Visiting Singapore from UK this Christmas, you will not be missing out the Christmas celebrations, but you will have opportunities to celebrate it the Singapore traditional way. In addition, you can also bask in the balmy heat of the tropical Singapore climate.

With a theme, "Christmas In The Tropics" the festival has already begun showing its colours with a big hit among British tourists. Last year, one in five visitors planned their trip to Singapore coinciding with Christmas celebrations.

The Christmas celebrations for this year commenced on 17th November and extend till 2nd January. The celebrations at Singapore are fully packed with festival shows, shopping, entertainment events, concerts, dance parties and popular and traditional display of Christmas lights at Marina Bay and Orchard Road.

To add up to the charm of Christmas, there is a Christmas fairytale program.  This year's Christmas light-up is inspired by Nutcracker Suite, connected to the story of handsome prince Noel setting out with adventure looking for his lady love Princess Ballerina through the Crystal forest. Most interestingly, the visitors can follow the simulated route of the Prince's adventure. Also, there is a free tour on the Hippo bus on each night between 7pm and 9.30 pm.

Museums, traditional entertainment shows and Christmas theme performances, colourful parades of floats between 15th and 24th December, Christmas night concerts, Musical light shows and a range of other specialties are lined up for an unforgettable Christmas experience.
