The National Day Parade (NDP) 08 will feature a show that drew inspiration from the different facets of the Singapore Spirit. Set against the city skyline, the Show will be a dazzling light, water and audiovisual spectacle.

Colonel (COL) Tay Boon Khai, Chirman of NDP 08 Show Committee, said:” The Show portrays the various aspects of the Singapore Spirit, such as determination and creativity, and encourages Singaporeans to take action to shape our future together. Where every individual is a Star in his own right.”

The Show comprises three acts, Search! Pioneers of a New Age, Sense! Artists of a New Landscape, Spring! Creators of a New World and culminates in the grand finale, Shine! Singapore Spirit.

Search! reminiscences our forefathers’ will and courage to explore. It also showcases their spirit of determination and pursuit of excellence. Sense! expresses the spirit of creativity and our vision for the future, Spring! draws inspiration from the versatility of Singaporeans, always ready to adapt to changes and on the lookout for new opportunities. The grand finale, Shines! sees all performers uniting and returning to the stage for a dramatic climax to end the show and accompanied by a spectacular fireworks display that will ignite the night sky above to illuminate each and every Singaporean’s hopes and dreams.

The theme song, “Shine for Singapore”, will be performed by two successful homegrown singers, Hady Mirza and Joi Chua

To celebrate our nation 43rd birthday, ten pledge takers representing the five pillars of Total Defence and 43 families, each spanning three generations, will lead in the pledge taking.

The Show segment is conceptualized by the NDP 08 Show Committee, in collaboration with the participating organization. About 2 950 performers will be performing.
