With its proximity to the historic Padang, the venue for this year’s National Day Parade, Esplanade sets the stage for a National Day celebration befitting of a nation’s 40th anniversary!

Expect a celebration with a difference with a host of poignant musical performances and visual arts installations. The five-day celebration takes us on a musical journey through time over the past four decades and into the future, spotlighting our talents of tomorrow. To add to the festive ambience, Esplanade will be suitably transformed into a sea of red and white and its distinctive domes brilliantly lit in alternating red and white through the use of lighting effects.

• 5 - 9 August 2005

Esplanade Waterfront, Stage@Powerhouse, Forecourt and Concourse

It’s all happening along the Waterfront and under the stars at Esplanade as we countdown to Singapore’s 40th birthday!

Esplanade’s scenic Waterfront will be a flurry of activity with free outdoor concerts and roving artists every evening. In line with the National Day theme ‘The Future Is Ours to Make’, we will kick off with a series of outdoor concerts celebrating the dynamism of our youth who will shape the future of Singapore. The young musicians, all under 25 years of age, will be sharing their personal aspirations and hopes for the future through song. The winners of this year’s Singapore Youth Festival’s talent quest will also be another highlight. So, take your pick from jazz to hip-hop to rock, plus some heartfelt renditions of national day songs at Stage@Powerhouse.

In addition, be sure to catch our nightly burst of confetti that will shower the Waterfront with colour and magic, delighting young and old alike. We bring the vibrancy of street art into our indoor spaces by gathering the best graffiti art from local youths. The public will also be invited to pen their personal wishes for Singapore through a giant chalk ‘greeting card’ for Singapore at the Forecourt.

• 9 August, 4 pm, Concert Hall

National Day Concert

A special Concert Hall performance on National Day takes on a contemplative theme as we reflect on our nation’s 40 years of achievements. Join us on this musical travel through time with 40-year old Tan as he traces his growing years and the aspirations of Singapore and Singaporeans. Your travel companions are none other than some of Singapore’s favourite artists such as Kumar, Michaela, Dawn Ho and Rahimah Rahim.

After the concert, the mood builds up with live telecasts of the National Day Parade in both the Concert Hall and along the Waterfront, which will also be the choice spot to catch the spectacular fireworks display organised by the NDP committee. However, the party doesn’t stop here. Join us as the next day with one of Singapore’s best young talents, Corrinne May, as she returns for a special one-night only homecoming concert at Esplanade Concert Hall.

Join us as Esplanade ushers in Singapore’s 40th year of independence, with one birthday celebration for all to remember!

Singapore As I See It – A Graffiti Presentation

5 – 7 August 2005

Graffiti is regarded as an unwanted nuisance, or as vandalism that must be repaired. However, graffiti art is a form of self-expression and creativity.

As Singapore turns 40 this year, what are the impressions the younger generation has of her in the years to come? What about a foreigner? What does he see in Singapore?

In conjunction with the National Day celebrations, Millenia Walk will be flying in Jai Moodie, a very talented graffiti artist from London.

He will be expressing his impressions of Singapore using graffiti art; painting on wooden boards the different aspects of Singapore as he sees it. We will be inviting local graffiti artists to join him in this creation.

In addition, there will be a workshop for shoppers to experience the fun of graffiti art.

The wooden boards will form the backdrop of the Singapore Fashion Designers Showcase. This runway show will highlight the versatility and quality of Singapore’s fashion talents and labels.
