Nasi lemak, chilli crab, roti prata, curry debal and more. Food will be the universal language for Chingay Parade 2025, which will be held on Feb 7 and 8 at the F1 Pit Building.
Themed "joy", the multicultural annual street parade organised by the People's Association (PA) will be one of the first major events to commemorate Singapore's 60th birthday in 2025.
There will be a sensory feast with food-inspired floats, food-themed costumes and PAssionArts installations that reflect Singapore's shared culinary heritage and the joy of shared meals.
Over 4,000 performers from 150 organisations will be taking part.
The event is set to captivate spectators with a 360-degree parade layout and a dramatic four-level stage, creating an immersive experience that encapsulates Singapore's rich cultural tapestry, artistic talent and collective spirit.
Singapore and Malaysia will jointly nominate the parade to be inscribed on Unesco's intangible cultural heritage list.
