Orchard Road's Christmas light-up

With the theme "Love This Christmas" as a reminder that no distance should stop anyone from showing love to those they care about, the light-up will not only be available for viewing physically this year, but also virtually for the first time ever!

The public can "drive" along the 2.88km stretch from Tanglin Mall to Dhoby Ghaut, including Scotts Road, in an all-new virtual 360° tour accessible from Singapore and around the world.

Christmas ornaments and white and gold baubles will hang from trees and lamp posts that line the boulevard.

To minimise the risks of crowds gathering to ensure the health and safety of the public, there will be no Great Christmas Village this year, which in previous years served as the hub for street food, amusement rides, games and performances.

However, the gorgeous light-up will surely be enough to surround you with Christmas vibes!
