The end of the year is always filled with reasons to celebrate – and it’s times like these (when you actually have a bit of down time that you don’t really know what to do with) that we want to share the best way to celebrate the year-end season. Two words: Sentosa PLAYcation.
Besides the sand, sea, and surf, the fine folk behind the workings of the Island have spared no effort in showing us why Sentosa is Asia’s favourite playground, and it might just become yours too. From November 23rd through January 1st, Sentosa PLAYcation will be bustling with a ginormous array of activities at Merlion Plaza daily from 2.30pm to 9pm.
Pen down your wishes for yourself and your loved ones on colourful stickers, paste it onto the Sentosa word block and see it transform into a vibrant graffiti art display!
Kiddies can express their creativity by handcrafting badges, pom pom fuzzies, a wishing mobil, and decorating their own kid-sized aprons. Don’t worry about not knowing where to start; there will be instructors to help guide you along. The littlies can also try their hands at pizza making as well. The best part? It’s a mere $10 for each activity. Paper Play is a fascinating environmental art display entirely made from paper that also serves as a free interactive photo-point. For $15, have fun with assembling your own unique miniature cardboard figurine souvenirs.
For relaxing, alfresco meals, families are entertained by live music in aromatic food square Grill N’ Chill, where they get to indulge in succulent grilled foods like BBQ chicken wings, beef ribs, satay, and a kid’s combo that hits the spot every Friday and Saturday.
The highlight of Sentosa PLAYcation is the nightly 3D Sentosa Merlion, alive with dynamic 3D video mapping dancing images of colourful displays accompanied by lively music to celebrate the festive season!
That’s not all – from December 20th till Christmas Day, you even get to catch some of your favourite acts (with different traditional ethnic instruments) at Merlion Plaza. Expect blues (by Smokey & Skunk Jive), pop sounds (featuring e-Alternatif & Nathan Hartono) and ukulele strings (starring the romantic Polkadot & Moonbeam and Ukes Avenue), among the many genres in the star-studded lineup, as they perform classic Christmas tunes.
