Velocity Has Games Like Life-Sized Billiard Soccer & Christmas Feasting Options This Festive Period

Velocity@Novena Square Christmas 2022


The end of the year is upon us and you might be in desperate need of a major event to lift your spirits and do some serious holiday shopping. That’s where Velocity comes in.

The mall heard your pleas, listened, and decided to add a handful of games, festive plate discounts, and freebies in its Christmas festivities lineup. From now till 25th December 2022, here’s everything that’s going down at Velocity.  


Score discounts on Christmas platters


Your traditional roasted turkey and potato might be at risk of getting cancelled since you found out other unique options like a Japanese Christmas platter exists.

To those sushi-obsessed souls, go ahead and get yourself an Ichiban Boshi’s Christmas Takeaway Bundle (from $88). Each set consists of different dishes, but a few standouts include a Jingle Sashimi Platter, Christmas 6-Spiced Roasted Chicken, and Yuzu Duck with Japanese Chestnut Stuffing.

Another Japanese option that deserves your attention is Monster Curry’s demi-glace Japanese curry bread bowl Christmas Platter ($36.90). It serves 4 people and comes with black pepper roast beef, chicken katsu, fried shrimp, teriyaki chicken karaage, and mozzarella cheese sticks.

If you want to pile your plate with sizzling grilled meat during the holiday season, there’s a place for that too. Head towards Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ Restaurant and settle in for either a Japanese Wagyu Buffet ($89.80++) or an Australian Wagyu Buffet Course ($69.80++). Your belly might be straining against your top at the end of the meal and that’s okay.

Test your skills at a life-size billiard soccer game


You probably haven’t seen a life-size billiard game before, and odds are you might never want to play a regular one again after trying this.

From now till 25th December, a giant snookball setup that’s kinda like pool meets soccer is taking to the Velocity Wing Atrium, Level 1. Be the human cue stick, take an aim, and kick the balls into the holes using your feet.

Other adrenaline-pumping challenges include the Sub Soccer AKA human table football and Grab A Ball where you’re required to catch dropping balls. Both games will test your skills and speed, and are highly addictive.

To play the games, simply spend $50 at the mall if you’re a U-POPP member to redeem 2 e-Pass. Win all 3 games and you’ll score yourself a prize.


Snag freebies with purchase


Okay, so you’ve got a tree, a few platters, and several gifts for your friends and fam. The main pieces of your Christmas puzzle are out of the way. Now, give yourself a pat on the back and bring the receipts to the customer service counter for some freebies.
