Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru Has An Elf Village, Snowfall Seshs & Craft Workshops For A White Christmas

Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru’s Christmas decor


Chilly temperatures and snow are typical signs that Christmas is around the corner in countries that have 4 seasons. But for us Malaysians, the next best thing we have to Hallmark-movie Christmases is air-conditioned shopping malls with their festive holiday decor and speakers blasting cheery holiday tunes.

If you’re in Johor Bahru this year end, drop by Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru. They’ll be having a magical elf-themed Christmas event this year, and there’ll be snowfall sessions where you can experience a white Christmas right here in tropical Malaysia. 

Here’s more on what you can expect, from now till 26th December 2022.

It’ll be hard to miss the shimmering Christmas trees that take centre stage at Paradigm Mall JB’s ground floor. These structures stretch nearly 3-storeys high and look just like origami trees. They’re part of the mall’s pop-up book-inspired Elf Village, set up for this year’s holiday season.

Look closely, and you’ll notice little ‘elves’ descending down the ladders on the trees to deliver presents.

The festive decorations are already Instagram-worthy on their own. But to make things extra exciting for visitors of all ages, the mall is having several snowfall sessions at their Elf Village. Flakes of white ‘snow’ shower down on the event area, letting Malaysians experience ‘snowfall’ in our tropical country.

Catch the snowfall event on Thursdays to Sundays from 8th till 25th December 2022, as well as on 26th December, Monday. There are three sessions per day – at 3pm, 5pm and 8pm.

As shopping makes up a big part of Christmas, there’s also a Christmas Market at the Elf Village with 20 participating vendors. Browse through a variety of giftables from Box Hunt’s blind boxes with adorable figurines, to Popular Bookstore’s book box sets.
