Most of us find ourselves at Jewel Changi Airport when we’re looking to kill time before our flight, or simply to shop and dine during the weekend.
For patrons visiting the shopping centre between now and Apr 2023, there will be something entirely new and magical for them to look forward to.
Disney is celebrating its 100th anniversary here in Singapore, and they’re doing it in grand fashion at Jewel Changi with a light and sound show, photo spots, and merchandise.

Throughout the show, there will be a medley of familiar Disney hits to sing along to, like ‘You’ve Got A Friend In Me’, ‘A Whole New World’, and more.
Prior to that, there will be a surprise performance along with a meet-and-greet with classic Disney characters.
If you can’t make it by 15 Jan, the light and sound show will still be available in a shorter form that runs until 9 Apr.
10 photo spots with scenes from Disney, Marvel & Star Wars
The HSBC Rain Vortex is not the only spot at Jewel Changi that has been given the Disney treatment.
Shiseido Forest Valley has also been transformed with 10 photo spots of famous scenes from Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars movies and series to take pictures at.
Some of these spots have even been given a Singaporean touch, like one which features our national flower – Vanda Miss Joaquim – alongside flowers from the movie Encanto.

Other classic movies that are a part of the photo spots include Toy Story, Lion King, Winnie the Pooh, and Up.
Fans of Disney can also snap shots at the Disney100 archway, behind which a 4-metre tall platinum statue of Mickey Mouse stands tall.
Additionally, there will be meet-and-greet sessions at the Shiseido Forest Valley until 15 Jan, and they are wholly open to the public.
For true-blue Disney enthusiasts, dressing up like their favourite characters will even grant them a free pass to the Canopy Park.
