Activities at Changi Airport and Jewel

Capture wintry fun memories at T3

This year’s festive centrepiece display takes visitors back to the ice age. Conquer icy snow terrain and be among towering prehistoric creatures at Dino Blitz, which features two larger-than-life moving Brachiosaurus measuring up to 12 metres in length. 

Also at T3 are three travel-themed Disney Tsum Tsum photospots guaranteed to rekindle the wanderlust. Snap a photo in a giant snow globe, hop onboard super adorable planes and Ready Jet Set Tsummm for your winter holiday! Don’t forget to pick up your bags at the whimsical luggage claim belt and buy some Disney Tsum Tsum souvenirs before you head out. 

Exhilarating experiences await at T4

Fasten your seatbelts as the much-loved Dino Kart roars back into action this year. Thrill seekers with a need for speed can zip around Singapore’s first indoor, air-conditioned go-kart track set up within the Departure Hall, decked out with neon lights and a dinosaur theme, at speeds up to 24km/h. Covering a distance of 400 metres, the track manoveurs past a total of 10 turns and bends in between the check-in rows! Another popular activity, Dino Bounce bouncy castle, will also return for a second run. 

Then, head to the Dino Carnival to feast on lip-smacking street food such as Singapore’s longest handmade fries by Big Big Fries and cute dino-shaped curry puffs by Old Chang Kee, shop for unique crafts and try your hand at a line-up of carnival games. Dino-loving kiddos can unleash their inner paleontologist to uncover dino fossils, or go for a bout of ice fishing, right here in the tropics.
