Singapore’s Only Vesak Festival to Feature Rare Giant Thangka this May

Racers, start your engines! Nintendo is once again heading to Jewel Changi Airport for another pop-up from now up till July 24, 2025.

Stock up on merchandise from fan-favorites like Super Mario, Animal Crossing, The Legend of Zelda, Splatoon, Pikmin, and more! The pop-up is said to feature over 500 Nintendo merchandise items, which include 150 new and exclusive items that weren’t available in their previous pop-up.

To add to the fun and excitement of the Nintendo pop-up, the Jewel Changi airport will be decorated with Mario Kart-themed installations and photo spots — a first in Southeast Asia. Guests and visitors can even get to see the Jewel Changi rain vortex area transformed into the popular Rainbow Road racetrack! 

Join Mario and the kart-racing gang in interactive installations spread throughout the Jewel Changi Circuit Challenge displays from Levels 1 to 4, starting at the centerpiece at Forest Valley. One of these installations includes a 1.3-meter-tall banana peel.

The pop-up event will also include a stamp rally, where visitors can collect all six stamps to score an exclusive Mario Kart sticker pack! It’s a blind-box concept, so you won’t know what you’ll get.

There’s also a sure-win Gachapon machine near the Level 1 Concierge, where players have the chance to win exciting prizes like shop vouchers, attraction tickets, discounts, and gift cards. You’ll only need to spend a minimum of S$80 in a single receipt purchase at participating Jewel Changi stores for a Gachapon token, or buy two tokens through the Changi App. 

Here’s a pro-tip from Jewel Changi: pay by Mastercard for an extra token!

Don’t forget to make a pitstop at the Nintendo Pop-up and Mario Kart installations at the Jewel Changi Airport!

In a fusion of olfactory art and neuroscience, Coty has launched the newest adidas “Vibes” fragrance collection, which is not just a fragrance, but an attitude, a mood, a vibe. 

Made in collaboration with world-class perfumers, “Vibes” addresses the different occasions and needs of everyday life, from athletes during downtime to fashion-forward active lifestyle consumers, while acknowledging the influence of scents on human emotions. 

Inspired by the sport and cultural heritage of adidas, this new collection of six exciting Eau de Parfums (EDP) has been meticulously crafted to elevate mood and emotional well-being, while capturing and matching the dynamic energy of everyday life. Each bottle is a canvas of color and mood — a tribute to the dynamic spirit of the adidas brand and designed for everyone. 

Recognizing the fast pace of modern life, the pressures, and the struggle to stay in the moment, “Vibes” rises to the occasion, pushing the boundaries of fragrance. Users are treated to a variety of scents designed to make them feel good while also matching their current mood. 

Whether they want to Power Up, Relax, or Escape, there is always a Vibe occasion to match, immersing customers in an enthralling and long-lasting olfactory journey. 

“Vibes” Eau de Parfums have been found to elicit positive emotions. Consumer testing revealed that at least 81% agree it makes them feel good, and 85% agree that it improves their mood. 

A Scent for Every Mood

The adidas “Vibes” Eau de Parfum collection includes six scents. Here are the “vibes” you should pair these perfumes with: 

Looking to escape? You can choose between the fragrances "Full Recharge" and "Happy Feels," designed to create adventures in your everyday life and build your self-esteem and confidence to make the most of every moment. "Full Recharge" embodies the uplifting feeling of escapism through its refreshing and earthy ingredients of cedar leaf and clary sage. "Happy Feels," on the other hand, gives feelings of bliss with its zesty notes of grapefruit extract and jasmine notes. 

For relaxing moments, "Chill Zone" and "Get Comfy" are your best bets, inspiring you to be comfortable in your own skin, not letting any external pressures in, and encouraging you to take breaks from the everyday hustle. "Chill Zone" gives a feeling of peace through its notes of lavender and vanilla that evoke a feeling of relaxation and warmth. "Get Cozy" is comforting, with its notes of vanilla and mandarin. 

To power up and energize your mood, "Energy Drive" and "Spark Up" keep you grounded and down-to-earth. Always on the move and never standing still, you’re sure to be given an unstoppable burst of energy. "Energy Drive" has cardamom and spicy pink pepper twists, while "Spark Up" offers an explosive duo of sweet orange & black pepper to invigorate and enchant, while still encouraging you to perform at your best at everything you do. 

The range is designed for all, providing scents that allow for individual expression.
