Time for a party
MANILA, Philippines - C3 Events Place in Greenhills, San Juan chugged down some fun school spirit recently with an event called “Admit Three” — C3’s take on the nostalgic school fair, the annual event described by many as one of the best events in their student life. From decorations to activities, the event gave kids a chance to feel the thrill of a fair, and also took parents back to the time of their own campus activity.
Admit Three is actually a chance for kids and parents to learn about C3’s newest kiddie party packages. Birthday parties are sure to become a hit with C3’s newest offering: C3 food stations. Each food station is a creative recreation of the beloved food carts found at most school fairs.
First is the pizza station where kids can fill themselves up with C3’s own cheesy goodness. Then a posh pasta station is also on hand for spaghetti lovers and carbonara buffs. There’s also the classic favorite ice cream cart for a cool time at the fair. A stadium-inspired food station serving burgers, fries and hotdogs will also be a big hit among boys with big appetites. Of course, not to be missed is the dessert cart with classic chocolates and candies — a treat for people with a sweet tooth!
“The new food stations is C3’s way of helping parents organize their kids’ birthday parties better. We noticed that food carts such as cotton candies and ice cream stations are a favorite among parties, and that parents often have a hard time looking for carts to rent. With the C3 food stations, ideas like these become easier because we can provide these treats for them,” said Badjie Guerrero-Trinidad, general manager of C3 Events Place.
The streamlined and elegant main venue — Hall Missouri — was transformed into an instant rave house of school colors. Balloons, streamers and confetti in various hues bedecked every nook and cranny and pepped up C3’s kiddie festival. To get into the spirit of the festivities, kids donned their best school outfits — cheerleading uniforms, varsity jerseys, soccer shirts and other sports uniform.
Aside from the school fair theme, event decorator Dazzling Celebrations also incorporated a carnival theme into its décor for a more festive atmosphere.
Lots of fun and games with song and dance numbers from the event hosts, prizes and giveaways added to the fun.
C3 — which stands for “create, celebrate, captivate” — is a multi-functional events place that can accommodate simple to very grand occasions.
“At C3, we can accommodate a costume party, where kids will dress as their favorite cartoon character or a zoo party that features safari-inspired games. Parents are given the freedom to ‘create’ the theme that they want for their kid’s party — whether it’s lifted from a storybook or film or inspired by nature and the outdoors,” said Badjie.
The modern, indoor venue can accommodate as many as 350 guests, banquet-style, and can be transformed according to a customer’s specification.
There are three spaces for guests to choose from — the Hall Missouri, the main venue, which seats up to 180 guests; plus two enclosed rooms for more intimate events of 40 to 50 guests. The foyer and veranda can also be occupied for larger events. Special arrangements can be made to hold a party inside the C3 Restaurant.
Aside from the venue and décor, C3 packages also include whole-day management service wherein a C3 staff person can assist in registration and guest management during your occasion.
It’s also open for corporate events such as product launches, seminars and team building activities. Basic audio-visual equipment such as LCD projectors, monitors and sound systems can be rented at C3.
C3 Events Place is located at the heart of Greenhills commercial complex in San Juan Metro Manila, 18 Missouri St., North Greenhills San Juan, Metro Manila. For inquiries, call 726-2712 or e-mail c3.eventsplace@yahoo.com.
