Mid-Autumn Festival 2026 Celebrations @ Gardens By The Bay 滨海花园庆中秋

This year’s Mid-Autumn Festival at Gardens by the Bay takes on a fresh, playful twist, with eight dazzling lantern sets reimagining the Gardens as a fantasy world. Guiding visitors on this enchanting journey is Fenbao, an original character created by acclaimed Singapore advertising creative and Golden Horse Award nominee Lim Sau Hoong.

Mid Autumn Festival Gardens by the Bay 2026

Joining Fenbao are her faithful canine companion Ah Ken, friends Chiu Chiu and Pineapple Boy, and Bee Nini—a computer bee from the future who has travelled across time. Together, they embark on a magical adventure through landscapes of light, inviting visitors of all ages to discover a world filled with wonder, friendship and imagination. These endearing characters will spark childhood wonder across generations, breathe fresh life into familiar Mid-Autumn traditions, and create warm, joyful moments for families to celebrate the festival together.
