Happiness is in the air at OneSiam as the chic alliance of three shopping centers—Siam Paragon, Siam Center, and Siam Discovery—celebrates the festive season with a lighting festival, OneSiam The Festival of Light 2019, that seeks to offer joy and unique extraordinary experiences to holidaymakers. With three unique shopping centers joining hands on the collaboration, you'll get not only one but three mesmerizing Christmas trees and a number of light installations—all promised to lift you up in high spirits and unlimited photo ops!

Make sure to visit the premises on 31 December to be a part of the grand countdown festival at Parc Paragon!

The best photo spots at OneSiam Christmas lights

Siam Paragon

Take a journey to the ice-filled wonderland splashed by the colors of aurora borealis at Siam Paragon. Be bewildered by the gigantic 15-meter-tall Christmas tree surrounded by mind-blowing light installations, including a gift-inspired art showcase. Have your camera and cellphones at the ready and travel through the sparkling Crystal Walk made from countless fairy lights. Don't miss to visit the dazzlingly photogenic Jewels on the M floor of Siam Paragon.

Siam Center

Wander into the legendary kingdom of the elves on the ground floor of Siam Center, which has been metamorphosed into the Elf Forest and Elf Village loaded with cute little creatures. The wonderland is splashed with edgy and avant-garde feel courtesy of Argentinian-Spanish artist Felipe Pantone, who's best known for his use of bold colors and kinetic/optical art as showcased at Atrium 1 on the ground floor of Siam Center.

Siam Discovery

Enjoy the holiday spirit and save the world at the same time at Siam Discovery. The futuristic shopping destination stays true to its eco-friendly effort with the return of the Circular Living Recycled Christmas Tree, made of reused materials, for the second year. And this year it's no longer a one-way communication; visitors, apart from taking unlimited photos with the light display, are welcome to creatively decorate the tree with recyclable materials of their own.
