory @ Marina Bay on 9 August, and Heartland Celebrations at five heartland sites on 10 August.

Engagement Activities Before The National Day

Leading up to our National Day, Singaporeans can participate in the #GiveAsOneSG and #TogetherAsOneSG campaigns.

#GiveAsOneSG seeks to raise awareness of volunteering and to encourage participation in meaningful activities where Singaporeans can give back to society. This campaign is organised in partnership with SG Cares, Singapore Red Cross and Goodhood.SG. It is also part of the broader Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) and Ministry of Culture, Community & Youth (MCCY) effort to promote volunteerism in 2024, which has been designated the Year of Celebrating Volunteers.

#TogetherAsOneSG seeks to encourage Singaporeans to come together to celebrate our nation’s birthday. Campaigns include FlyOurFlag, EatAsOne, August Goes to School and Dance of the Nation. Singaporeans living overseas will also have the opportunity to celebrate through the Singapore@Home campaign. #TogetherAsOneSG is organised in partnership with the Agency for Integrated Care, Families for Life, MOE, SG Enable, SportSG, Singapore Global Network, and Yellow Ribbon.

Celebrations at the Padang and Promontory @ Marina Bay on the National Day

NDP Celebrations at the Padang

The NDP 2024 celebrations will encompass the theme "Together, As One United People” and will feature four segments:

Pre-parade: This segment will comprise performances by students from the Ministry of Education (MOE), local artistes, as well as the Red Lions.

United We Stand: The Parade and Ceremony (P&C) segment, titled "United We Stand", will highlight a combined Military Tattoo comprising the SAF Band and four Secondary Schools’ Bands. The Volunteer Contingent will also return to NDP 2024 to showcase how every Singaporean has a part to play in the defence of Singapore. P&C crowd favourites such as the choir music video, the State Flag Flypast, Salute to the Nation, the Presidential Gun Salute and Feu de Joie will be part of the parade. Audiences can also look forward to the inaugural Onward March at Padang where the marching contingents will march onto the spectator stand, bringing our parade closer to them as we all celebrate our nation’s birthday as One United People.

Together, We Are Strong: The Total Defence 40 (TD40) Dynamic Defence Display (D3), titled “Together, We Are Strong”, will be performed at the Padang for the first time. This segment showcases the integrated Whole-of-Government and community responses to possible threats across various scenarios, including air and maritime threats as well as civil emergencies and disruptions, through a coordinated show between the Padang and Marina Bay.

Our People: The Show segment, themed “Our People”, will be told across four chapters and three connecting short films. It aims to tell the stories of Our People by spotlighting the collective strength of Singaporeans and the intricate diversity and unity that defines our society through mass performances, familiar songs and emotive filmlets.

NDP Celebrations at the Bay

For the first time, the NDP celebration will extend to the Promontory @ Marina Bay, co-organised with NTUC. Attendees will be able to enjoy the fireworks and the TD40 D3 maritime and aerial segments live, watch stage performances and the live telecast of NDP at the Padang. More details on the Bay Celebration will be released subsequently.

Celebrations at the Heartlands after National Day

The festivities will continue the next day, with Heartland Celebrations on 10th August, co-organised with the People's Association. There will be five Heartland Celebration sites for Singaporeans to celebrate the nation’s 59th birthday together through community group performances on stage, static displays of SAF, SCDF and SPF vehicles, viewing of fireworks displays as well as carnival and family activities. NDP packs will also be given to those attending the celebrations. While stocks last!
