Tips
- Go early. Orchard Road gets crowded on Christmas Eve.
- Pick a meeting spot in case your group gets separated.
- Consider taking the train in and planning your journey home in advance.
- Keep small children close and bring ear protection if they are sensitive to noise.
Christmas Day, Fri 25 Dec, is a public holiday, so there is no rush the next morning.
