Set sail at Singapore Odyssea and travel through 700 years of our history at the National Museum of Singapore.
This multimedia showcase is the museum’s ode to Singapore for SG60, blending light, art, and storytelling for an interactive and engaging experience.
From the moment you step into the exhibition, you’re transported into an imaginative re-creation of Singapore’s past. The space is bathed in vivid projections and ambient soundscapes inspired by the sights, sounds, and textures of bygone eras.
A highlight of the experience is the use of an RFID-enabled wristband, given to each visitor at the start. This digital “compass” guides you along the exhibition path.
Beyond static displays, Singapore Odyssea thrives on movement and transformation.
Stand still, and you’ll see the scenery around you subtly shift, as though time itself is passing. Move forward, and history advances with you, revealing the next chapter in the story, encountering everything from the legendary creatures and beings from our local myths to our ever-changing seascape.
The experience is as much about emotional connection as it is about education. While you marvel at the sea’s role in shaping our country’s past, the showcase draws you in with its attention to detail and layered narratives.
Younger visitors will enjoy the gamified aspects of the wristband, while history buffs will appreciate the nuanced presentation of familiar events.
By the end of your journey, Singapore Odyssea leaves you with a deeper appreciation of how far this small but mighty nation has come. It’s a fitting tribute for SG60 — a reminder that our shared story is still being written and that the odyssey of Singapore is far from over.
Admission is free for Singaporeans, Permanent Residents, and children aged 6 years and below.
Although, do note that the exhibition will be closed on 15 August 2025. Admission is also by timed entry, so you’ll still need to get tickets here even if the admission is free for you! You’ve been warned.
