Running from 1 November 2024 to 16 February 2025, this year’s festivities promise an unforgettable experience for travelers and visitors alike.

A Festive Wonderland in Terminal 3

Greeting visitors in Terminal 3 Departure Hall, an 8-meter-tall Hello Kitty topiary stands as the centerpiece of the Hello Kitty Festive Wonderland.
