Mid-Autumn Festival, Reimagined
Celestial Nights returns from 19 to 27 Sep, part of Sundown Science, our after-dark series. Look through the telescopes, sit under the planetarium dome, and follow the lit trail from Science Centre Singapore to Japanese Garden.
On 26 Sep, MOONBEATS: AFTERDARK takes over Science Centre's galleries. The galleries go dark. The gardens come alive. The Moon sets the rhythm. Low lights, live DJs, high-voltage science galleries. One night only of our first ever Full Moon Party.
