Here’s a 1-day Christmas itinerary idea for families who want to do everything at one place

The past couple of years have been rocky, no thanks to Covid-19. 

While most countries have opened up and are now welcoming tourists, there might still be people who are not comfortable travelling and/or are not willing to pay for expensive flight tickets to spend their holidays overseas. 

If you don’t have year-end travel plans and are not sure about where to go with your family this Christmas, fret not.

We have a one-day Christmas itinerary crafted for families who want a fun day out without having to shuttle around Singapore. 

The hidden gem: HarbourFront Centre

From now till Dec. 26, HarbourFront Centre (HFC) will be having a slew of promotions and workshops that will delight folks of all ages. 

Indulge in dazzling deals such as 1-for-1 treatments, S$15 off gift sets and enjoy up to 60 per cent off at various stores! 

Here’s how you can have a fun-filled day at HFC:

Go for an early lunch at Hitoyoshi Yoshi Sushi

Take some cute family pics with Christmas-themed installations located around the mall

Capture precious moments at HFC’s picturesque 7m tall Christmas tree, located at Level 1 North Atrium.

Environmentally conscious Singaporeans will be pleased to know that 40 per cent of the Christmas decorations at HFC are made out of recycled materials. 

The mall also upcycles props instead of making new ones (Christmas tree ornaments such as flowers made out of clothes pegs and iridescent flowers made from CDs). 

Don’t forget to look out for the flowery interactive installation around the tree! Have a go at the blooming flowers ​​which will automatically “bloom” when you walk past it. 

Alternatively, pose for a family photo at the garden bench or lighted arches located at Level 3’s enrichment corridor, where colourful flowers and Christmas presents surround you.
