Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Watch as illumi, the world’s largest illumination event featuring more than 20 million LED lights, kicked off at Singapore's Marina Bay on Friday, 13 September.

The light show is making its international debut after it began in Canada.

It has been created by the team behind Cavalia’s 2014 Bayfront display and presented by Base Entertainment Asia.

In Singapore, there will be nine themed light worlds - including puppies and kitties, a winter wonderland, and "Enchanted Maples" which invites guests to explore glowing maple leaves and treats from Sugar Shack.

Normand Latourelle, Cavalia and illumi creator, said: "illumi is here to entertain you, dazzle you, and make you dream with your eyes wide open. No matter your age, illumi is a phenomenal journey into the imagination for your greatest pleasure."
