We’ve found your one-stop-festive-spot to keep the magic alive for the kids this Christmas

If Commercial Bay’s extensive retail and food offering didn’t already make it your go-to in the lead-up to Christmas, its charming new Magic Mail system will. Starting at a screen in Commercial Bay’s central atrium, visitors are invited to deposit their Santa wishlists, which are transported via some digital ‘magic’ (and old pipes) up to the level three mezzanine and then on to the big man himself. 

Other highlights this festive season include a family photo booth, Christmas wrapping, late-night shopping from 14th of December until the 23rd of December, a Santa sleigh and more. 

Commercial Bay is also sure to be the site of many-a Christmas function thanks to its offering of eateries to suit any inclination. From Ahi to Saxon + Parole, Gochu, The Lodge Bar, Ghost Donkey, The Poni Room and more, the downtown precinct is conveniently located for hosting a ‘do, whether it be revelrous or sophisticated.

So, with myriad offerings to make sure you celebrate Christmas in style and whimsy, Commercial Bay has all the activities, food and retail options the kids will love — and you will too.
