This year's theme 'One Christmas One Hope' represents a message of peace and harmony. It speaks of communal unity and hope creating a positive Christmas experience both in Singapore and around the world.
The aim of CCIS is to capture and magnify these moments. Join us in celebrating Christmas this season from 18-25 December 2009 along Orchard Road and in front of Plaza Singapura with nightly performances starting from 7pm till 11pm.
| This year CCIS is excited to offer the following events and attractions to our community in Singapore! | |
|---|---|
| The Christmas Village | One of Singapore's long standing and proud national monuments, St. Andrew's Cathedral has adopted The Christmas Village located in front of Plaza Singapura. This interactive interpretation of the Christmas Story includes a Nativity scene presenting the birth of Jesus in a tangible way and the reason for the season's celebration. |
| Stage Performances (along Orchard Road on both sides of the walkway fronting Wisma Atria & Ngee Ann City) |
We have engaged world class performers, various ethnic groups and people from local churches this year to produce multi-faceted, dynamic presentations including dance, music, drama and fine art. Orchard Road will come alive as the true meaning of Christmas is celebrated in full vibrancy! |
| Floats | People of all generations will get to enjoy these creative masterpieces, artfully crafted in unique and meaningful ways as they parade down Orchard Road and into the heartlands of Singapore. Be mesmerised each night beginning 18 December and culminating on 25 December with a final parade ending on Orchard Road for the main celebrations. |
| CCIS Trees of Hope | This year in front of Wisma Atria along Orchard Road, there will be a unique opportunity to participate in sharing your very own message of hope! The Trees of Hope offer a chance to reflect your hopes and dreams and attach them directly to the Christmas trees. Be a part of the the festivities with your decoration! |
