It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas after Orchard Road's Christmas light-up was officially launched by President Tony Tan Keng Yam on Saturday night.
This year's light-up, called Christmas on a Great Street, has three zones, each with its own motif: Tree for Joy at Tanglin, Heart for Love at Orchard and Dove for Peace at Somerset.
Nightly live musical shows will also be staged from Dec 17 to 25 in four areas along the walkway in Orchard Road between Scotts and Bideford roads.
