Bridge day check
Falls on a Monday, so it makes a three-day weekend with no leave needed.
What the day is for
9 August marks separation from Malaysia in 1965. The National Day Parade — rotating between the Padang, the Float and the stadium — is watched by most of the country, with a fly-past and an evening of fireworks along the waterfront.
Do shops and banks close?
A public holiday: offices, banks and schools close; malls, hawker centres and attractions trade fully.
Getting around
MRT runs extended hours on parade night. Extensive road closures in the Marina Bay and Padang area from the afternoon.
When it falls each year
Floating holidays shift; fixed ones move only in which weekday they land on.
