Orchard Gateway has Butterbear blind boxes, meet-and-greet, and up to S$40 vouchers this Christmas

Fans of the cuddly, viral Thai character Butterbear are in for a treat this holiday season.

From now till 30 Dec, Orchard Gateway is celebrating Butterbear’s first Christmas in Singapore with a festive takeover featuring a giant candy house, exclusive collectibles, shopping rewards, and a special meet-and-greet opportunity.

Spend S$120 to redeem a Butterbear blind box and S$10 voucher

If you’ve been eyeing Butterbear merchandise, this is your chance to get your hands on some exclusive collectibles through Orchard Gateway’s Christmas spend-and-redeem promotions.

Starting with a minimum spend of S$120, you’ll receive a Buttery Sweet Charm Blindbox containing a plushie and eco bag, along with a S$10 mall voucher.

For those who prefer something a little more practical, spending S$180 gets you a Buttery Sweet Rug in one of two designs, plus a one-hour parking coupon.

Meanwhile, if you’re planning to get most of your Christmas shopping done in one trip, the S$350 tier might be worth considering. You’ll walk away with both the blind box and rug, plus S$30 in mall vouchers and a S$20 F&B voucher for JEN Singapore Orchardgateway by Shangri-La.

That means you can treat yourself to a meal after all that shopping or save the vouchers for another visit.

Redemptions are available while stocks last. You can combine up to five same-day receipts, with a maximum of two redemptions per shopper per day.

Mastercard users can get up to S$40 in mall vouchers

And if you’ve got a Mastercard in your wallet, there’s another way to get something back from your Christmas shopping.

Shoppers who spend S$400 using a locally issued Mastercard from 13 Nov to 20 Dec can redeem S$30 in mall vouchers.

Those using an overseas-issued Mastercard can get S$40 in mall vouchers with the same minimum spend, with this promotion running until 27 Dec.

Do note that receipts cannot be reused across the different promotions, so it’s worth checking which redemption gives you the better deal before submitting them.

Catch Butterbear and Biancabear’s free dance performance on 27 Nov

Beyond the shopping perks, there’s another reason to mark 27 Nov on your calendar, especially if you’ve always wanted to see Butterbear in person.

Butterbear and her big sister Biancabear will make their first meet-and-greet appearance in Singapore at Orchard Gateway’s Level 1 Atrium, with sessions at 6.30pm and 8.30pm.

Dressed in festive outfits, the adorable duo will put on a special dance performance at each session, free for everyone to enjoy.

If you’re hoping to snap a photo with the pair, however, you’ll need a little luck on your side.

Remember those Butterbear spend-and-redeem promotions mentioned earlier? Shoppers who redeem any tier between 11 and 23 Nov will be entered into a lucky draw for an exclusive meet-and-greet photo pass.

With up to two redemptions allowed per shopper each day, you can also increase your chances by making qualifying purchases on different days.

Snap pics at a 6.5m-tall candy house while you’re there

Of course, you don’t have to meet Butterbear herself to bring home some cute Christmas memories.

The mall has also been decked out with themed installations, including a 6.5m-tall Sweet Candy House at The Plaza, complete with pink-and-red candy cane decorations, gingerbread-inspired details, and 10 Butterbear figures standing 1.2m tall, each dressed in a different Christmas outfit.

Once you’ve snapped your photos there, head up to The Space on Level 3, where Butterbear and her friends are surrounded by Christmas trees, candy canes, and colourful decorations against a pink cottage backdrop.

And don’t forget to look up while walking through The Tube, which has been given a festive makeover with hanging presents, ornaments, candy cane-inspired pillars, and more Butterbear characters along the way.

If you’re making a day of it, you can also check out Soap Ministry for a hands-on activity, whether it’s making your own customised soap or crafting an adorable animal keychain. It’s a fun way to take a break from shopping and bring home something you’ve made yourself.
