What To Expect

Gardens by the Bay

We'll explore the dazzling 40th anniversary lantern displays at River Hongbao, starting with the lucky "40" Welcome Arch. I'll explain the stories behind the Ten Thousand Horses display and why the God of Fortune is holding cabbage (hint: it's about wealth!). We'll catch cultural performances, check out the carnival rides, and snap Instagram-worthy photos at the best spots. Then we'll head to Marina Bay Sands for the spectacular Spectra water and light show to cap off the night. Expect lantern magic, local insights, plenty of laughs, and enough good fortune to last the whole year!
