At Gardens by the Bay you can spend a whole evening without a ticket: the Supertree Grove, the outdoor gardens and the nightly Garden Rhapsody light show are free. You pay for the two cooled conservatories (Flower Dome and Cloud Forest), Floral Fantasy, the OCBC Skyway and the Supertree Observatory. This guide sets out the Gardens by the Bay ticket price for tourists, what is free, and which ticket or combo makes sense for a two to three hour visit.

Last checked: 16 October 2026. Prices, hours and closure dates come from the official Gardens by the Bay website; prices are non-resident rates in Singapore dollars, including GST.

Gardens by the Bay ticket prices for tourists (non-residents)

These are the non-resident rates published on the official website on 16 October 2026. A child ticket is for ages 3 to 12. Non-resident tables do not list a senior rate.

*Rough guide only, rounded to ₹10, at about ₹74.09 per S$1, worked out from European Central Bank euro reference rates for 15 October 2026 (₹106.5408 and S$1.4379 per euro). Your card or money changer will use its own rate and fees.

  • Tourists cannot buy Flower Dome or Cloud Forest on its own. The official admission table shows single-dome tickets for Singapore residents only. Non-residents buy the two domes together (S$46) or the three-attraction bundle (S$58).
  • Cloud Forest currently includes Jurassic World: The Experience, with life-sized animatronic dinosaurs inside the dome. Gardens by the Bay warns of loud sound effects and flashing lights, worth knowing if you have young children.

What you can see for free

  • Supertree Grove: 12 of the Gardens’ 18 Supertrees, rising up to 50 metres, open daily from 5:00 AM to 2:00 AM with free admission.
  • Garden Rhapsody: the light and sound show in the Supertree Grove, twice nightly at 7:45 PM and 8:45 PM, free. The official page says charges may apply to the Supertree Grove during ticketed events such as Christmas Wonderland. We did not find 2026 Christmas Wonderland dates on the official website when we checked.
  • Outdoor gardens: the themed gardens and lakes listed in the table above, on the same 5:00 AM to 2:00 AM hours.

The show’s theme changes through the year: the official programme lists Opera in the Gardens for October 2026, Garden Waltz for 1 to 28 November and The Christmas Special from 29 November 2026 to 1 January 2027 (dates subject to change).

Which combo to buy for a 2–3 hour visit

PlanAdult costGood for
Free only: Supertree Grove + outdoor gardens + Garden RhapsodyS$0An evening stroll, photos and the light show
Flower Dome + Cloud ForestS$46A 2-hour visit (the official recommended duration for this ticket)
Flower Dome + Cloud Forest + OCBC SkywayS$60 (S$46 + S$14)Domes plus the aerial walkway in the Supertree Grove
Three-attraction bundle with shuttleS$58About 3 hours (official recommended duration), families with Disney fans

For most first-time visitors with two to three hours, the Flower Dome + Cloud Forest ticket (S$46) plus the free Garden Rhapsody is the simplest choice. If you also want Floral Fantasy, the bundle is cheaper than buying it separately: S$58 against S$70 for the two-dome ticket plus a Floral Fantasy ticket, and the bundle adds the shuttle. For a child, the bundle is S$41 against S$48.

A simple evening plan: arrive around 5:00 PM, do Cloud Forest first (last admission 8:00 PM), then Flower Dome (last admission 8:30 PM), then walk to the Supertree Grove for the 7:45 PM or 8:45 PM show. Floral Fantasy is close to Bayfront MRT, so bundle holders can start there.

The OCBC Skyway (S$14) is a 128-metre walkway 22 metres above the ground; allow about 15 minutes. It may close in bad weather, and the official FAQ says affected visitors are directed to the Supertree Observatory instead.

Resident vs non-resident prices

Resident rates apply to Singapore citizens, permanent residents and people living in Singapore, including Employment Pass, Work Permit and Dependent Pass holders. Residents pay S$34 for the two-dome ticket against S$46 for tourists. Proof of residency may be checked, and without it you must upgrade your ticket, so tourists should buy the non-resident ticket.

The card promotions we checked on the official promotions page (10% off Flower Dome with OCBC or SAFRA cards) are for Singapore resident tickets only. For tourists, the official deal is the three-attraction bundle, listed as a promotion until 14 March 2027.

Each paid attraction closes for a full day about once a month. Only one cooled conservatory closes at a time, and on those days a single-conservatory ticket is sold instead. The free outdoor gardens are not on the maintenance list.
