Sentosa Pokemon Carnival Has Pikachu Floats, Pikachu Parades & Carnival Games From 15 Jun
Pokemon fans in Singapore seem to be having the time of their life thanks to the Pokemon Go Safari Zone and the recently opened Pokemon Centre at Jewel Changi.
But the party’s far from over since Sentosa announced that they’ll be playing host to the first-ever Pokemon Carnival.
From 15 to 30 June, Pokemon lovers can visit a massive 5-metre inflatable Pikachu and meet a whopping 403 types of Pokemon in the Alolan region of Sentosa Cove Village.
Looks like June holiday plans for the kiddos are settled. Here’s what else to expect.
Catch all 403 Alolan pokemon & play carnival games
Many of us spent our entire childhood watching many Pokemon adventures on TV.
This time, we’ll experience our own Pokemon Adventures, snag some activity booklets and discover tons of Pokemon in an island. We hear that Pokemon plushies will be up for grabs too, if you join in the festivities.
Thanks to the Carnival Game Vouchers, guests can experience four carnival games and win Pokemon stickers. We’ve always wanted to try using Pokeballs in real-life, and we might get the opportunity to do just that.
Kids can learn about each Pokemon by scanning the QR codes on the Pokémon standees scattered around Sentosa Cove Village. They can use what they’ve learned to answer questions in these mysterious Pokemon boards.
Get the chance to meet these adorable Pokemon mascots. Here’s to hoping that you don’t get electrocuted by lightning bolts in exchange for a hug.
Pikachu parades & dance parties
Those who loved the Pikachu Parade last December can relive their adorable butt-shaking and ear-wagging with return of the Pikachu Parade.
We don’t have details about the event yet, but we recall last year’s parade featuring Pikachu’s glowing afro wigs, funky fashion and neon-lit costumes.
Get ready for more surprises and groovy nights as Pikachu’s LED costume changes colour according to the beat.
Massive 5-metre Pikachu float & Pokémon inflatables
The adventure doesn’t stop there. Kids can make new friends and jump inside this huge Pokémon-themed inflatable slide and ball pit.
Just like any Pokemon adventure, they’ll make new friends and conquer obstacles through teamwork.
We went gaga over the massive inflatable Lapras last April, and this time we can hang out with a 5-metre inflatable Pikachu.
While we don’t have an image of actual float yet, we think that this huge Pikachu float from Changi Airport is close to the real deal.
Catch ‘em all at Sentosa Cove
With the school holidays upon us, Pokemon Carnival is the perfect event to celebrate your love of Pokemon and pass it on to your kids.
There’s no need to break the bank to live like Ash Ketchum because admission is free.
The Pokemon Parade and meet and greet sessions won’t be available everyday so check out their website for more details.
Here are some details about the event:
Location: Sentosa Cove
Date: 15-30 June
Time: 5pm-9pm
