Community Floats 2025
About Chingay Community Floats
The community floats debuted at Chingay Parade 2022, where residents with guidance from local artists, get to showcase their co-creations and creativity on a national platform. The co-creation workshops held several weeks to months enabled residents the opportunity to interact with one another, contribute their creativity and have been a great way for neighbours and friends to foster a sense of identity, ownership and being part of the community. This initiative exemplifies the community’s active participation in the Chingay Parade, an annual celebration of multiculturalism and diversity.
Chingay 2025 will feature a record-breaking 23 floats, including 14 community floats, and for the first time, a District-level float spanning 12 metres.
