Flower Dome at Gardens By The Bay will open to the public on July 11, 2020.

Previously, the Flower Dome opened to Friends of the Gardens members on July 1. This came after almost three months of closure following the implementation of the Covid-19 circuit breaker.

From July 11, visitors can look forward to a European-themed landscape in the main flower field.

Visitors can also expect seasonal flowers from temperate countries such as sunflowers, foxgloves, larkspurs, kangaroo paw, coleus and pelargoniums.

There will also be mini garden displays in the Pocket Gardens Surprise series which will be introduced every fortnight throughout Flower Dome.

The first Pocket Gardens Surprise is the Edible Garden, which features vegetables and herbs grown for use in the kitchen.

Tickets to be purchased online in advance

Members of the public can purchase timed entry tickets from July 7, 2020.

Tickets must be purchased online and in advance from Gardens by the Bay's website as physical ticketing counters will be closed.

All Flower Dome visitors must pre-book an entry time slot and visit during the designated time slot to ensure safe distancing and to regulate crowds.

There will be around 3,500 time slots available daily as the capacity in the Flower Dome has been capped at 25 per cent.

Ticket prices are S$12 for adult Singapore residents, and S$8 for children and seniors who are Singapore residents.

You can purchase your tickets here.

Digital ambassadors will also be stationed to assist visitors in booking tickets online if they are not aware of the new measure.
