It’s a different Christmas in Hong Kong (and everywhere!) this year, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be a very merry one! Plenty of places around town are celebrating the season with trees, decorations, virtual Santa visits and more.

Every half hour, a five-minute show will play to a backdrop of Christmas songs. You can also use IFC’s Very Merry Instagram Filters to create an Augmented Reality Christmas on your smartphone, then share it with friends and family on socials.
