It may be sunny all year in Singapore, but CapitaLand Malls is adding a refreshing twist to the season with a lineup of treats, activities, and cool experiences this July.

From chocolate deals and ice cream fests, the Ready, Set, Summer! campaign is a great excuse to leave the house and do something a bit more exciting than just binge-watching shows at home. Running across 15 CapitaLand malls until July 25, it’s an easy option whether you’re planning a date, a family day out, or just want to treat yourself. 

Let's sweat it out: The coolest place to be this July.

 How to score free ice cream & custom bag charms

From July 18 to 24, Plaza Singapura will host the Summer Ice Cream Fest, featuring what is basically the who’s who of the ice cream world — Magnum, Ben & Jerry’s, and Wall’s — swooping in like superheroes to save everyone from Singapore’s heat.

The biggest highlight is the Ice Cream Day Celebration on July 18 and 19, when the trio assembles for a weekend of sweet, ice-cold missions, complete with exciting games and up to $43,000 worth of prizes up for grabs.

All for one: They're like the Avengers of ice cream.

At the DIY Magnum Toppings Bar, visitors can customise La Pistache and La Pêche bars at the DIY Toppings Bar with toppings such as fruits, nuts, sprinkles, and chocolate or pistachio sauces. There’ll also be a Magnum Peach & Pistachio Toss Challenge, where players can score prizes such as Magnum Monopoly sets, tote bags, and dessert bowls.

Magnum force: Customise your La Pistache and La Pêche bars at the DIY Toppings Bar with fruits, nuts, sprinkles, and chocolate or pistachio sauces. 

Ben & Jerry’s fans can look forward to the brand’s new Churrifically Churros-y and Strawberry Doughnut-eee flavours, plus a Donut Toss game with exclusive prizes such as foldable bags, phone straps, socks, pouches, ceramic bowls, udder cups, and mini beach chairs.

Good luck choosing a fave: Dig into the all-new Strawberry Doughnut-eee and Churrifically Churros-y flavours.

Over at Wall’s, it’s all about old-school fun with crowd-favourite sticks like Wall's Ice Ball Series or iconic Wall's Ice Cream Sticks, and a lively lineup of carnival games. 

Wall to Wall: Get nostalgic with Wall's sticks. 

Think good music, cool treats, and a relaxed outdoor buzz. As the tunes set the mood, get hands-on with customisable keepsakes such as a Ben & Jerry’s canvas bag and Magnum bag tag, so you can hop on the bag charm trend while showing off your love for ice cream.

The Ice Cream Day Celebration is open to members who spent at participating CapitaLand malls from 29 May to 26 Jun and received the Ice Cream Day Celebration Registration eVoucher. From 13 Jul, eligible members can key in the reward code <ICECREAM> on the CapitaStar app to unlock the eVoucher and register for the event.

The fun doesn’t stop after the weekend. Shoppers can continue enjoying sampling stations and games through 24 Jul, keeping the ice cream-filled festivities going for another few days.

Not ready to call it a day? Head to this outdoor party next

And if you’re still not ready to say goodbye, July 25 brings one more reason to keep the good vibes going with ICS Presents: Field Trip, Ice Cream Sundays’ 10th anniversary celebration.

Taking place on a green field at Science Park Road, across from Teletech Park, the outdoor party will feature Australian DJ duo Wax’o Paradiso, alongside Halia and Ice Cream Sundays’ resident DJs Bongomann, Muto, and Toppings. 

Field of dreams: This will definitely be the coolest place in town.

This is definitely more than just a music event. Attendees can look forward to activities such as a portrait train, botanical headpiece workshop, silk screen merch station, ambient movement and meditation session, chillout corner, food trucks, pop-up bars, kids’ games and art activities. The event is also dog-friendly, so even your furry plus-one can join the day out.
