Suria KLCC mall has launched its enchanting Christmas celebration to welcome shoppers into the magical Gingerbread Christmas Village at the centre court on Nov 28.

The Christmas campaign runs from Nov 24, 2023 to Jan 1, 2024, drawing inspiration from the cherished tradition of making gingerbread men and gingerbread houses during the festive season.

The Gingerbread Christmas Village features Gingerbread buildings adorned with delectable “icing” and candy-coloured decorations. A Gingerbread Chocolate Fountain also stands tall with its luscious cascades, adding to the allure of this fanciful atmosphere.

The centrepiece, a magnificent Gingerbread Clock Tower, comes to life as a Gingerbread Man dances to festive music when the clock strikes each hour. There is the Gingerbread Toyshop where an array of toys and gifts await, accompanied by a festive photobooth for creating lasting memories.

At the Gingerbread Post Office, shoppers can pen heartfelt greetings on postcards for loved ones. These Christmas postcards, stamped with Suria KLCC stamps, can be obtained by purchasing the Suria Ribbon Pin. The sales of the ribbon pin support selected non-governmental organisations that champion mental health.

Also, Suria KLCC is donating RM3,000 to the Dignity for Children Foundation as part of their corporate social responsibility initiatives this Christmas.

Shoppers can take part in a fun Gingerbread Man Personality Quiz to unveil their persona and receive a limited-edition Gingerbread Man pin.

During weekends and on Christmas Day, Santa Claus and Ms. Claus will  make special appearance to delight young and old alike.

Meanwhile, the Gingerbread Bakery & Candy Shop invites shoppers to decorate Christmas cookies for a delightful takeaway.

At the esplanade outside of Suria KLCC, visitors will be enchanted by Malaysia’s tallest Christmas tree, adorned with charming Gingerbread-themed ornaments and bathed in festive hues.

To add to the festive cheer, shoppers who spend RM1,500 and above in two receipts will be rewarded with a RM100 Suria KLCC Shopping e-Voucher.

Suria KLCC Sdn Bhd CEO Andrew Brien said: “At Suria KLCC, the holiday spirit isn’t just about shopping; it’s a celebration of family connections, joy and the magic of every moment. The towering Christmas tree, standing proudly at 100 feet, symbolises our commitment to fostering togetherness, generosity and spreading joy throughout the city.”
