Welcome to Phnom Penh’s first regional pop-up party: your invitation to Christmas @ Raintree
Noël, Weinachten, Navidad, Yedànjié, ណូអែល… Let’s face it, Christmas is not a huge holiday in Cambodia. Nevertheless the global festive season is upon us, and at Raintree we love any excuse to party. So in the spirit of Christmas, we’re celebrating in style with you, our community, as part of our mission to be so much more than just a workspace.
For the first time since opening, we’re inviting everyone up to the Raintree rooftop for some Cambodian Christmas cheer. We’ll be transforming the Canopy and the Crown into a festival filled with food, pop-up stalls, music and laughter. To whet your appetites ahead of the event, take a look below at some of the hand-picked Khmer products and entrepreneurs as well as a few of Raintree’s favourite friends from across the region that will be featuring in our pop-up market. More to be announced in the run up to December…
Come eat, drink, shop and be merry!

Dorsu - creating clothing for people who work hard, travel often, and experience life, is the Dorsu way. Presenting a versatile range of cotton basics in limited runs, this brand challenges the conventional approach of today’s fashion industry, all from the heart of their studio in Kampot.
Frankitas - with the discerning eye of creative director Franki Turner, Frankitas presents an ethnic-chic line of bags, clutches and furnishings. Based in her Kuala Lumpur gallery, she uses stunning fabrics sourced all over the region from Indonesia to Uzbekistan.
Repleat - an independent bag label from Kuala Lumpur, Repleat is an aesthetic marriage between the vibes of the tropics and the energy of the city. With artistic influences from Japanese origami to Moorish architecture, their designs are unique and exclusively available at Raintree this Christmas.
Mantraband - in today’s crazy world, everyone could use more positive messages in their lives. Mantraband’s line of bangles come in three beautiful metal finishes that allow us to ‘wear our inspiration’. Come and choose your very own mantra.
Little bit of Grace - if you’re a stationery addict like us, Grace Chung has the answer. Her original line of beautifully designed stationery is all printed in Cambodia, and you’ll find plenty of Christmas special editions at the event.
Penh Lenh - out of their studio in Toul Tem Poung, Penh Lenh creates beautiful hand-crafted accessories from their artisan team led by co-founder Rachel Dodson. Their bold and colourful pieces use the highest quality materials, and you can shop with a clear conscience as they are committed to producing 100% ethically-sourced, responsibly-made goods.
Un été à Kep-sur-mer - when French style meets Khmer soul, beautiful tailored ready-to-wear is the result. This new label founded just earlier this year by two stylish sisters Boramy and Neary, presents a collection of contemporary pieces with a feminine edge.
Living IChing Decor - for interior styling ideas this season, look no further than IChing’s selection of exquisite glassware, ceramics and accessories for the best of classy, chic living in Phnom Penh.
Gardenia - as a big fan of interior landscaping, we love Gardenia’s indoor planting designs for any space, big or small, brought to you by a brand new young Khmer team with some very green fingers.
Amboh - did someone say Cambodian summer? Amboh’s espadrilles handmade in Cambodia, come in a range of contemporary and Khmer fabrics, perfect for your next vacation (or just all year long).
Vintage Interior - well-known for their contemporary lighting and furniture, Vintage Interior will be bringing you something slightly different to Raintree… from candlesticks to nutcrackers, you’ll find some interesting throwback accessories for the unique and eccentric home this season.
