Countdown to 2022 Safely With Fireworks Display At Your Heartland Homes

Hi Huneybees,

It's time to send 2021 away and sadly this year it will be the second year running with no Marina Bay Countdown fireworks display. The Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) has strongly urged people to "avoid crowded places and enjoy the New Year's Eve celebration from home".

But that doesn't mean that we won't be able to catch some sparkly fireworks in action as we countdown to 2022. 

The People's Association of Singapore (PA) has organised smaller firework displays to be set off in the heartland at the first strike of 2022. You can watch these multi-coloured delights from the comfort of your home if you live in these locations: Bedok, Bishan, Boon Lay, Buona Vista, Chua Chu Kang, Hougang, Kembangan-Chai Chee, Sembawang, Tampines and Woodlands.

PA's Grassroots Organisations (GROs) will also be organizing 15 virtual year-end countdown community programs to connect residents in a safe way and as a community. Ranging from musical skits, comedy shows, and singing and dance performances, to games and quizzes.

Find out more about your neighbourhood's virtual celebrations by visiting the Facebook pages of the GRCs you live in.
