If you’ve been on the lookout for a reason to refresh your wardrobe with stylish, comfortable pieces while enjoying some thoughtful freebies, UNIQLO Singapore’s bi-annual Thank You Festival this May is definitely worth your attention. Running from 23 to 29 May 2025, this event is more than just a sale — it’s a heartfelt celebration of their customers and the vibrant local culture, wrapped up in great deals, exclusive product launches, and meaningful rewards.
Why This Festival is a Must-Visit
There are plenty of reasons why people should take advantage of this event. First and foremost, UNIQLO is not just offering discounts but also giving back to their loyal customers with exclusive gifts and promotions. Shoppers who spend $100 or more during this period will receive a limited-edition lunch bag, a cute mixed rice keychain, and $10 off vouchers (when using DBS or POSB cards). These gifts are not just practical but carry a fun local twist that Singaporeans will truly appreciate.
Secondly, this festival goes beyond fashion by showcasing local culture through art and design. UNIQLO’s UTme! collection features new T-shirts illustrated by renowned Singaporean artists Tiffany Lovage and Kenneth Seow. These tees celebrate some of the nation’s most beloved hawker food dishes — think Hainanese Chicken Rice, Chilli Crab, Katong Laksa, Kaya Butter Toast Set, and Bak Kut Teh. Wearing one of these limited-edition designs is a fresh way to show pride in local heritage, all while sporting comfortable, quality apparel.
Additionally, the festival features attractive prices on UNIQLO’s summer LifeWear essentials. With Singapore’s hot and humid climate, pieces like the AIRism Cotton Oversized T-shirt, Ultra Stretch Jogger Pants, and Premium Linen Shirts are perfect picks for staying cool yet stylish. These garments are designed with Japanese fabric technology that is breathable and lightweight, making them a smart investment for your everyday wear.
Lastly, there is a philanthropic element woven through the event. UNIQLO’s Project Neighbours Helping Neighbours initiative encourages shoppers to donate gently used LifeWear clothing, which is then given to those in need — including youths and rough sleepers. So not only can customers refresh their wardrobe, but they can also contribute positively to the community.
Exclusive Free Gifts for Shoppers
Spending $100 or more during the Thank You Festival unlocks a range of exclusive rewards that make shopping at UNIQLO even sweeter. The limited-edition lunch bag is a standout item — practical, durable, and stylish. With a water-repellent exterior and leak-proof interior, it’s perfect for anyone who brings lunch to work or school, or simply needs a reliable bag for meals on the go.
For a more playful touch, those visiting the Orchard Central or Jewel Changi Airport stores between 23 and 25 May can customise their own mixed rice keychain. This quirky, miniature accessory features tiny dishes like vegetables, meats, and fried sides — a nod to the local mixed rice meal that many Singaporeans love. It’s a unique keepsake that’s both cute and meaningful, making it a memorable souvenir from the festival.
Additionally, customers using DBS or POSB cards for their purchases get $10 off when they spend $100 or more. This collaboration with one of Singapore’s largest banks adds even more value to the shopping experience, making the already generous rewards feel like an even bigger win.
Celebrating Singapore’s Food Culture Through Fashion
One of the most exciting aspects of this year’s Thank You Festival is the introduction of new UTme! T-shirts that celebrate Singapore’s hawker food scene. The artwork on these tees comes from local artists who have captured the essence of some of Singapore’s favourite dishes in vibrant, cartoon-style illustrations.
Each design pays homage to a classic dish that has a special place in Singapore’s culinary landscape:
-
Hainanese Chicken Rice: Known for its fragrant rice and tender chicken served with sauces, it’s a comforting staple beloved by many.
-
Chilli Crab: Iconic for its rich tomato-chilli sauce paired with crispy fried mantou buns.
-
Katong Laksa: A spicy noodle dish with prawns and coconut broth that’s rich in flavour.
-
Kaya Butter Toast Set: Nostalgic breakfast fare featuring kaya toast, soft-boiled eggs, and kopi or teh.
-
Bak Kut Teh: Pork ribs simmered in peppery herbal soup, usually accompanied by youtiao and chilli soy sauce.
These tees are exclusive to Orchard Central, VivoCity, and Jewel Changi Airport stores, adding a touch of Singaporean identity to your casual wardrobe.
Great Offers on Summer LifeWear Essentials
Apart from the unique rewards and local art T-shirts, festival attendees can also enjoy great deals on UNIQLO’s summer clothing collection. Known for its innovation and comfort, LifeWear includes pieces that suit Singapore’s climate perfectly.
For example, the AIRism Cotton Oversized T-shirt offers breathability and softness, ideal for keeping cool during the sweltering heat. The Ultra Stretch Jogger Pants combine style with comfort, making them perfect for everyday wear or casual outings. Premium Linen Shirts bring a light, airy feel to the wardrobe, adding a touch of elegance without sacrificing comfort.
These items are available at special prices for a limited time during the festival, giving customers the chance to stock up on essentials for the season without breaking the bank.
Give Back While You Shop
The Thank You Festival also shines a light on UNIQLO’s ongoing commitment to the community through their Project Neighbours Helping Neighbours. Customers are encouraged to donate gently used LifeWear items during their shopping trips, knowing these clothes will be passed on to those who need them most.
To date, this initiative has distributed over 30,000 pieces of clothing to more than 3,000 individuals, including young people and those experiencing homelessness. This gives shoppers an extra reason to participate in the festival — they can refresh their wardrobe, enjoy great rewards, and feel good about helping others at the same time.
Why You Should Go
Overall, this year’s UNIQLO Thank You Festival is a well-rounded event that caters to more than just bargain hunters. It’s a celebration of customer appreciation, local culture, and community spirit. Whether you’re after exclusive freebies, want to showcase your love for Singaporean hawker food through fashion, or simply need comfortable summer clothing, there is something for everyone.
The added benefit of receiving a $10 voucher with DBS and POSB card purchases and being able to customise a unique keychain adds a fun and interactive element to the shopping experience. Plus, the opportunity to donate pre-loved clothes ensures that your participation has a positive impact beyond just your personal wardrobe.
