Summer is upon us, and blockbusters are coming in hotter than microwaved chicken nuggets. One of which is TRANSFORMERS: Rise of the Beasts. And if you’ve been with this series for the last 6 movies, you’ll know this 7th sequel is gonna be equally epic.
But we’re here to tell you something that you probably didn’t know. From now till 25th June 2023, there’ll be a whole lot of Transformers-themed events set to kick off at Waterway Point. From an overnight camping experience to photo ops with a giant Optimus Prime statue, here’s everything you can look forward to during the June holidays.
You won’t have to make a trip to Cybertron to meet Optimus Prime anytime soon. Just head to Waterway Point to snap unlimited pics with the friendly red and blue giant.
Between now and 7th June, a massive 2m-tall Optimus Prime statue stands merrily at Village Square on level 1. On the off chance that you miss the window, swing by again from 15th-25th June to catch the Autobot leader at The Cove at Basement 2 (West Wing).
There’ll be no explosions or battleships, just a series of truck transformers begging to be photographed.
A trip to Waterway Point is about to send you home with mad DIY skills and major robot-themed goodies.
Between 1st-3rd June, novice tinkerers and pro DIY-ers alike will get to build a bot from recycled materials, as well as decorate cupcakes with icing, sprinkles, and robot toppings. The latter will be taking place from 4th-7th June. Each workshop will run for an hour between 12.30pm-1.30pm, 2.30pm-3.30pm, and 4.30-5.30pm.
From 9th-25th June, dance and face painting sessions are also set to draw a crowd. So if breaking out into choreographed routines while strutting a Bumblebee-inspired makeup look is your thing, don’t miss it.
All you gotta do is spend a minimum of $30 at the stores to secure free passes* for the workshops. For every $30 spent on a single receipt, you’ll also be entered into a lucky draw with up to $20,000 worth of prizes to be given out. Goodies to look forward to include a trip to Bali for 4 people and an OSIM uThrone V Gaming massage chair from the Transformers Beast series.
FYI, with a minimum purchase of $120 at Sports & Leisure, Fashion & Accessories, or Books & Stationery stores, you’ll be able to nab a $10 voucher** to be used at places like A-One Signature, Cotton On Kids, and Starbucks.
There’ll also be a Transformers weekend bag up for grabs when you spend a minimum of $250 across 3 same-day receipts. If you belong to the top 8 highest spenders during the period of 26th May-2nd June, you’ll get a free 2D1N Urban Camping Experience complete with a treasure hunt, outdoor movie screening, campfire, and pebble painting.
*Workshop passes are limited to the first 20 redemptions per session. Passes can be redeemed at Customer Service on Level 1.
**Limited to the first 1,500 redemptions
With the release of epic films comes epic parties, and the Transformers parties at Waterway Point are not to be missed.
On top of the deals and steals above, you can also get eDeals using 60 Points under the FRx Rewards Catalogue. Simply use the FRx app when you make purchases at the mall. But hurry, you’ll only have until 25th June to do so. With that said, be there or be square.

Here are all the best things to do this weekend in Singapore.
Just an hour away from KL!
Taichung is only an hour by High Speed Rail from Taipei or Taoyuan station.
No more stressing over what to get your loved ones for Christmas.
Gone are the days when family photoshoots used to be boring and extra formal.
Meet new-to-Singapore species as well.
