Gardens Extravaganza Special and other festivities
The first weekend of June sees a host of festivities in celebration of Gardens by the Bay’s fifth year,
including a dazzling evening show, Gardens Extravaganza Special, taking place in the centre of the
Supertree Grove.
In Gardens Extravaganza Special, aerial performers and dancers perform against a dramatic backdrop

pyrotechnics and a band of drones dancing across the night sky, coming together to create various
formations.
There will also be other festivities taking place during this celebratory weekend, and visitors can look
forward to a dance party, light installations, a roving parade, movie screening and food stalls.
For the rest of the month, there will be a Gardens Extravaganza video mapping show twice every night,

Blue Beauties floral display
In the year that Gardens by the Bay celebrates its fifth anniversary, a special colour in the Plant Kingdom
takes centrestage in Flower Dome. Blue may seem ubiquitous in everyday life, but true spectrum blue
is one of the most uncommon colours in plants. In the Blue Beauties floral display, the special quality
of blue blooms is celebrated as the flower field is awash in the splendour of this well-loved shade.
Flowers cherished for their vivid blue hues like agapanthus, hydrangeas and delphiniums flourish in a
French-inspired garden. Set amidst a landscape dotted with a wall trellis, topiaries, a fountain and
gazebo, these blue blooms will be complemented by the purple and pink tones of gladiolus, lupins and
foxgloves.
