The illumination of the festive centrepiece, lion, and dragon decorations symbolised unity, renewal, and shared hopes for the Year of the Fire Horse, drawing enthusiastic applause from the crowd as the community welcomed the new year together.

Following the light-up, Emcee Singapore led the audience into the celebratory segments of the night, including the traditional lion dance Cai Qing and the vibrant dragon dance performance.
