Weekend slots for the showcase are usually fully booked. Admission is free, but tickets are required for some parts of the exhibition. More than 122,000 tickets have been issued to date.

When polled about their experience, the majority of visitors gave it a rating of four out of five.

Giving an update on the showcase, Minister for Digital Development and Information Josephine Teo said in her social media post on Nov 24: “These visitors, both young and old, have had the chance to get a personalised and unique glimpse of Singapore’s tomorrow through a multi-sensory journey.

“The showcase is a heartfelt celebration of our shared journey as a nation, enabling visitors to connect to new knowledge, interests, and with one another.”
