The Sims 4 Gallery has some amazing and creative builds just waiting to be discovered. Some old, some new but no matter what there is always something to find. This Christmas season we are diving into The Sims 4 Holiday Lots created by the talented Sims community members. Not all lots will be fully functional with everything they have but with a bit of storytelling and imagination these lots can take your stories and photos to the next level.

Christmas Markets / Shopping Streets

Christmas markets are a big thing in most parts of the world, so much so that the gallery is packed with Christmas market builds to fill your game with and use for some great storytelling and imaginative gameplay moments. Do you go explore Christmas markets wherever you are in the world? These Holiday Lots are filled with the festive spirit for your Sims to enjoy. We are definitely bookmarking these to use in our games in the future!

Christmas Shopping Alley – yukihyo6121

Lot Type: Generic
Lot Size: 30×20
Price: §370,646

Beautifully decorated, this alley is jam packed with things to do! A café to warm up on those cold and snowy Christmas days and a bakery for some delicious sweet treats. There is a florist and a gift shop for the perfect presents for your Sims this Christmas as well as a Christmas store filled with, you guessed it, all things Christmas. There is even a bar for your Sims as they head into the evening, and all of this will keep your Sims entertained and busy all day and all night this Christmas season.

Check out Yukihyo6121 on the gallery – they have so many amazing and creative builds, it was tricky to pick which build to showcase from their amazing holiday lot themed builds. But never fear, like we said it was too tricky to pick just one so we have included a special build by them later on.

Christmas Market – VinnasNook

Lot Type: Generic
Lot Size: 64×64
Price: §441,128

A traditional German village filled with some fun and practical things a village would need. From a chapel with a wedding arch for your Sims to get married, to a tattoo parlor for a little Christmas themed tattoo, to a spa after a long day in the cold, and a hotel to rest at the end of the day (or use it as residential space for your Sims to live on this lot). There is a café, and bar to quench your Sims thirst and hunger as well as a library with bookshelves and computers. There is even a graveyard (with a dug out grave ready for the next unfortunate Sims death).

The build is available with and without the Christmas market on their gallery. The addition of the Christmas market in the center of the square brings this little traditional village to life! It has a candy stall, pottery stall, selling tables for your own Sims or others to use, and a big Christmas tree in the middle. This a beautifully thought out lot with amazing details all around, beautiful and multi functional for your Sims to come visit and explore.

Price: §478,238

This Christmas village was build by Frankivalerie, UKSimmer, Antonglader, Simmergirl and Simproved and is available on the Sims 4 Gallery under Simproved’s gallery ID. This is an oldie but a goodie, a collaboration that we are glad came to be! The creativity and thought that went into this lot shines through in all the detail and different spots around the lot. There are 6 houses for your Sims to stay in (or live in should you want to stay on this lot) all cute and quaint with everything they might need… unless you have a Sims family bigger than 3!

Down all the little paths and in all the different areas are new things for your Sims to find. In one back corner there is a Christmas tree spot for your Sims to check out the possibilities for your Sims Christmas tree. In the other back corner we have a beautifully festive Santa’s grotto filled with all things Christmas décor and a special seat for Santa! There is a little gift shop filled with knick knacks to choose from, a church for Christmas services with a mini graveyard just outside.

Now this is a fun lot to stumble across! A Christmas amusement park with a lot of fun activities to keep your Sims fun up and busy for an all day and all night experience. There are plenty of things to do like play basketball – we all love a good “dream big” moment for our Sims – and just next to that are some bowling lanes for the skilled bowlers out there… if only we could have railings up for those of us who aren’t so talented with our bowling. To keep your Sims nice and warm there is a hot chocolate stand, because who doesn’t love a good, delicious hot chocolate?

Other features include a games room, some archery, a Ferris wheel from The Sims 4: High School Years and of course we couldn’t forget a community favorite – the ice skating rink! There is also a make-shift carousel right in the center of this lot which is purely for decorative purposes but so pretty to look at… more photo opportunities? And finally to remember the day for years to come there is a photo booth to take memorable pictures too!

Winterfest Wonderland – Jamesonthesims

Lot Type: National Park
Lot Size: 64×64
Price: §754,140

“The most Christmasy place you’ll ever lay your eyes upon” – this is part of the description Jamesonthesims gives for this incredibly detailed and awe-inspiring Christmas lot. From individually placed lights to create outlines of reindeer, to millions of colorful lights all over the place to bring that festive spirit – this lot has plenty to do and discover. It is catered mainly for child Sims to enjoy the magic of Christmas, with a candy cane build filled with toys and games and activity tables to another building with a puppet show booth.

But never fear, above the puppet show is a bar and dancefloor with karaoke on the side to keep our adult Sims busy too. There is even a hot tub! Along with food stalls and grills there is, of course, an ice rink which seems to be a staple for Christmas community lots and why not – as we said before, it is a perfect Winter activity. With plenty of specially decorated areas for photos including a makeshift Santa sleigh and stunning over the top objects and lit up builds, this lot is sure to bring a festive vibe to your Sims gameplay.

There are also 5 hidden baby yodas if you feel like a bit of a fun challenge!

Christmas in the Park – supertoaster82

Lot Type: Generic
Lot Size: 50×40
Price: §118,476

A Christmas park featuring an ice rink (checking it off the must have items on the list), a coffee shop which is needed to warm up on cold Winter days (and nights, another check off on the list) as well as a separate hot chocolate stall because as we have said – who doesn’t love a good hot chocolate? There is also an arts and crafts room with paper crafts and activity tables, friendship bracelet kits and just outside a jungle gym to burn off any extra energy.

A main feature we loved on this lot were the decorative Christmas displays in the one corner. These Christmas displays including the freezer bunny, a summer themed Christmas with Santa on the beach with a “sandman”, a forest scene with a little reindeer, Santa’s workshop, and lastly a Christmas tree with tons of presents all around! Great for photos this festive season! There is a café to keep your Sims fed, some chess tables to keep Sims busy and finally a giant Christmas tree to bring the whole lot together.

Christmas Tree Lots

Do you go buy the perfect Christmas tree each year? Well your Sims can go shopping for a Christmas tree too, with these fun Christmas tree lots found on the gallery.

Christmas Tree Farm – Lilsimsie

Lilsimsie has created two recent Christmas tree lots available on the gallery which are perfect for gameplay and storytelling. There are spots to relax, browse all the trees available and grab a hot chocolate

Lot Type: Small Business Venue
Lot Size: 40×30
Price: §96,162

This particular lot has a photo opportunity spot inside upstairs by a fireplace, with a giant comfy chair for Santa to sit in and a Christmas tree surrounded by presents. There are details of chopped down trees, and a truck filled with presents and a Christmas tree ready to go off to it’s new home outside. The lot also has a full kitchen and food stalls including candy, hot-to-go food and a bakery. There is even a pottery stall for some last minute gift shopping.

Christmas Lights

Christmas lights can be so beautiful to see when done right. A beautiful backdrop of sparkling colors, a glistening tree filled with tiny globes of light, fairy lights illuminating a cozy outdoor spot – lights can add so much to a space and the following lot encompasses all of these.

Christmas Lights -gold- – yukihyo6121

Lot Type: Generic
Lot Size: 30×30
Price: §177,306

Purely decorative but amazing for photos and story telling, this lot is filled with light. From fairy lights lighting up trees and bushes, to candles dotted everywhere and finally the lit Christmas tree, there is so much beauty on this lot despite there not being much to do. Imagine putting down a wedding arch for a beautiful festive ceremony – the photos would be stunning!

Great use of the TOOL mod by TwistedMexi to create pyramids of light surrounding smaller trees which are framing the bigger Christmas tree at the back center of the lot. Tiered steps lead up to the giant tree and there is a Christmas scene in the front with decorative Christmas objects and lights spelling out “Merry Christmas” as a perfect final touch.

Bonus Fun Lot

Furniture Advent Calendar – Smokoniarka

Lot Type: Residential
Lot Size: 50×50
Price: §102,803

Now for something a little different, quirky and fun! This build is an advent calendar meant to be “opened” each day leading up to Winterfest. Loaded under the hashtag #trymesyd, meant for and played out – if you want to see how it works – by Syd Mac here. It is a shell challenge of sorts with different ways to play it out. But the idea behind building a house and decorating each room with the items you get inside each day of the advent calendar is definitely something different to try and have a lot of fun with.

A thought that sticks with us is how magical that these Simmers shared these beautiful lots with the community. As much as we would love a lot of these lots to be fully functional with everything they have, unfortunately that isn’t the case but with a little imagination and a lot of make believe these lots can add a whole lot of fun to your gameplay this Christmas season! Will you be using any of these lots? And have you seen some fun, beautiful or festive Sims 4 holiday lots on the gallery? Let us know in the comments down below! Stay tuned to the Sims Community for all future Community Spotlights!
