We sit down with Nurdiana Rahmat—Diana—Artistic Director of Light to Night Singapore 2026, as the iconic festival celebrates its landmark 10th edition with its longest run ever, spanning four weekends across the Civic District.

This year’s theme, “The Power in Us,” shines a spotlight on community, co‑creation, and the collective imagination that has shaped Light to Night into one of Singapore’s most beloved public art festivals. Diana shares how this milestone edition honours a decade of artistic experimentation while inviting audiences to play a more active role in shaping the experience.

Festivalgoers can look forward to crowd‑favourite projection mappings, new in‑gallery experiences, guided tours, and the return of the vibrant Art x Social: Festival Village. A major highlight is SANTAI, a brand‑new series of interactive installations inspired by the Malay word for “to relax,” inviting visitors to gather, unwind, and encounter art across five key sites—from the Padang to Esplanade Park.
