The construction of Xiong'an New Area is crucial for generations and a national affair of China. Under the concept of ecological priority and green development, exploring the associations between ecosystem services is of vital significance for optimizing territory development plan and realizing the sustainable management of natural resources. In this study, four ecosystem services were quantified based on multi-sources data. The associations among ecosystem services were analyzed by using correlation analysis and ecosystem service bundles were identified by applying the self-organizing feature map, in the expectation of providing a scientific basis for balancing the planning and construction of Xiong'an New Area. The results showed that the supply of biodiversity protection service presented an increasing trend from the northeast to the southwest; the delivery of food production service was higher in Anxin county and Rongcheng county than that of Xiongxian county; the higher provision of water yield service mainly occurred in the southwest, while the lower provision of water yield service occurred primarily in the northeast; the recreation service supply was higher in the north-central part of Xiong'an New Area and lower in the southeast. Most of the associations among ecosystem services are synergistic and have less trade-offs. Four ecosystem service bundles were mapped with different main land use classes and supplies of ecosystem services. The food production bundle was predominantly covered by the dry lands and had the highest supply of food production service. The cultural entertainment bundle also primarily contained dry lands and dominated in providing recreation service. The ecological conservation bundle mainly consisted of water bodies, dry lands and forests, which had the highest delivery of biodiversity protection service. The urban life bundle was associated with urban areas and some paddy lands and showed a high provision of water yield service. On the basis of the characteristics of different ecosystem services supplies bundles, the suggestions were put forward for rationally determining the timing and location of changing land use types and promoting the sustainable provision of multiple ecosystem services in Xiong'an New Area.
