Christmas in the Tropics – Singapore’s Six-Week Christmas Celebration

Singapore’s “Christmas in the Tropics” is a (mostly) secular festival, celebrated with a highlight on shopping, entertainment, Christmas lights, and Santa showing up in full furs despite the fact that Singapore is smack in the middle of the tropics.

The shopping districts of Orchard Road and Marina Bay explode in a shower of light, while adjoining malls and shopping centers put on extended hours and special deals to attract sightseeing tourists. And when New Year ticks down, countdown parties will pull out all the stops!

Here’s a rundown of what you can do during Christmas in Singapore:
Singapore Christmas Light-Ups

Every Christmas in Singapore, Orchard Road and Marina Bay’s streets glow with stunning light shows that blaze through the island’s prime shopping and entertainment districts. This, combined with the late mall hours and promos put in place during Christmas season, make nighttime shopping in Singapore way more fun.

Orchard Road Christmas Light-Up. The Orchard Road light-up – a spectacular street-length light show – stretches over a mile down from Tanglin to Concorde Hotel. For 2011, the light show will have a distinctly floral theme – officially named “Christmas Blooms in Singapore”, the street lamps sprout glowing flowers and tendrils of blinking lights.

2011′s Orchard Light-Up begins on November 19, and shuts down on January 2, 2012. For hotels in the vicinity of the Orchard Light-Up, read this article: Hotels on or near Orchard Road, Singapore.

Celebrate Christmas in Singapore Event. From December 16 to 25, a spread of nightly performances, parades, and displays will entertain the crowds doing their last-minute Christmas shopping on Orchard Road.
