2019/20 New Year Countdown Recap around Singapore

Singapore is grand in bidding 2019 farewell and welcoming 2020 with festive cheer. When the clock strikes 12:00, the night sky was filled with colourful lights, the streets glow, and the air was filled with lively music from live performances coming from all directions.

Some of the best 2019/2020 new year countdowns happened at Clarke Quay, Marina Bay, and STAR ISLAND. Since it’s impossible to be in two places at once, we took the liberty of compiling the photos from these event places for your eyes to feast.

Here’s the 2019/20 New Year Countdown recap around Singapore.
