Santa's Town That jolly old bearer of gifts is spending Christmas in Hong Kong, his home-away-from-home, transforming Statue Square in the busy Central business district into a cheery festive winter wonderland crowned by a Dazzling Christmas Tree. Santa's Town is a happy, fun-filled place packed with glittering lights and decorations, where you'll find lots to do at the Snowy Chapel, Santa's Clock Tower and other venues. The area will reverberate with music and laughter as carollers and performers entertain on weekends and holidays.

Dazzling Christmas Tree & Musical Boxes

Rising 35 metres above Santa's Town, the Dazzling Christmas Tree will serve as a beacon drawing people from both sides of the harbour to the Hong Kong WinterFest celebrations. It is lavishly decorated with festive garlands and ornaments. Enchanting mechanical Musical Boxes play festive tunes at 15-minute intervals between 6pm and 11pm every night.

Snowy Chapel & Santa's Clock Tower (with Live Performances) The Snowy Chapel is the focal point for all major events and performances. Enjoy live entertainment on weekend and public holiday evenings when choirs and other performers take to the stage at the Snowy Chapel forecourt.
