NDP 2026: Live music, exhibitions, photo spots in Kallang

The Majulah Zone, presented by Defence Collective Singapore, marks the 60th anniversary of the National Pledge with an exhibition on its origins and continued relevance.

Visitors can also take part in interactive activities and pose for photos at a themed photo booth. The zone will be open in front of the Water Sports Centre on July 25, Aug 1 and Aug 9 from 4pm to 9.30pm.

A showcase titled WE Perform, WE Go Beyond will feature live music and dance by performers across generations.

The performances will take place at Kallang Wave Mall, Level 1, on July 25, Aug 1 and Aug 9 from 4pm to 6pm.

Elsewhere, DJs and buskers will perform National Day favourites alongside songs from the 2026 NDP album, while NDP mascots will make appearances to engage the crowd.

The music performances will be held on July 25, Aug 1 and Aug 9 from 4pm to 6pm, and again from 8.15pm to 9.30pm, at Stadium Roar and around the Stadium MRT station exits.

The mascots will also be on hand at those times, around the National Stadium and the waterfront.

People in the Kallang Basin area will also be able to catch the state flag fly-past and the Presidential Gun Salute from outside the National Stadium on National Day and parade rehearsal days.

For the first time, both will take place over Kallang Basin, bringing the segments closer to those gathered across the wider precinct.

The gun salute will take place during the President’s inspection of the parade.
