CNY Countdown

River Hongbao 2026 (春到河畔2026四十周年庆) marks the 40th anniversary of Singapore’s iconic annual Chinese New Year (CNY) celebrations. Making a grand return for 10 days from 15 - 24 February 2026, the festival will once again light up Gardens by the Bay (GBTB) as it ushers in the Year of the Horse. Continuing its long-standing traditions, both locals and international visitors can gather at the iconic gardens in the Marina Bay precinct to immerse themselves in the festive atmosphere. Event highlights include four nights of fireworks, a countdown celebration on CNY Eve, photo opportunities with the majestic God of Fortune statue, as well as dazzling horse-themed and Singapore multicultural-themed lanterns, lights, and intricate festive decorations.
