Christmas season is here.

And you know it because Orchard Road is decked out in lights.

From Nov. 16, 2019 to Jan. 1, 2020, the street will feature various festive decorations along three major zones: Tanglin, Orchard, and Somerset.

This year's theme is "The Greatest Gift", and each precinct will offer a different and unique experience, featuring little Santas on baubles, gift boxes or snowflakes, and more.

First look at "The Greatest Gift" light up

Here's a first look at what you can expect:

1) Tanglin

Enjoy a series of activities at Tanglin mall such as carolling performances, craft workshops and the ever-popular snow foam experience from now till Jan. 1, 2020.

In addition, visitors will be able to take photos of the gigantic Christmas tree as well as a red and gold archway outside the mall for festivity's sake.

Right outside ION Orchard are pillars lit up with fairy lights, as well as a gigantic Christmas tree from luxury brand Bvlgari that changes colour.

Further along the street, visitors will be able to witness these Christmas tree lights with snowflakes, baubles, or gifts on them.

There are 187 of them along the whole of Orchard Road in total.
