Meet Santa and send your Christmas wishes to the North Pole


Universal Studios Singapore Christmas 2021 - North Pole Postal Service

No matter if you’ve been naughty or nice, make a beeline for the North Pole Postal Service where Santa and his elves await, ready to entertain everyone with their shenanigans.

But first, don’t forget to take a selfie with some of your favourite movie characters. Shrek & Fiona, Gru’s family from Despicable Me and even Cookie Monster and Oscar from Sesame Street have all received the memo to arrive in their best festive ‘fit. Snap photos with them all at the Universal Rockin’ Railway podium at selected timings throughout the day.

Elmo from Sesame Street

And who can forget the icons like Illumination’s Minions and Elmo from Sesame Street? At New York Street, find new minion Otto and his yellow buds, alongside Sesame Street characters, welcoming everyone to spam their phone galleries with a barrage of AR-animated videos.

Move from movie characters to friendly fishes when you swing by S.E.A. Aquarium, where everything is going swimmingly this season with a handful of family-friendly activities. 

S.E.A. Aquarium Christmas 2021 - Merry Musical Walkway

A day here with the fam will be anything but dull with interactive stations such as the Merry Musical Walkway. Each step you take plays a line from the international sensation ‘Baby Shark’ and the kids are sure to leave humming the song on repeat. 

S.E.A. Aquarium Christmas 2021 - Seasons of Surprises

If the usual aquarium placards don’t catch the little ones’ attention, the colourful flip boards at Seasons of Surprises just might. Bite-sized information on sharks and rays are displayed behind every other tab, making learning fun and easy for the kids. And hey, we’ll bet even the grown ups will learn something new here. 

TIL: The patterns under every manta ray is unique, much like our thumbprints. Keep that in mind when you wonder at the majestic rays at the Open Ocean Habitat.
