Road closures around Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay for National Day Parade Rehearsals 2025 (14 Jun – 9 Aug 2025)

As with previous editions of the National Day Parade (NDP), Combined Rehearsals and National Education Shows are expected to be held every Saturday from 14 Jun – 9 Aug 2025. We anticipate that there may be road closures and restricted vehicular access around Esplanade. As traffic congestions are expected and may cause significant delays, we advise visitors to arrive at the performance venue with a comfortable lead time and to use public transport.
