“Christmas Wonderland has always been a highlight of the festive season, and a much-anticipated experience for many of our visitors. We hope to wow visitors by creating a magical and joyous atmosphere, incorporating traditional elements and old favourites, as well as new attractions that everyone can appreciate. We hope everyone will have a wonderful time with their loved ones as they enjoy the sights and activities at Christmas Wonderland at Gardens by the Bay,” said Kevin Soh, Executive Director of event organiser Blue Sky Events Pte Ltd.

Christmas Wonderland Double-Storey Carousel

Located at the heart of Christmas Wonderland, St. Nick’s Square is the event’s largest activity zone. The crown jewel is the stunning Spalliera, intricately hand-crafted by Italian artisans and features 103,000 LED bulbs. The luminarie stands majestically at 21 metres – the height of five double-decker buses. Just around the corner is Santa, who is standing by to greet visitors before he heads off to deliver presents around the world. A wondrous ride awaits onboard the Venetian Double-Storey Carousel, as a festive edition of the Garden Rhapsody light and sound show at the Supertrees keeps visitors spellbound.

Over at Gingerbread Grove, marvel at the 10-metre tall Whimsical Windmill, a brand new kinetic light display set in a field of 250 candy canes lit by more than 35,000 bulbs. The highly popular Walk of Lights has been upgraded, with 50,000 programmable LED lights illuminating a myriad of colours along a 50-metre long tunnel.

Visitors can look forward to experiencing ‘winter’ in the tropics this year at Merry Lane’s Snowland. The attraction will feature an illuminated igloo, polar bears, and fluffy white ‘snow’. Within the vicinity will also be a series of brand-new light displays influenced by the themes of Christmas, such as the Jolly Express, Poinsettia Castle and a Gingerbread House promising countless photo opportunities.

Set amidst an array of festive lights and enchanting decorations, Mistletoe Alley features a row of festive huts selling crafts and gifts, making it the perfect stop for Christmas shopping. For a whole lot of fun, head over to the Games Village and have a go at a selection of traditional carnival games such as Fishy Fishy, Ring Toss, Pyramid Smash, High-Striker and more!

No Yuletide festival is complete without embarking on a tantalising journey as ELFresco makes a comeback with some of Singapore’s popular food and beverage establishments such as Brewerkz, Burger & Lobster, Hendrick’s, Pita Tree, Sofnade and more serving up delectable festive bites and tipples. To top off the magical experience, visitors will be serenaded by daily performances of festive tunes by local artists throughout the event.
