One of the most well-known of all Christmas markets in Singapore is Christmas Wonderland at Gardens by the bay. An annual affair since 2014, it is the biggest Yuletide fair created to captivate visitors with its combination of light sculptures, magical activities and charming little huts with merchandise, perfect for the little ones. It boasts one of the largest Santa’s Grotto in Asia, along with an outdoor skating rink. Let the children try out the carnival games and kiddy rides while the family awaits the scheduled ‘snow’ fall, it is in our opinion a very heartwarming, instagrammable moment to capture. This year Christmas Wonderland will be held from the 30 November to the 26 December 2018, every day from 4 pm to 11 pm. Tickets are available online.

Loop’s Christmas Pop Up

Next on the list I personally find exciting, LOOP’s Christmas Pop Up! Loop (the Urban Void Deck Project) is holding a pop-up festive market for the whole month of December 2018! It prides itself on championing for sustainability and craft, while inspiring action and positive change. With all of us starting to become aware of our environment and making eco-friendly choices, this Christmas Loop gives us the opportunity to learn more and shop sustainably! It features vendors that believe in sustainable farming, sustainable fashion or sustainable well-being.

Besides the many brands they offer, there will also be activities and experiences to compliment your shopping experience. This festive market would be held at Esplanade Park over the weekends for the whole of December, you can find more details on their Facebook page.
