FESTIVAL MAP
GETTING HERE
The Singapore Sea Regatta is committed to contributing to a greener environment and reducing its environmental footprint. While conveniently accessible by various modes of transport, we encourage you (spectators and participants) alike to embrace sustainable travel options, especially during the event when traffic congestion is anticipated. Opting for public transport, such as the MRT and Buses, not only ensures a smoother journey but also significantly reduces carbon emissions, helping us collectively create a more sustainable future for Singapore.
Via the MRT:
Stadium MRT Station (CC6) is the nearest station which exits directly into the Singapore Sports Hub.
Bus Services 11:
Alight along Stadium Crescent (Bus Stop No. 80199), which is directly outside Singapore Indoor Stadium.
For more information, please refer to the MRT network map, or SBS Transit Bus Guide.
