The National Stadium in Kallang. Opened in July 1973, the place has been used for many sporting, entertainment and national events, such as the Southeast Asian Games and the finals of the 2004 Tiger Cup. It has been the venue for the NDP 18 times.
The National Stadium was officially closed on 30 June 2007 and will be demolished to make way for the Singapore Sports Hub which is expected to open in 2011.
On 30 June 2007, a closing ceremony titled Field of Dreams – A Tribute to the National Stadium was held at the National Stadium. 55,000 people attended the event, together with President S R Nathan, members of the Cabinet and Singapore athletes, past and present. Before the ceremony, a football match featuring ex-internationals from Singapore and Malaysia was played.
The match was followed by the highlight of the evening, an international friendly between ASEAN champions Singapore and the Australian team, the Socceroos. The Australians won 3-0 with goals scored by English Premier League players Mark Viduka and Harry Kewell.
