This year's Chingay Parade is centred around the theme "Blossom", to signify the blossoming of individuals and communities. Some highlights you can look forward to:

• A 230 metre long floor projection (Singapore's longest floor projection for a street parade yet) that will light up the Chingay Garden with immersive graphics and visuals
• Photo-ops galore at PAssionArts Street with festival art installations and various craft activities
• Make a pit stop at the F1 Pit Building to check out blossom-themed installations made from recycled materials by innovative students from seven primary and secondary schools
