No one does celebrations quite like Science Centre Singapore, where fun and learning come together! Celebrate the Year of the Rooster with these exciting festivities!

1. Catch dragon and lion dances at Snow City

Never celebrated Lunar New Year in the snow before? Now’s your chance! Snow City will be marking the occasion with appearances from the God of Fortune himself (28-29 January and 4-5 February at 3pm), as well as a Dragon and Lion Dance (29 January at 3pm).

For those of you born in the Year of the Rooster, Snow City has a special treat just for you! Guests born in 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, or 2005 get 50% off on 2-hour snow play sessions from 28 January to 10 February 2017.

Your family can also learn about life in the Arctic Circle through the storytelling session “The Life of the Inuit”. How do these people survive the cold temperatures? Visit the traditional Inuit home at the mezzanine to find out!

Singapore’s first permanent indoor snow centre also features hourly snow fall experiences and even has blizzards twice a day!
