BTS-themed shows and installations planned across Singapore in December
The month-long programme is the project's first and only Southeast Asian stop, coinciding with four sold-out BTS concerts.
BTS fans in Singapore will have a month of themed activities from 1 to 31 December under plans announced on 19 October by HYBE and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB). The programme, called BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE, spans attractions, museums and nightlife venues.
Its run overlaps with four sold-out National Stadium dates on the BTS WORLD TOUR 'ARIRANG': 17, 19, 20 and 22 December. Singapore will be the project's final destination of the year, following Seoul, Las Vegas, Busan, London and New York.
Among the planned attractions are fireworks accompanied by BTS music at Universal Studios Singapore in Resorts World Sentosa. Other Sentosa activities include a drone show, a music-themed rave, a race and immersive installations. Zouk Singapore will provide music and experiential programming for the opening and closing nights.
The cultural programme includes a National Gallery Singapore trail pairing BTS music with works from Pop after Pop: Art around Us, plus installations combining sound and light at the National Museum of Singapore. Jewel Changi Airport's Rain Vortex, Mandai Wildlife Reserve's Exploria and The Kallang will also host themed experiences.
Nightly red illumination is planned for landmarks near the Singapore River and Marina Bay between 8 and 22 December. Participating sites include Gardens by the Bay, Singapore Flyer and The Helix Bridge. Further details about activities and partners will be announced later.
