With celebrations being held at these heartland locations, Singaporeans can “enjoy the festivities with their respective local communities, without having to travel out of their neighbourhoods”, said MCCY.
Migrant workers can also partake in the countdown celebrations at six recreation centres – Kranji, Penjuru, Sembawang, Soon Lee, Terusan and Tuas South – and at over 10 dormitories.
Some of the activities at these locations include live performances, carnival games and lucky draw prizes.
“To accommodate the anticipated increase in this year’s festive activities, public transport operators are working on extending transport services,” said MCCY, adding that further details will be shared soon.

YEAR-LONG SG60 ACTIVITIES
There will be a year-long series of activities to mark the nation’s 60th year of independence in 2025, with the theme “Building Our Singapore Together”.
“But SG60 should not just be about celebration. It is and should be an opportunity for all of us to reflect on our shared values, who we are as Singaporeans and what we stand for,” Prime Minister Lawrence Wong, who is also finance minister, said in early November.
“It should be an opportunity for us to renew our commitment to Singapore, to do our part to build our shared future together.”
