A Unique Christmas Party: Mekong Ride with a Meaningful Impact

Christmas in Cambodia always brings its own kind of magic. Warm evenings by the river, lights reflecting off the water, and communities coming together to celebrate, connect, and give back. This year, One Big Xmas Party is bringing all of that together in one unforgettable night cruising along the Mekong.

Hosted as a celebration of Christmas and community spirit, the event raises support for Let Us Create Futures (LUCF), a Cambodian nonprofit empowering children and families through education and skills development. It’s a chance to enjoy a festive evening out while directly contributing to life-changing work on the ground.

Party with Purpose

One Big Xmas Party isn’t just another seasonal event. It blends the fun of the holidays with an opportunity to do something meaningful, and that’s what makes it stand out.

LUCF’s work focuses on long-term empowerment – helping children access education, supporting families with skills training, and breaking the cycle of poverty. Their programmes give young people the tools and confidence to build better futures, and events like this help keep that mission strong.

By buying a ticket, dressing up, and stepping aboard for the evening, guests are actively supporting a charity that delivers real impact in Cambodian communities.

Event Details

Tickets: $12.50 only
Includes:
• A welcome glass of sparkling wine

What to Expect on the Night

The atmosphere promises to be warm, lively, and full of classic Christmas cheer:

• Music & Live Performances
Seasonal tunes, entertainment, and a few surprises.

• Raffles for a Cause
Featuring high-quality prizes from across Cambodia, with all proceeds supporting LUCF’s programmes.

• LUCF Merchandise
Exclusive items including collaborative LUCF water bottles created with Made in Pain Tattoo. A meaningful gift with impact.

• Santa
Because no Christmas event is complete without the big man making an appearance.

• Best Outfit Competition
Festive, fabulous, or completely ridiculous – creativity wins.

• Full Bar Service
Wine, beer, spirits, and mixers available all evening.

And don’t forget the added value: every guest receives a free drink and mini-golf game at Backyard Mini Golf, giving you a bonus day out long after the event.

Celebrate the Solution

In a country where community support can create huge change, events like this offer a chance to contribute while having a genuinely enjoyable evening. LUCF has spent years building trust in Cambodian communities through hands-on programmes that help children gain access to education and the resources they need to thrive.

Supporting them means supporting long-term solutions, not short-term charity.

One Big Xmas Party is fun, light-hearted, festive, and social – but it also gives back in a way that truly counts. It’s the kind of event Cambodia Lifestyle loves to highlight: community-driven, purposeful, and full of good energy.
