SHINE is a nationwide festival in Singapore "by youth, for youth."
From 18 June to 9 July 2005, a range of activities is lined up during three weeks. Highlights include the official launch on 17 June at Boat Quay, Youth Service Weekend on 24-26 June and Urban Infest, an outdoor celebration and street party on 2 July at Orchard Road.
Jointly supported by the Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports and the National Youth Council, youth aged 15-35 can sign up as participants, SHINE volunteers or pitch their ideas with the SHINE-NYAA grant.
A motto used throughout the official website is, "it will truly be a place where youth can SHINE!"
