Singapore is a cosmopolitan island country. Through the years, she has adapted to the ever-changing world and has played host to a number of major events. Being a multi-racial society, Singapore hosts annual events during the festive seasons like the colourful Chingay Parade during the Chinese Lunar New Year.
Cultural Events: Chingay Parade
Started in 1973 after firecrackers were banned in Singapore due to safety reasons, the event has evolved to incorporate various races and international groups.
