Chingay is the largest annual street festival in Singapore, celebrating the Lunar New Year festival since 1973.
This year’s event is particularly significant as it is part of the major activities to celebrate the country’s 50th National Day.
The highlight of the event is the participation of around 1,000 foreign artists from 14 countries and territories, which is expected to not only introduce other nation’s cultural identities to Singaporeans, but also help enhance mutual understanding between these countries.
