SINGAPORE – Mapletree Investments (“Mapletree” or “the Group”) presented An Evening with Mapletree to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival 2023.

All attendees were treated to an exciting display of thematic lantern installations set up around various art pieces at its flagship business park Mapletree Business City, namely The Conch, Wave, Elliptical Pavillion, Merryweather Pump Escape Fire Engine and Swirling Surrounds. They also enjoyed a traditional Japanese taiko performance and a fusion oriental dance performance by local performers.
