As the year winds down and Macau slips into its festive glow, City of Dreams Macau unveils Splendor of A Festive Dream, a winter spectacle that brings art, light and holiday theatre to every corner of the integrated resort. Until January 4, 2026 the property becomes a seasonal playground filled with immersive décor, imaginative installations and experiences designed to spark wonder.

Winter Artistry Takes the Spotlight

City of Dreams launches its holiday season with a series of revamped outdoor art pieces that turn its grounds into a glittering Christmas dreamscape. The South Gate Entrance steals the scene with a newly revealed realm of oversized ornaments and whimsical characters. A towering 13 metre golden reindeer rotates gently like a giant musical figurine while playful Dancing Note Elves animate the garden with mischievous charm. After sunset a pink gold Christmas tree glows against the night sky accompanied by three metre reindeer figures and a field of starry lights. Daily Bubble Show performances sweep through the area creating a lively fairytale world of floating bubbles and music. Santa also makes spontaneous visits offering warm greetings and surprise treats. Visitors can pick up exclusive postcards here and send them directly from the resort with complimentary mailing.

The Cotai Strip Entrance presents its own take on modern festive glamour. A reflective glass backdrop frames a 10 metre pink gold tree and sculptural reindeer pieces blending contemporary lines with holiday fantasy. Additional Bubble Show performances unfold here throughout the afternoon and evening. Nearby the Southeast Entrance debuts a luminous corridor shaped by LED pillars that shimmer like cascades of falling stars.

Indoors the resort continues its festive transformation. A striking 15 metre wide installation welcomes guests at the main entrance where a futuristic pink gold Christmas tree rises nine metres high alongside golden reindeer. Dancing Note Elves roam the scene as if stepping out of a storybook into a world of sleek architecture. Across the retail district and hotel passages more pink gold installations appear creating a trail of surprises for visitors wandering through the property.
