Throughout its long and illustrious history, the Singapore Botanic Gardens (SBG) has played an integral role in Singapore's cultural, social and economic development. While the Gardens remains true to its original purpose as an institution for botanical and horticultural research and education, it has also evolved into a much‐loved civic space and one of Singapore’s top attractions. Recent international accolades such as Time Magazine’s choice of the Gardens as “Asia’s Best Urban Jungle” and a three Michelin Star rating by the Michelin Green Guide bear testimony to the Gardens’ enduring charm.In line with the Gardens’ mission of connecting plants and people, we have developed an exciting year‐long programme that will provide opportunities for family and community bonding. The programme line‐up brings together a diverse range of fun‐filled events and activities aimed at providing Singaporeans with opportunities to reminisce, re‐connect as well as celebrate.
