Have yourself a sparkling Christmas at SM Mall of Asia

It was a night of bright lights, music and sharing as the SM Mall of Asia recently welcomed the holidays with an amazing performance by the UST Choir accompanied by the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra, the lighting of the 60-foot giant Christmas tree and a gift-giving activity for kids.

The University of Santo Tomas Singers, who was recently named the Choir of the World Champion during the Llangollen International Eisteddfod in Wales, United Kingdom, serenaded the audience with their own renditions of Christmas classic songs like Hark the Herald Angels Sing, Jingle Bells, Rockin Around the Christmas Tree and Kumukutikutitap. The choir was accompanied by the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra, one of the leading orchestras in the country with over a decade of well-applauded live performances, records, tours and innovative programs of bringing the orchestra closer to the communities.

The event was highlighted by a tree-lighting ceremony of the 60-foot-high Christmas tree designed with over 120,000 LED lights and red Christmas balls in different sizes. The cute MOA Magical Friends, the newest addition to the family, also joined in the festivities.

During the event, SM also launched its Christmas Bears of Joy for the benefit of its chosen beneficiary, Bahay Tuluyan. Every P200 purchase at any SM branch entitles one to a pair of SM Bears of Joy, while another bear goes to the foundation.

The festivities continue with the first state-of-the-art Indoor Music and Lights Show, which is ongoing until Dec. 3.

Enjoy the brightest and sparkling Christmas at SM Mall of Asia, dahlings.
