Sentosa is pulling out all the stops to welcome the Year of the Snake with a refreshed edition of its “Sentosa Presents: A Big, Big World” celebration. The island’s three iconic zones—Resorts World Sentosa, Sentosa Sensoryscape, and Palawan Beach have been transformed from their Christmas season installations into a vibrant Spring wonderland. From January 19 to February 16, visitors will be treated to an array of interactive day-to-night experiences, ushering in the Lunar New Year with excitement and joy.
As guests arrive through the Sentosa Gateway, they’ll be greeted by an impressive installation of a peach-orange Wood Snake with golden yellow motifs, designed by renowned local artist JOOheng Tan, diving gracefully among beautiful blossoms. This breathtaking centrepiece sets the tone for the immersive festivities awaiting visitors across the island.
