How To Have A Colour-Coded Holiday Season In Singapore
Can you believe Christmas is just around the corner? Whether you're looking to have a traditional red Christmas or want something more unconventional like pink or black and white, here are some colourful activities you'll want to check out this holiday season.
Pink
Check out: Pinkmas at Museum of Ice Cream
Step into a gloriously pink wonderland filled with unlimited festive treats at the Museum of Ice Cream (MOIC). You're invited to sprinkle all the way through MOIC's magical Pinkmas tree forest, craft a take-home paper gingerbread house, and, of course, sample seasonal delights like pink hot chocolate and peppermint soft serve.
Be sure to also stop by the MOIC Cafe & Bar for delicious festive treats like the massive Pinkmas Sundae, quirky Gingerbread Milkshake, and even a classic yet decadent mug of Eggnog.

Red
Check out: Seasons of Bloom at Gardens by the Bay
The Seasons of Bloom floral display celebrates Gardens by the Bay's 10th anniversary by paying tribute to the various seasons of flowers from around the world that have been showcased at the Flower Dome over the years.
You can look forward to seeing magnificent blooms of snapdragons for spring, delphiniums for summer, zinnias for autumn and cyclamens for winter. And, of course, as the centrepiece for this gorgeous display, the Flower Dome boasts a dazzling horticulture-artistry Christmas tree.
Standing at 8 metres tall and with a diameter of almost 6 metres, this vibrantly coloured tree is crafted with the use of red and white poinsettias to give it a striped pattern that resembles festive candy canes, adding a new twist to this reimagined Christmas tree.
