10 Must-Visit Christmas Markets in Singapore to End 2025 with a Bang

It’s time to queue the Mariah Carey playlist. Singapore is pulling out all the stops this holiday season, transforming the island into a glittering wonderland of markets, carnivals, and light-ups. From pet-friendly Sanrio parties to shopping for bespoke gifts in a sub-zero cold room, here are the 10 essential festive spots to hit this December.

1. Togetherland by World Christmas Market

After a solid debut last year, the World Christmas Market is back—and it has doubled in size. Taking over a massive 20,000 sqft at the Bayfront Event Space, “Togetherland” features nine immersive zones. Expect larger-than-life displays, live music, and a gastronomic spread featuring roasts, cocktails, and the essential Christmas staple: mulled wine.

2. Christmas on a Great Street (Orchard Road)

It isn’t Christmas in Singapore without a stroll down Orchard Road. The iconic light-up returns with nightly snowfall shows and multimedia projection mapping on the side of the Hilton Singapore Orchard. Beyond the lights, hunt for the “Santa’s Trishaw Sleigh” photo op and browse the pop-up stalls lining the street.

3. The Great Christmas Village

Orchard Road’s carnival fun is doubling down with two locations this year: Ngee Ann City and Shaw House. It is a nostalgia trip packed with amusement rides, claw machines, a trampoline, and a bouncy castle. Look out for the 14-metre tall tree at the Civic Plaza and a Reindeer Train that the kids will love.

4. Christmas Wonderland at Gardens by the Bay

The heavy hitter of Singapore’s festive calendar is back. This year, catch a “Flying Santa” soaring above the Supertrees, marvel at a 16-metre Christmas Pyramid, and snap photos with the stunning 20-metre Spalliera light display (featuring 90,000 bulbs).

5. Christmas Enchantment at Capitol & CHIJMES

For a touch of old-world charm, head to the City Hall area. CHIJMES will host its famous projection mapping shows on the Hall facade and snowfall sessions at the Mini Lawn. Meanwhile, the connecting Capitol Singapore will host a market featuring local specialty crafts and handmade accessories.

6. The Christmas Atelier 2025

If your aesthetic is “luxury floral,” this is the market for you. Held at Asia Square, this immersive boutique event features over 100 artisanal brands like Romi Beauty and Patisserie Woo. It’s a curated shopping experience set against a backdrop of stunning floral installations.

7. One Holland Village Weekend Christmas Market

Calling all paw-parents: this is the pet-friendly event of the season. One Holland Village is teaming up with Sanrio for a whimsical market featuring a Hello Kitty and Friends Christmas tree. Shop for yourself and your fur-kids from vendors like Plops Pet and The Pets Couture.

8. Design Assembly Christmas Market

For those who prefer bespoke over mass-produced, this intimate market at the CHIJMES Chapel is a goldmine. Featuring 45+ homegrown brands like Eden & Elie and Artisan of Sense, it’s the perfect spot to find unique jewelry and fragrances while sipping on mulled wine.

9. Almost December at Far East Flora Market

Want to feel like you’re in a winter climate? Head to the “Cold Room” at Far East Flora’s Clementi centre to sip hot Milo and chocolate surrounded by fresh pine trees. You can buy live Christmas trees, poinsettias, and shop from 25 lifestyle brands.

10. Boutiques: The Gifting Edition 2025

The ultimate shopping pilgrimage returns to the F1 Pit Building. With over 320 designers under one roof, this is the place to sort out your entire gift list in one go. Look out for exclusive launches from brands like In Good Company and enjoy the extensive food and cafe pop-ups.
