Hands up if “Can you tell me how to get // How to get to Sesame Street.” was the anthem of your childhood. Good news: UOL Malls is bringing the gang back to town for A Sesame Street Christmas with UOL Malls – happening this EOY at United Square and Velocity@Novena Square.
First up is the Sesame Street Christmas Show and Meet & Greet at United Square, happening from 28th November to 7th December 2025. The shows will run at 1pm and 7pm on weekdays, with an extra 4pm show on weekends – except for 2nd December, when there will be no shows.

ICYMI, Sesame Street has returned with a reimagined season of 4 episodes, now streaming on Netflix – though the classic seasons that we grew up with are also available on the platform, in case you wanted a trip down memory lane.
Even before the characters come on stage, you can expect fun and entertainment, plus singalongs, to get the kiddos and you all hyped up for the main act.
There’s even a short games segment where a lucky few little ones will be invited on stage to test their aiming skills.
Then enters the Muppet cast, who will take the stage to lead the crowd in a lively Christmas singing and dancing sesh.
To get your hands on one of these Meet & Greet passes, simply spend $30 at United Square to redeem a session with Elmo, Cookie Monster, Bert and Ernie.
The fun doesn’t end there – there’s also Magical Bubble Play that starts 30 minutes before each show time. In other words, at 12.30pm and 6.30pm on weekdays, plus a 3.30pm sesh on weekends.
While most of the fun is happening at United Square, there are a couple of Sesame Street characters that you can meet at Velocity@Novena Square too. Plus, they are, as some might feel, the more unique Muppets from the telly series, so it’s great to get some facetime with them.
So, if your kiddo is a fan of Abby and Count , with his signature salutation, “Greetings! I am the Count. They call me the Count because I love to count… things!” this is your chance to give ‘em a hug and take a commemorative photo with them.
Do note that the Meet & Greet at Velocity@Novena Square only takes place at 2pm on 6th and 7th December 2025.
The themed decor and Christmas trees aren’t all that’s up at these UOL Malls – there’s an Uncle Ringo Festival Carnival at United Square. Head to street level, outside the famous Wee Nam Kee Chicken Rice restaurant, to find a carousel and flying spaceship ride.
If you missed the Meet & Greets, fret not, because also located here are life-sized standees of the whole Sesame Street crew, decked out in festive Santa hats.
Otherwise, let them hop on the mini train that will take the kiddos around the open space at Basement One of United Square.
You’ll be rewarded for all your shopping, too. At United Square, a $100 shopping receipt will get you a Sesame Street notebook.
Otherwise, if you’re doing your Christmas shopping at Velocity@Novena Square, you’ll get a $20 voucher or the same notebook with the $100 spend.
When you hit a minimum spend of $200, you can redeem a Sesame Street Tote-brella – a foldable umbrella in a case that unfolds to reveal a tote bag.
If you ask us, this is the perfect way to sneak a reusable bag into your daily bag without adding an extra item.
And finally, the top-tier reward of a Sesame Street Travel Bag is yours if you rack up shopping bills of at least $350.
This comes just in time for all the EOY travels, since it folds up into a compact square, and comes with a strap for you to slide it onto the handles of your trolley luggages.
If this isn’t your sign to be “On [your] way to where the air is sweet,” we’re taking suggestions. It’s too bad Big Bird isn’t part of the Meet & Greet lineup, but one can hope that he’ll be at future Sesame Street pop-ups – and that Elmo and friends are back on their way into the hearts of new generations of fans.
