Jewel Changi Airport (Jewel), which is a multi-dimensional tourist destination, will be opening its doors to the world on April 17, 2 019.
Featuring a distinctive dome-shaped façade made of glass and steel, Jewel’s design represents the juxtaposition of a park and marketplace. The lush Forest Valley and majestic Rain Vortex that take centerstage in the complex, surrounded by over 280 retail stores and eateries.
Changi Airport Group (CAG) said in a press statement that Singapore residents will get to have a sneak peek of Jewel before the public opening. To be held from 11 to 16 April, the preview will be a ticketed event, but free of charge. Registration will open online on March 12, at 6am. Each member of the public can register for up to four participants. A total of about 500,000 tickets will be available.
The repertoire of exciting stores include the following anchors: the largest Nike store in Southeast Asia, Marks & Spencer, MUJI, ZARA, UNIQLO, Shaw Theatres with IMAX and FairPrice Finest with unique features such as exclusive products and specially curated sections and event areas. Five Spice, the food court operated by Food Junction, will also feature over 10 local brands. They include Faai Di by Ka-Soh and Fu Lin Yong Tofu, which have more than 20 years of culinary heritage.
CAG noted that as Changi Airport is well-served by public transport, members of the public are encouraged to use the trains or public buses when visiting.
Apart from the Changi Airport MRT station, there are several bus services operating at T1, T2 and T3. T1 is seamlessly integrated with Jewel via the Level 1 Arrival Hall, while T2 and T3 are linked to Jewel via air-conditioned pedestrian linkways.
The new T1/Jewel car park, which opened partially in November 2018, will be fully operational from April 11. The car park spans five underground levels from B2M to B5.
