About DBS Live more by the Bay

 

DBS Live more by the Bay seeks to be a force for good that drives positive change from the very heart of Singapore. We provide priority access to those who might not usually be exposed to Marina Bay and all she has to offer, to meaningful experiences that foster inclusion and a stronger sense of community amongst all. Together with like-minded partners Singapore Sailing Federation, The Esplanade and National Gallery, we bring people from all walks of life together to explore, connect, and engage around the iconic waterfront.

 

Please note that participants must be above 7 and below 70 years of age. Young children must have attained 7 years of age at the point of registration (i.e. after their 7th birthday) and are required to provide proof of age through a photo ID before they board the sailboats.

 

DBS Bank
DBS was founded in 1968 as the Development Bank of Singapore, with a unique purpose to help develop a young nation. Since then, we've grown alongside Singapore to become Best Bank in the World. We are purpose-driven and committed to creating a positive impact on the community. For instance, since 2012, we have been enlivening the Marina Bay area with community programmes like Live more by the Bay and POSB PAssion Run for Kids, and by making experiences like sailing accessible to all – so that we can truly live more.
