Fireworks musical spectacular STAR ISLAND returns after a two-year hiatus to usher in the new year in Singapore! STAR ISLAND is one of the world’s leading fireworks entertainment companies; and the event is organised by Avex Asia this year.
The 80-minute display of sound and colours is held in conjunction with Marina Bay Singapore Countdown (MBSC) at The Float at Marina Bay. Expect a futuristic take on Japan’s Hanabi (Japanese for ‘fireworks’) summer tradition, where spectators gather over food and drinks to enjoy the fireworks.
For its show in Singapore, STAR ISLAND will be choreographed to an immersive soundtrack, with a new storyline titled LIFE – Beyond The Time – that follows a Space and Time theme.
Baby, You’re A Firework
Audience members will be in for a treat of specially hand-crafted fireworks designs never before seen in Singapore – the ‘Gradation Shell‘ fireworks. This is an effect designed specifically with Singapore in mind with a red-to-white time gradation display.
There will also be 10 special firework bursts that were awarded the ‘Prime Minister’s Award‘ earlier in the year at Japan’s Omagari Fireworks Competition, Japan’s Olympics of fireworks. Designed to angle the fireworks to bloom most beautifully at The Float at Marina Bay; audience members will enjoy the best, unobstructed view of these fireworks, dazzling the night skies outside of Japan for the first time.
Sanrio Stars
Sanrio fans can also expect appearances of Sanrio characters, including a live pre-show gig by DJ Hello Kitty, who will get fans to move to the beat, a Sanrio-themed family-friendly area, and more.
Prequel to STAR ISLAND
Held at the Marina Bay Sands Event Plaza, the pre-event fair is open to the public for free until 30 December (Friday).
With plenty of family-friendly activities, visitors will also experience a snippet what STAR ISLAND, has to offer — a glimpse of the STAR ISLAND experience with past editions of the show playing back on LED screens, surprise Sanrio elements as well as F&B offerings.
Check out booths from JCB, Sanrio, Penfolds and Jim Beam Highball which will be set up at the Event Plaza. For families and Sanrio fans alike, there will be a Sanrio characters Pop-up store decorated with Sanrio characters and a special DJ Hello Kitty x STAR ISLAND collaboration merchandise that will be available for purchase.
P.s. JCB members get a free drink at the bar when you show your JCB card to the staff!
