Mid-Autumn Festival is a time to enjoy mooncakes and go for night strolls under the full moon – but we can do all that and more at Jurong Point with their Sanrio-themed festivities.
From 16th August – 15th September 2019, you’ll be meeting Sanrio characters like Hello Kitty, Cinamoroll, Pompompurin, Gudetama and Kerokerokeroppi. From life-sized inflatables to an IG-worthy lantern tunnel, here are several festive highlights to enjoy at Jurong Point.
Don’t miss out on exploring the 6-metre long Sanrio Characters Lantern Tunnel – it’s lined with lanterns in the form of Keroppi, Gudetama, Pompompurin and other Sanrio friends. This illuminated tunnel will excite all kids and tug at the nostalgic heartstrings of adults.
After strolling through the Lantern Tunnel, spot Pompompurin and Cinnamoroll scattered around Jurong Point in the form of life-sized inflatables. It’s not every day you get to see a life-sized Pompompurin – take the chance to snap a picture to post on IG!
