From 26 January to 4 March, Singapore’s premier lifestyle and luxury shopping destination, ION Orchard, ushers in the auspicious Year of the Dog in style. Open throughout the season, including the first and second days of the Lunar New Year (16 and 17 February 2018), ION Orchard celebrates the opulence of Spring and ION+ Rewards Members and shoppers will be treated to exclusive sets of complimentary floral-themed red packets and mandarin orange carriers. In addition, shoppers can look forward to a bustling Lunar New Year Fair, filled with exclusive festive-themed offers, exciting promotions and rewards including Lunar New Year ION “Holideals” to redeem, as well as exhilarating lion dance performances at the mall.
Festive Entertainment

Amidst the array of Lunar New Year activities at ION Orchard, shoppers can spend time at a majestic indoor Chinese Zodiac showcase for the perfect photo moments to enjoy with family and friends. Those interested to learn more about their Chinese horoscopes in the New Year can visit these specially curated displays of Chinese zodiac fortunes, located at the Atrium on Level 1.
Interactive festive fun takes form in a photo booth situated on Level 1 Atrium, where shoppers can either snap a photo of themselves, which will digitally transform into an embroidery artwork that they can easily share or retain for keepsake; or enjoy Lunar New Year ION “Holideals” which they can redeem at participating stores by flashing the promo codes. Five lucky shoppers will walk away with a total of $250 worth of vouchers (each will walk home with $50), just by taking part in the mall’s Lunar New Year Facebook contest.

ION Orchard has also organised a series of entertaining and auspicious activities such as the crowd-pleasing lion dance and drums performances (16 to 18 February and 24 to 25 February). The God of Fortune will make an appearance on 16 and 17 February and hand out surprise treats to shoppers.
Prosperity Rewards

Shoppers who are ION+ Rewards members or American Express® Card Members will receive an exclusive set of red packets featuring oriental spring blooms and a mandarin orange carrier with a minimum spend of $80. This year’s design details the elegance of festive floral blooms through intricate and exquisite craftwork.
Springtime Events
Shoppers can also look forward to a series of festive activities, from the Wangderful Festive Pop-up store brimming with traditional Chinese goodies and treats from 2 – 14 February at B4 ION Station, to the first Fendi Kiosk outside of Italy, at Level 1 from 2 to 15 February and Clarins Beauty Station from 24 to 30 January at B4 ION Station.

Romance in the Air
Come February, romance will be in full bloom at ION Orchard. From 8 to 14 February, shoppers stand a chance to win prizes in an exciting Valentine’s Facebook contest where five lucky couples will walk away with $250 worth of shopping vouchers each. Romance will also fill the ‘air’ with the greatest love songs being played in the mall to serenade shoppers.
For the first time this year, shoppers can find the perfect Valentine’s Day gifts, with the debut of an online gift registry, ionorchardwishlist.com/valentines, where they can find a list of curated gift ideas ranging from gourmet delicatessens, home accessories, jewellery collections, fashion accessories and more.
