Retail therapy meets functional training this September as Watsons Singapore brings back its high-energy wellness takeover. Running from 14 to 20 September 2026 at the Suntec City Atrium (Convention Centre), the third edition of Watsons Get Active shifts the focus from passive browsing to interactive, sweat-inducing fun.
Anchored by the tagline “Move. Fun. Shop. Win Big!”, the week-long festival brings together over 40 heavyweight wellness, personal care, and beauty brands alongside high-stakes athletic trials and steep promotional markdowns of up to 70%.
The Get Active Circuit: Earn Your Basket
For those who fancy putting their endurance where their shopping list is, the centrepiece of the event is the Get Active Circuit. Shoppers who spend $50 at the pop-up receive a game token granting entry to three functional fitness tests:
- Power Toss: Stand three metres from the target and land four goals in 15 seconds, working with eight balls.
- Power Sled: A test of pure drive, requiring female participants to push a 60kg sled across 10 metres (5m x 2) in 20 seconds, while men tackle a 110kg load within 15 seconds.
- Power Grip: An uncompromising dead-hang challenge demanding 80 seconds of hang-time for women and 120 seconds for men.
Clear all three stations, and you could effectively wipe your receipt clean. Watsons is rolling out a daily prize pool of up to $1,000 in cash vouchers, allowing successful contenders to win back their spend until the day’s allocation runs dry.
Bargain Hunting and Daily Drops
If your preferred workout is carrying shopping bags, the retail floor holds its own drawcards.
A no-spend-required Power Strike Card invites visitors to explore partner booths, complete a line in any direction, and walk away with a complimentary gift. Featured brands run the gamut from dermatological skincare to essential nutrition, including La Roche-Posay, Swisse, Anessa, Beauty of Joseon, GreenLife, and Holistic Way.
From Thursday through Sunday, bargain hunters can gather for the Brand Gift Set Auctions. Over 50 curated hampers and sets—valued at $80 and above from labels like Blackmores and Elixir—will start bidding at just $10, with bids rising in $5 or $10 increments.
Additionally, a different Daily Flash Deal will drop each morning, slashing a cult-favourite health or beauty product by at least 70% on a first-come, first-served basis with any purchase.
Tiered Rewards and Perks
To sweeten the haul, several checkout perks run throughout the week:
- Spend $60, Get $15 in Return Vouchers: Includes a $5 in-store voucher (no minimum spend) and a $10 online promo code (minimum $20 spend)
- Complimentary Wellness Goodie Bag: Spend $70 or more to redeem a goodie bag valued at $70 (limited daily quantities).
- New Member Incentives: Lifetime Watsons memberships are available on-site for $3 with a minimum $25 purchase, while first-time app users enjoy $10 off a $28 nett spend.
