Welcoming 2014 @ The Marina Bay Singapore Countdown 2014

| |
Hi Huneybees,



HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!!!



Isn't this beautiful? The whole Ocean Financial Centre was "lighted up in flames" as we countdown to 2014. This is the first time a countdown mechanism has been put in place to usher in the New Year in Singapore, a concept borrowed from the New York Times Square New Year Countdown.


This year's countdown celebration was indeed an amazing start to the new year! As the Official Blogger of Marina Bay Singapore Countdown 2014, I got to roam around freely and I was assigned one of the best spots to view the whole Marina Bay, visual arts installation and fireworks!



Singaporeans' mood for New Year celebration were not dampened in spite of the downpour earlier in the day. As the sun sets, more and more families started to gather along the Marina Bay to get the best "seats" to watch the magnificent fireworks. The spirit of celebration was also supported by booths set up along The Marina Bay Promenade to cater for last minute shopping and hungry stomachs.


For hubby and I, while waiting for the countdown, stationed ourselves at The Promontory to enjoy the admission free "Celebrate The World" Concert, hosted by Sheikh Haikel and Evelyn Kuek



Encompassing the talents from all over the world, we were treated to music throughout the night and my favourite had got to be German DJ Ronski Speed. He got me hopping off my seat and dancing to his beats with the other audience!

 



Other acts also included  Singapore Acapella group Juz-BSingapore rock band Queen Inc. featuring Sylvester SimSingapore singer Chriz Tong Wei EnMalaysian personality Namewee and Filipino rock band Rivermaya.

It was 7 hours of non-stop entertainment and of course the highlight was the much anticipated fireworks display! Everyone cheered, danced and definitely cameras and videos went non-stop snapping. I shall leave you here with the spectacular fireworks... Enjoy!







I loved how to OUE building was "burning" red as it captures the fireworks in its reflection!

Have a blessed 2014 and keep supporting Huney'Z World! :)
