Even if you’re not big on Christmas, there’s nothing as quintessentially Singaporean as soaking in the festivities down to Orchard Road stretch. And whether you’ve got last-minute gift shopping or feasting to strike off your to-do list, here are a couple more reasons to head down to Orchard Central and Pacific Plaza to do so.
To celebrate this giving season, Far East Malls is bringing you greater savings with their Seasons of Love offers and promotions. For every dollar you chalk up shopping, dining or treating yourself to some TLC, you’ll be rewarded with a whole bunch of goodies from shopping vouchers and free Starbucks beverages to a limited-edition The Paper Bunny cardholder.
Here’s what lies in store:
We all frequent Orchard Central for its many awesome eats and of course, the Japanese mega-mart that is Don Don Donki. If you’re looking for a spot to cosy up for a gathering with family and friends, there’s no shortage of F&B options that will warm you up with Christmas spirit.

P.S. If you need more motivation to head down to Orchard Central, then the mall’s ornate Seasons Of Love displays will provide you plenty of photo backdrops for that year-end group shot. We’ve even featured their elaborate bauble arch and hot-air balloon set-up in our Christmas light-up feature here.
You can even stand a chance to redeem a $5 Far East Malls Voucher when you upload a photo of their Christmas decor to Instagram with the hashtag #OCSeasonsOfLove – just be sure to follow @orchardcentral while you’re at it!
