The Festival will be held at Orchard Central Global Flagship Store from 29 July to 7 August 2022 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of UNIQLO's graphic T-shirt brand.
Venue: Orchard Central Global Flagship Store
Date: 29 Jul to 7 Aug 2022
UNIQLO first launched its UT brand in 2003, conceived from the idea that T-shirts could serve as a canvas for art and individual expression. Presenting cultures from the realms of art, music, film and more, UT has seen a trove of collaborations with globally renowned artists and brands to excite fans. In recent years, the UT brand has expanded its lineup beyond the humble T-shirt into sweats, homewear, accessories and more.
A manifestation of this belief, the UT Fan Festival 2022 presents a lineup of news and activities in collaboration with some of Singapore’s homegrown collaborators to celebrate UT’s spirit of culture and expression, including new UT collections and iconic favourites.
