Singapore weekend planner for Fri 22 → Sun 25 May 2026 — day by day, with the heavy stuff up top so you know what to prioritise.

The framing: Friday is the make-or-break day this week — 4 promos end + 1 new festival opens. Saturday is the McSpicy last day at Bugis + Baa Baa Sheepz warehouse opens. Sunday is the recovery day with Baa Baa final + family-friendly lunch options. If you can only do one day, jump to the TL;DR ranking at the bottom.

### 🟥 Friday 22 May — the heavy day

Five things converge:

1. UNIQLO Thank You Festival opens 10am — free Thank You lunch bag with S$100 spend, DBS/POSB Garapon spin chance, FIRST-EVER Cecilie Bahnsen + Chatterbox UTme drops. Arrive 9:45am at your nearest UNIQLO if you want the lunch bag (limited per outlet) — Festival runs Fri 22 → Wed 28 May. → Full guide

2. Kiehl's 175th Anniversary FINAL DAY — 20%+5% off online + counters, EARLYBIRD pouch for first 50 online shoppers (probably gone by Day 3), 2x bonus points on S$500+ baskets. Last chance to grab the Calendula Toner at ~S$53 or Ultra Facial Cream at ~S$59. → Full guide

3. CHICHA San Chen 70% Off Second Drink FINAL DAY — walk-in only at all SG outlets EXCEPT Jewel Changi. Best pair: 2× Cheese Tea (~S$9.75 total vs S$15 regular). Avoid Friday 8-10pm at popular mall outlets (Bugis+, 313, Marina Bay Link Mall) — last-2-hour rush. → Full guide

4. Popeyes 1-for-1 Midnight Crunch FINAL NIGHT — 2pc Chicken Combo for S$11.10 (vs ~S$22 regular), Mon-Fri 10pm-2am only. Last night-owl play. → Full guide

5. SIFA 2026 ongoing — Friday evening typically has the densest performance schedule. Check sifa.sg for the 22 May line-up; Esplanade + Victoria Theatre venues are walkable from Bugis / Orchard CBD if you're already there for deals.

Compound schedule for Friday (Bugis / Orchard cluster): - 9:45am — queue at UNIQLO Bugis Junction or 313@Somerset - 10:00am — UNIQLO opens, ~30-45 min for fitting + checkout - 11:15am — walk to nearest CHICHA (Bugis+ 5 min from BJ; Plaza Singapura 8 min from UNIQLO PS), order 2 drinks - ~12:00pm — coffee + Kiehl's online checkout from phone (try EARLYBIRD code, check 5% voucher applies) - 12:30pm onwards — your day is yours - 7:30pm — optional SIFA performance at Esplanade - 10:00pm — optional Popeyes Midnight if you want to close it out

### 🟧 Saturday 23 May — McSpicy + Baa Baa day

Two big things:

6. McSpicy Museum at Bugis Junction LAST DAY — 100 free McSpicy burgers, 50 at 12pm + 50 at 5pm. Day-5 queues will be the heaviest of the week — expect 1hr+ at both slots. Arrive 10:30am for the 12pm slot or 3:00pm for the 5pm slot. Free burger value ~S$8.50, no purchase needed. Bugis Junction Atrium, Level 1, opposite Bugis MRT exit C. → Full guide

7. Baa Baa Sheepz FIRST-EVER warehouse clearance sale OPENS — at the brand's HQ, Sat 23 + Sun 24 May only. Deep discounts on sleep sacks, Big Sheepz pillows, swaddles, kids' apparel. Day-1 (Saturday) sees the heaviest selection; Day-2 (Sunday) is what's left. Best for new parents + early-Christmas-shopping pre-orderers. → Full guide

8. UNIQLO Festival Day 2 — Saturday is generally the busiest UNIQLO weekend day; lunch-bag stock may already be depleted at popular outlets (Orchard 313, ION, VivoCity).

9. Nami Korean Grill House by Hanjip — kids eat free Saturday lunch — at Suntec, 3 kids' sets worth S$18++ each, free with paying adult. Books up — reserve at hanjip.com.sg. → Full guide

### 🟨 Sunday 25 May — recovery day

10. Baa Baa Sheepz warehouse FINAL DAY — Sunday afternoon is the quietest time to visit; selection will be picked-over but final markdowns sometimes apply on Day 2 of clearance sales.

11. Nami Korean Grill House kids eat free Sunday lunch — same as Saturday, family-friendly Korean BBQ at Suntec.

12. UNIQLO Festival Day 3 — leftover lunch bags + slowest weekend queues. If you missed Friday's lunch bag, Sunday late afternoon is your best second chance at smaller outlets (Westgate, Tampines Mall) where stock turnover is lower.
