‘Tis the season to sip pumpkin spiced latte, turn into a couch potato, and stream Christmas movies on repeat. Your lazy mode is activated and there’s no turning it off.
…Or so you thought, before stumbling upon this lit lineup of Christmas festivities at Capitol Singapore and CHIJMES that’ll convince you to get up and get out. There’s a European market, live bands, and snowfall, along with FIFA World Cup live screenings happening from now till 26th December 2022.
A good ol’ Christmas market is exactly what you need to get into the festive spirit.
Head to the Outdoor Plaza at Capitol Singapore and look for booths laden with lights. They sell everything from home decor and seasonal snacks to handmade trinkets, and will give you a reason to browse for hours.
Have a look at an array of freshly baked bread, fine wine, and unique crafts designed by charity organisations – these are displayed alongside flowers and balloons.
When you’re not shopping, you can channel your inner Alicia Keys by the Singing Tree and hum along with the Christmas Carollers.
