Bellygom pop-up at Changi Airport
Tell any foreigner that Singaporeans like hanging out at the airport even when we’re not flying, and they’d probably look at you like you’re joking. But with the steady stream of events, pop-ups, and things to do at Changi Airport, it’s honestly not that surprising.
This time round, the airport is playing host to the adorable pink bear Bellygom, with a themed pop-up happening from now till 3rd May 2026. Add this to your March holiday activities list – it’s a great excuse to bring the kids or your inner child along.
What or who is Bellygom?
If you’re wondering who this pink cutie is, Bellygom is a popular Korean teddy bear character known for its giant look and even bigger personality. The bear is famous for its surprise appearances and has even been seen alongside K-pop idols and Korean celebrities.
What to expect at the Bellygom pop-up
Besides spotting Bellygom around the airport, keep your eyes peeled for its friends popping up around the space. You’ll also find elements given a local twist, with games, photo spots, and decorations inspired by Singapore culture.

A whopping 7m-tall inflatable Bellygom is waiting for you to snap that perfect pic for the ‘Gram. While you’re at it, see if you can spot Bellygom’s friends and other life-sized local favourites – iced gem biscuits with Ja-Ah Dochi, a cuppa coffee with Daldal-Guri, or Peranakan tingkat with Malamala peeking out.

Play hawker-themed games

Head to the Bellygom Hawker Carnival, where you’ll get to show off your skills at 5 hawker-inspired game stalls. The Hokkien mee stall lets you hop into a huge inflatable wok and catch air-blown ingredients to “cook” your dish, or test your aim at the traditional dessert stall with a ball toss game to recreate iconic local treats.
Winners will get to redeem Bellygom merchandise like plushies and keychains, The JellyHearts cheesecake or ice cream from Swensen’s, or exclusive Changi Rewards (CR) goodies.
