The holiday spirit shines brightly at Glorietta as it officially welcomed the season with its much-awaited Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony, treating shoppers and guests to an evening of lights, music, and memorable moments.
With the theme “That Holiday Feeling,” Glorietta’s Activity Center was transformed into a festive space highlighted by a projection mapping show that led up to the reveal of Metro Manila’s tallest indoor Christmas tree — a 66-foot centerpiece symbolizing joy, unity, and the Filipino tradition of celebrating Christmas with loved ones.
“The Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony has always been a cherished tradition for us,” said Mae Dichupa, Ayala Malls’ Head of Marketing. “This year, with the unveiling of the tallest indoor Christmas tree in the metro and an exciting lineup of activities across our malls, we wanted to bring everyone that sense of wonder and togetherness that makes Christmas truly special at Ayala Malls.”
