It’s officially time to be in the mood for the Christmas season. We know it’s time, because the Christmas tree at Ngee Ann City – the huge one – was officially lit up on 15 November.
Tiffany & Co. was in charge of the ceremony this time. Having adorned the tree with their signature Tiffany & Co. colours and ornaments, it’s not easy to associate the tree with the store which is situated just outside it.

That evening, a series of events were worth noting. Henry Golding from Fly Entertainment led the guests in the anticipation of the light up. Upon the countdown the adorable children from Kids Performing Academy Choir sang joyously to “Happy Holidays!”

And what’s Christmas without Santa? He made a special appearance instore to read a special story by Tiffany & Co. to the kids, and being the celebrity he is, he took many photos with the guests.
A special moment was marked for Tiffany & Co. and a couple. A boy decided to propose to his girl there and then at the store. With the aid of Santa, the Christmas carol duo and a box containing an engagement ring from Tiffany, the lovers made the event one of their own.
Now that the season has been ushered in, its you turn to have Happy Holidays!
