You might be familiar with the annual Christmas light-up event on Orchard Road. This year's 38th edition themed "Christmas in Bloom" is not like any of the past. For the first time, a sidewall of Mandarin Orchard will be used to transform into a wall of wonder with multimedia projections. The event celebrates a journey of hope and resilience.
