Punggol North Unity in Light is on Friday 28 November 2026, 6.00pm to 9.30pm, at Northshore Plaza 1. Guest of honour is Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong. The official onePA listing is event E27128608. This is a Punggol North CC night market and stage, not a programme inside Punggol Coast Mall. The interim CC counter at the mall, #01-124, is only the weekday office. Do not turn up there at 6.00pm on the 28th expecting a stage.
onePA lists live cultural dance, booths, fringe, and a festive buffet. Price is behind login. Registration closes 28 November 2026, which is the event date, so treat it as register-before-you-go rather than walk-up. Ethnic precinct nights at Northshore fill the plaza decks. Bring cash for booths even if the buffet is pre-paid on the onePA form.
Northshore Plaza 1 sits on Northshore Drive, yellow and grey blocks with A&W on the facade and the LRT on the inland side. From Punggol Coast Mall you walk the coastal path toward Punggol Point, or you ride the LRT toward Punggol Point station. It is a different mall. People mix the two because Punggol North CC's interim desk is inside Punggol Coast Mall. The celebration is not at that desk.
What the night is for
The title names Deepavali and Unity. Deepavali public holiday is Monday 9 November 2026. This gathering is 19 days later, inside the MOE year-end holiday that starts 21 November. It is a constituency cultural night with a cabinet guest, not a temple programme and not a mall light-up. onePA's copy is short: dance, booths, fringe, buffet. There is no published run sheet with set times for each dance. Arrive by 6.00pm if you want the opening, not 8.30pm for leftovers.
November 28 is a Friday. The plaza decks get wind off the water. A light jacket helps after 8.00pm. Strollers work on the promenade. The indoor mall of Northshore Plaza 1 stays on its own shop hours; the event uses the open decks. If rain is heavy, watch Punggol North CC's channels. onePA will not always push a same-day SMS.
Getting there from Punggol Coast Mall
From NE18, follow Northshore Drive on foot. It is a straight coastal walk, longer than it looks on the mall directory. The LRT is faster with a pram if you catch a Punggol Point-bound train. Driving: Northshore Plaza has its own car park. Do not leave the car at Punggol Coast Mall and assume a five-minute stroll. Budget 20 minutes on foot, more with kids.

If the CC posts a door sale that morning, it will be on their Facebook, not on the mall's empty promotions calendar.
