Top Gun: Maverick - A Light, Water & Pyrotechnic Extravaganza
Marina Bay Sands, Singapore
Water Jets, Lasers, Projectors and Lighting Programming
A 10-minute show that saw the integrated resort adapt Spectra, its nightly multimedia light and water show, for a Top Gun-themed showcase set to light up the skies, complete with a dazzling display of choreographed pyrotechnics. The event, which was free and open to the public, was the first public fan event staged by Marina Bay Sands since the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020.
Set against the stirring Top Gun: Maverick soundtrack which includes Lady Gaga’s new single “Hold My Hand”, a soaring anthem specially written for the film by the singer-songwriter herself, spectators was mesmerized by a visual spectacle featuring state-of-the-art projections, lasers, lights, and dynamic water effects alongside electrifying scenes from the upcoming sequel. The special rendition of Spectra was accompanied by a captivating orchestration of pyrotechnics, while Top Gun projection mappings illuminate Marina Bay Sands – from the three iconic cascading hotel towers and underbelly of Sands SkyPark, to the façade of ArtScience Museum.
