NTUC NDP Bay Celebrations 2025: A National Day party where youth take centre stage

Ready to turn up the energy for SG60? NTUC has just announced on 20 June 2025, that the NTUC NDP Bay Celebrations are making a comeback for the second year running!

The Bay Celebrations are part of the expanded National Day Parade (NDP) 2025 festivities, and it is all about celebrating you(th).

The theme for this year is “Majulah SG Youth”. Think big birthday bash meets youth power—an epic celebration of dreams, creativity, and everything young Singaporeans stand for.

NTUC’s message is loud and clear: #EveryYouthMatters. NTUC wants every youth about to enter the workforce to know that and it’s here to back them up with invaluable resources and support.

Because #EveryWorkerMatters.

“It is a celebration of our youths’ dreams, voice, and power to share the future. We’re spotlighting the passion and purpose of a generation that proves every youth truly matters,” said NTUC Youth Executive Secretary Natasha Choy.

Let’s party at the bay

Expect a massive turnout—about 20,000 people according to NTUC—across three events at The Promontory@Marina Bay:

• Preview Events: 26 July 2025 and 2 August 2025

• Main Event: 9 August 2025

A showstopping moment

Get ready for chills—NTUC is dropping a symbolic performance titled “Building Singapore’s Hopes and Moving Dreams Forward.”

Think light, movement, and music coming together in a full-on sensory experience.

Word on the street is there’ll be 30 youth dancers and motivators bursting into a flash mob, set to a National Day remix by DJ Red.

This immersive, multi-sensory segment is designed to inspire and unite youth in a shared message of hope, support, and collective aspiration.

Immerse yourself in the music and atmosphere

What’s a celebration without music?

This year’s line-up features a fire mix of familiar names and fresh talent, including:

• Singers: ShiGGa Shay, Regina Song, Shabir Sulthan, Shazza and Estelle Fly
  
  
• DJs: Red and Caden
  
  
• School Club Performances: SMU SoundFoundry, NTU MJ, and O School

Whether you're into beats, vocals or vibes, these performances celebrate youth contributions to nation-building and showcase Singaporean talent on the global stage.

Explore, create, reflect: You’re the main character

It’s not just about watching—you(th) are part of the story.

NTUC visited 14 institutes of higher learning earlier this year through its SG60 Care-fé roadshows to collect over 6,000 youth contributions, including well wishes, doodles, and one-word visions of the future.

These voices will come to life through three interactive installations:

• Dream Exchange: Step into a phone booth and hear anonymous messages of encouragement from fellow Singaporeans—fostering empathy, connection, and solidarity.

• Majulah SG Youth: A wall of student doodles that reflects how youth see Singapore today, in all its colour and complexity.

• The Future We Create: Words chosen by students, brought to life by AI. An immersive look at what the future could be—with you shaping it.
