If a silly old bear with a concerning honey addiction played any part in your childhood, there’s a fun trip down memory lane waiting at Festival Walk this summer. 

To mark 100 years of A.A. Milne’s beloved Winnie the Pooh, a giant celebration pop-up is taking over the mall from now until September 3, complete with forest-themed installation, photo spots, workshops, and a ton of exclusive 100th anniversary merch to take home.

Visitors can wander through a replica of Pooh and Piglet’s cosy cottage, before dropping by Tigger’s party corner and a 1.5-metre display wall stacked with plush toys. There’s also a Snapio photo booth featuring five anniversary frame designs, as well as a DIY fragrance mist bottle workshop where you can customise your own scent bottle with limited-edition stickers.

To bring home a piece of the Hundred Acre Wood, the shop is stocked with an array of goodies including Hong Kong-exclusive items like plush key chain blind boxes ($99), mini makeup finger puffs with a honeypot holder ($78), fluffy tote bags ($298), and a themed Fujifilm Quicksnap camera kit ($598). Shoppers who spend $300 or more will receive a reusable shopping bag, while those dropping $800 or more will get their hands on a Winnie the Pooh red balloon cosmetic bag. 

The Winnie the Pooh 100th Anniversary Pop-Up Store is open daily from 11am to 9pm at LG2, Festival Walk, until September 3.
