Changi Festive Village 2021


POV: You hear Michael Bublé and Mariah Carey belting out festive tunes through the speakers and spot and garlands and fairy lights at every corner. There’s no mistaking it, Christmas is here, and this year’s festivities are surely greater than the last.

Changi Festive Village has kicked things off at Jewel Changi, Changi Airport Park Connector as well as Terminals 3 and 4 with more festive activities than you can finish in a day. From now till 3rd January 2022, there’s plenty of reasons to swing by the airport – even if you’re not planning a VTL trip.


Light show & magical “snowfall” at Jewel

There’s a lot more to explore on your next visit to Jewel. And by this, we mean that your dreams of a White Christmas still can come true thanks to some artificial snowfall at the Shiseido Forest Valley that happens twice every hour, from 6.15PM -10.35PM, daily.

Sit down on the cushions to activate some the “onsen steam” from the ground, or scan the QR code to snap a picture with AR snow monkeys.

After, take a “trip around the world” with interactive decor featuring a Japanese onsen, the Eiffel Tower, Great Wall of China and South African safari. Don’t leave before watching the Christmas-themed light shows projected on the iconic Rain Vortex every hour from 7.30PM – 10.30PM daily.

Location: Jewel Changi, Forest Valley
Price: Free, spend $25 on a single receipt to redeem one same-day entry
