Where to watch the National Day Parade 2026 fireworks
Whether you're planning a picnic or simply chasing the best view, these are some public spots to watch the NDP 2026 fireworks.
For those planning to enjoy the National Day Parade 2026 fireworks, several public spots offer free viewing opportunities. The most popular location is the lookout decks along Kallang Basin, which provide an open waterfront view directly towards the National Stadium. This spot was particularly busy during recent NDP rehearsals. Nearby Kallang Riverside Park offers wide views across the water and has public toilets and grassy areas for picnics, making it a popular choice among families.
Tan Jong Rhu Promenade, although lacking a functioning lookout tower, provides a longer stretch of waterfront overlooking the Kallang Basin. Kallang Wave Walkway, also known as Cat 99, offers one of the closest public views of the National Stadium and serves as a popular spot for fireworks. Level 2 of the Water Sports Centre provides elevated views, though it can be crowded.
The Golden Mile Complex, an iconic building, offers elevated viewpoints but is less close to the action. Public housing estates around Kallang and Bendemeer have rooftop gardens and sky terraces that offer quieter, less crowded views. Keep in mind to be respectful of residents and maintain noise levels when using these locations.
