Gardens by the Bay hosts BTS light show from 12 December

Gardens by the Bay will host the BTS THE CITY Supertrees Light & Music Experience in Singapore from 12 to 22 December 2026. The 15-minute outdoor show will synchronise the Supertrees with BTS music, including the release ARIRANG, giving the Singapore landmark a new role in the group’s month-long city programme.

BTS light and music show runs from 12 December

The experience is scheduled nightly at 9.35pm. Gardens by the Bay says the show will be visible from several locations in World of Plants, including Secret Life of Trees, World of Palms, and Fruits and Flowers.

Admission to the outdoor viewing areas is free, according to the operator. Visitors who want to watch from Supertree Grove will need admission to Christmas Wonderland, which occupies Supertree Grove and The Meadow from 27 November 2026 to 3 January 2027. The show itself is therefore accessible without entering the festive fairground, while the closer viewing option is linked to that separate event. The operator’s programme page lists the date, venue and viewing arrangements.

Supertrees connect the show to Bay South history

The BTS programme uses one of the garden’s most recognisable structures as its stage. The Supertree Grove contains 12 of the 18 Supertrees, and the structures rise to 50 metres above the ground. Their established light and music programming makes the December experience a temporary change in soundtrack rather than a change to the garden’s physical layout.

Bay South is the largest of three public waterfront gardens at the site. It opened to the public on 29 June 2012, while the wider complex in Marina Bay covers 101 hectares and includes cooled conservatories, themed gardens, lakes and aerial bridges. These confirmed anchors place the BTS show within a garden destination that has operated for more than a decade. The background on the three gardens records the site’s Marina Bay setting, opening date and scale.

Free viewing areas sit around World of Plants

The viewing plan matters because the event is spread across the garden rather than confined to one ticketed enclosure. Secret Life of Trees, World of Palms, and Fruits and Flowers at World of Plants offer views of the illuminated Supertrees, while Supertree Grove provides the closer option connected with Christmas Wonderland.

The BTS show is part of BTS THE CITY ARIRANG SINGAPORE, an island-wide programme running through December 2026. At Gardens by the Bay, the programme’s fixed dates are 12 to 22 December, placing the light and music experience inside the wider festive period without changing the garden’s permanent attractions.
