Christmas and New Year's Eve 2024 in Singapore

By VisitSingapore and Singapore Tourism Board

You might not get snow or reindeers, but Christmas in Singapore is as big as any other celebration during the year. Christmas in Singapore is a big celebration that gives us all another excuse to do what we love most—Eat and shop.

Christmas Wonderland at Gardens By The Bay
Get into the Christmas spirit at VivoCity

The famous shopping belt on Orchard Road is spectacularly lit up every December to ramp up the festive mood, and serves as a blazing reminder to hit the malls and indulge in shopping sprees. Meanwhile, Christmas spreads and Yuletide menus pop up at restaurants across the island, giving a festive twist to an already impressive dining scene.

As one would expect from Singapore’s melting pot of different cultures and religions, Christmas in our city comes with its own unique Asian twists. Family get-togethers and bouts of feasting are common, and traditional dishes like turkey tend to get a good dose of local flavour, with Asian seasonings and herbs such as ginger and chilli.
