In honour of Singapore’s 58th birthday, FairPrice Group (FPG) is thrilled to announce its upcoming block parties at two heartland locations, Ang Mo Kio and Jurong West, on 5 August 2023. These exciting events, hosted by FPG’s roving FairPrice on Wheels trucks, are set to pay tribute to local flavours and nostalgic experiences while fostering a sense of community celebration. To add to the festivity, time-limited National Day promotions will also be available from 3 to 16 August 2023.
FairPrice on Wheels, FPG’s Do Good Initiative, launched in 2020, will play a pivotal role in bringing the heartland block parties to life. Attendees from Ang Mo Kio and Jurong, as well as visitors, can look forward to immersing themselves in a carnival-like atmosphere, with over 200 local and housebrand products on display. The block parties will feature specially curated game booths and food stalls showcasing FPG’s own brands and Made in Singapore products, evoking a sense of nostalgia for residents and celebrating the nation’s rich cultural heritage.
One of the highlights of the event is the distribution of a special tote bag to shoppers who make purchases above $10 at the FairPrice on Wheels Truck, exclusively available at the block parties. No registration is required for these block parties, and everyone is warmly invited to join and partake in the complimentary treats and exciting activities lined up for the celebrations.
