Get ready, Singapore! The World Christmas Market is landing at Marina Bay’s Promontory this December, and it’s set to be a one-of-a-kind holiday celebration for families, friends, and anyone who loves the magic of Christmas. With real pine trees, Santa’s Village, delicious festive treats from around the world, and interactive fun for kids and adults alike, this festive extravaganza is here to bring the holiday spirit to life!
A Warm Welcome to “Christmas, Authentically”
The World Christmas Market is designed with everyone in mind. Whether you’re a long-time Christmas fan or simply love the buzz of the holiday season, this festival promises to transport you to a winter wonderland, right here in sunny Singapore. Imagine the scent of pine trees, twinkling lights, and music filling the air as you stroll through stalls brimming with everything from handcrafted ornaments to heartwarming Glühwein. This Christmas market isn’t just about celebrating; it’s about creating memories with family and friends that you’ll cherish long after the season ends.
Fun for the Whole Family at Saint Nicholas Village
Kids (and parents!) will adore Saint Nicholas Village. This area is all about capturing the imagination of little ones with delightful Christmas tales through pantomime, puppetry, and songs, bringing the timeless stories of Santa and his magical elves to life. It’s not just storytelling; Santa’s Workshop is open for business! Kids can jump in on the action by decorating ornaments, wrapping gifts, and creating festive gift baskets for charity—a wonderful way to spread the joy and teach kids the importance of giving back during the holiday season.
Take a Magical Train Ride on the Merry Magic Express
One of the most unique highlights has to be the Merry Magic Express, an augmented reality train ride that will take visitors on a magical journey across snowy Lapland landscapes, complete with glowing auroras and charming elf villages. The adventure culminates with a “visit” to Santa’s Workshop, where you’ll see the elves busily preparing gifts and making holiday magic. Both kids and adults will be enchanted by this immersive experience, perfect for adding that extra bit of Christmas sparkle!
Christmas Tree Farm and Festive Shopping Galore
If you love the scent of a real pine tree, you’re in luck—the World Christmas Market is setting up an actual Christmas tree farm on-site! You can pick up a beautiful, fresh tree to bring the Christmas spirit home, along with all the trimmings and ornaments you need to make it shine. And, of course, it wouldn’t be a Christmas market without a ton of unique shopping options. From cosy stockings and ornaments to handcrafted gifts, you’ll find everything you need for a perfect holiday.
Feast Street: A Global Holiday Food Adventure

Savour traditional Christmas dishes like roast turkey, Christmas pudding, and mince pies, or try festive treats from all over the world—whether it’s German Glühwein or French pastries. Local vendors will also be serving up special Singaporean holiday twists, so everyone’s tastebuds are in for a treat!
Festive Fun for All Ages
Throughout the market, live entertainment will keep the festive spirit alive, with local bands, dancers, and carolers adding to the cheer.
