Hari Raya Festivities Include National Stadium Roof Light Up On 22 Apr

Hari Raya Puasa falls on Saturday (22 Apr) in Singapore this year and to celebrate, the National Stadium roof will be having a festive light-up.

The light display will showcase the changes that have taken place in Singapore, from our kampung days to the metropolis we see today.

The Singapore Sports Hub said in addition, there will be portraits of Malay and Muslim communities that have remained steadfast.

While the announcement made on 17 Apr is sparse, what we do know is that the celebrations will take place from 7.30pm to 10pm this Saturday (22 Apr).

You can expect to watch a dazzling display of lights from the roof of the National Stadium that night.

If you’re looking for a place to mark the start of the Raya festivities, look no further than Kallang, where the National Stadium is.

The light display will depict the change of time from kampung to city, the Singapore Sports Hub said.
