NS Square construction begins, set for 2027 completion

Once completed, it will have a seating capacity of about 30,000.

NS Square commenced construction and is slated for completion in 2027.

The redevelopment of Marina Bay’s floating platform as NS Square was first announced in 2017 by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong during the NS50 celebrations.

NS Square will feature a new permanent stage deck and grandstand with a seating capacity of about 30,000 people.

The venue can host large-scale events, including the National Day Parade (NDP) and the Singapore Countdown in Marina Bay.

It also can hold public events such as concerts, competitions, and community and recreational activities.

The NS Square is a tribute to all past and present national servicemen and their families, who contributed to Singapore’s peace and prosperity.
