Turn Scrooges into Tiny Tims with Holiday Parties worth Celebrating

  The holiday season brings out two kinds of people; there’s the type that gets all giddy as soon as Starbucks bring out their red Christmas cups, and there’s the type that resents every hint of tinsel and longs for the start of January. Nevertheless, the holidays are a time for celebration and enjoyment, no matter what your take on the season. This year we’ve compiled a list of Hong Kong’s Top Five Festive Parties, a selection so fantastic it’s sure to see Scrooges have a change of heart. So stick on your best festive sweater, re-learn the words to Live Aid and simply have a wonderful Christmas time!
