KOTA KINABALU — The spirit of Christmas will take centre stage in the city as Urban Tamu Christmas Edition returns this weekend, offering a warm and welcoming festive market experience for families and friends.

The two-day event will be held on Saturday and Sunday, December 13 and 14, from 11am to 7pm at The Walk, Riverson, transforming the popular venue into a cozy holiday hub filled with food, music and local creativity.

Known as a friendly artisan market, Urban Tamu brings together local food vendors, makers, artists and musicians in a relaxed, neighbourhood-style setting. Visitors can expect a laid-back atmosphere where browsing stalls, meeting new people and lingering over good food are all part of the experience.

For its Christmas edition, the market promises a festive twist, encouraging visitors to “jalan-jalan, makan-makan” while soaking in the holiday mood. The event will feature a variety of food and beverage offerings, handmade merchandise, and live music, creating a lively yet family-friendly environment.

Organisers highlighted that the event is not just about celebration, but also about supporting the local community. Every purchase and interaction helps small businesses and independent creators grow, especially as the year draws to a close.

With its emphasis on sharing joy, celebrating local talent and spreading kindness, the Urban Tamu Christmas Edition aims to provide a meaningful way for the community to come together before the year ends.

Members of the public are invited to drop by, support local vendors and enjoy a festive weekend filled with good vibes and Christmas cheer.
