Another highlight that you can look forward to is the fireworks display that is designed with Singapore in mind, with a red-to-white time gradation display.
For the young (and the young at heart), you can expect to see your favourite Sanrio characters before the main show at the ball pit and check out the Gudetama Garden at the Sanrio Boulevard, open from 5pm at The Float this New Year’s Eve.
