Changi Airport is set to transform into a realm of festive charm from 4 November 2023 till 31 March 2024. Immerse yourself in the joy of the season and beyond with a candy-themed wonderland, whimsical carnival games and rides, as well as a snow house that will transport you to a world of wintry fun. As you explore this magical candyland, look out for Changi’s ever lovable dinosaur mascots, dazzling fairy stilt walkers or even Santa himself!
At the heart of the festivities lies the sweetest spectacle: Candy Wonderland at Terminal 3’s (T3) departure hall. A cuddly 5-metre-tall bear, a 7-metre-tall rotating cupcake Ferris wheel, a pool of sprinkles, and candy cane lane beckon Changi’s visitors into a world of sweet delight. As dusk falls each day, a spellbinding light and snow show will add a touch of magic to the evening. On selected Friday and Saturday evenings, look out for buskers, jugglers, and a live marching band performing holiday tunes.
Mr Jayson Goh, Executive Vice President of Airport Management at Changi Airport Group, said, “We invite visitors and travellers to immerse in the joy of the holiday season and join us for an enchanting experience at the Changi Festive Village. Our candy-themed activities add a sweet twist to the carnival, and promises to be a delightful haven for families and friends to create cherished moments together at Changi Airport.”
Hit the sweet spot with Candy Carnival’s games, activities, and treats
The Candy Carnival located at T3’s arrival hall bursts with a plethora of exciting carnival games, rides, and adorable Changi-exclusive confectionery-themed prizes to be won. Test your aim at the virtual reality shooting game, bring home humongous plushies at the giant claw machine or bounce to your heart’s content at Candy Bounce’s inflatable castle of desserts. Little ones can get a sugar rush on the Candy Kart go-kart course.
After the games, savour yummy carnival classics like nachos, corndogs, takoyaki (octopus balls) and even viral favourites like the Korean cheese coin pancake with its stringy, gooey centre! More fun and games await at Basement 2 where young ones can climb aboard the candy-coated trackless train or hop on a whimsical merry-go-round.
Slide right into a frosty adventure at the Candy Snow House
Just beyond the Candy Carnival lies the enchanting Candy Snow House, a fantastical world of snow and ice. Discover intricately carved ice sculptures which glow from within, such as a majestic reindeer-drawn sleigh and a cast of friendly candy pals come to life. Slide right into the festive mood on the three-lane 5-metre-long snow slide or the 3-metre-long ice luge. Challenge your friends to a game of basketball, snow bowling, or mini golf on a course made entirely of ice! Then, live your winter holiday dreams by riding on a hand-pulled sleigh or skate around on a snow scooter.
