Celebrate Earth Hour on Orchard!

Join over a hundred Orchard Road malls, retailers and hotels in an unprecedented move to fight climate change by going beyond the hour during Earth Hour this year!

More than 30 buildings and over 70 retailers on Orchard Road will switch off their façade lights, media walls as well as other non-essential store lights, for more than an hour from 8.30pm onwards on Saturday 26 March 2011 – in line with the “60 +” going beyond the hour message of Earth Hour 2011.

The inaugural event, “Celebrate Earth Hour @ Orchard 2011” invites members of the public to join in the pledge at “Light of Hour” by lighting tealights at any of the 20 lighting stations along Orchard Road's pedestrian walkway from ION Orchard to 313@somerset.

In addition to witnessing A Great Street being transformed into a sea of tealights from 8 – 10pm, visitors can also look forward to a host of in-mall promotions and outdoor street performances along the entire shopping belt.  A Countdown Ceremony will be staged from 8.15pm in front of Wisma Atria.  Visitors will be able to witness the climactic moment as Orchard Road changes out of its glitzy outfit for a good cause at 8.30pm.
