Singapore Tourism Board (STB) invites explorers to virtually experience Singapore’s newest and iconic world-class offerings through “SingapoReimagine Pose Now” campaign, a branded effect on TikTok. The interactive campaign aims to build the excitement of visiting Singapore in collaboration with content creators who will inspire people to participate in the fun TikTok activity.
The campaign will be launched on 17 January 2022 and run until 17 March 2022 as the first SingapoReimagine campaign on TikTok for Southeast Asia that will be simultaneously launched in Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia.

The “SingapoReimagine Pose Now” campaign will introduce a filter that allows people to virtually visit and pose at each of the iconic attractions and have the feeling of being transported to Singapore through the TikTok effect. New and exciting attractions in Singapore to inspire future travel include Museum of Ice Cream, the first ever museum in Asia with multisensory and interactive installations, the historical yet full of surprises Fort Canning Spiral Staircase, and the iconic HSBC Rain Vortex at Jewel Changi Airport, the tallest indoor waterfall in the world.
