With the close of Singapore Biennale 2016, hipsters photography enthusiasts everywhere in Singapore have been looking for the next great IG hotspot to open up. Come 3 March, their wishes will be answered. If i Light Marina Bay rings a bell, you might have seen one of these angels on your social media feed last year:

Bad news: there won’t be any glowing angels this year
Good news: there are loads of other insta-worthy highlights for you to discover

i Light Marina Bay will be open from 3-26 March 2017, and here’s a quick teaser to get you excited.

Beneath all the glitter and dazzle, i Light Marina Bay is Asia’s leading sustainable light art festival, meaning there’s a green message behind each installation for you to uncover. 2017’s iteration of i Light Marina Bay is different from its previous 4 installations as there are now over 20 light installations and 3 main themed hubs: Art-Zoo, GastroBeats, and The Fantastical World of eco.me.

Art-Zoo is a paid exhibit with giant inflatable animals that will light up at night, including an inflatable giraffe in the centre with a maze to keep the younger ones occupied while GastroBeats is the part of the carnival with food, music, and drinks, perfect for stretching your legs after the ~2 hours you’ve spent exploring the festival.

These are the highlights of i Light Marina Bay you won’t want to miss:
