It’s a bright
and scintillating Christmas at the Circuit Makati, home of the city’s immersive
and awe-inspiring Christmas tree.
Blazing against
the night sky with an explosion of lights, the 56-foot, interactive Christmas
tree redefines the Makati skyline as it welcomes everyone to Circuit Makati,
the lifestyle and entertainment destination for those who want the best that
the holidays can offer.

| A HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS. Children enthusiastically flocked the Circuit Makati Bazaar 2016 for the chance to pose with Santa Claus. |
In partnership
with Mastercard and Alveo, last November 18, this magnificent masterpiece made
purely of 250,000 sparkling lights brought light to the biggest, hippest,
Circuit Makati Bazaar 2016. Around the tree, 2,500 strands, each with 100
lights, plus 150 sets of meteor lights, create a magical spectacle that
showcases the grandeur of Christmas.
From sun up to
sun down, the thousands who flocked the 3-day bazaar, co-presented by
Mastercard and HSBC, for its six
Christmas villages-- Star Avenue featuring gift finds from top local
celebrities, Mommy’s Best by Project Mom (headed by Amanda Griffin and Bianca
Araneta-Elizalde), Lil’ Preneur by HedCen, Millenial Spot (with merchants from
Karl Edwards and Kaizen Events Inc.), Fit & Fab by Hunt and Gather, and
Mercato Centrale, not only shopped their
heart’s delight, but also witnessed the breathtaking Christmas tree.
In addition, guests were serenaded with Christmas carols from The Voice
Kids and the students of HedCen, coupled with dance and other acoustic
performances. Exciting activities such as the photography workshop by Canon and
Nikon, a Zumba party, and a raffle with prizes from Oppo, Power Mac Center
Spotlight, SandBox Alviera, Nuvali CampN, and Mystery Manila delighted everyone
who went to enjoy the Christmas rush.
Giving a new
dimension to Christmas trees, the giant Circuit Makati tree can be accessed
from inside and out giving a more immersive experience for all. Come inside and
marvel at the sight of countless moving lights, many of which have been
recycled from the previous years with the aim of staying environmentally
friendly. To bring more life to the Christmas tree, it has been jazzed up
with more color to evoke a youthful and vibrant vibe, and sprinkled it with
circular patterns inspired the Globe Circuit logo. The result is simply
spectacular.
“This year, we
wanted to curate another magnificent display with a modern and interactive
Christmas tree that’s sure to entice our visitors,” said Shiella Aguilar, in
keeping with Ayala Land’s efforts to bring bright lights to various estates
across the country, transforming its developments into a Christmas wonderland
where people can come together and feel the magic of the season.
The
Circuit Makati Christmas tree will continue to bring joy until January 8,
2017. Indeed, bright lights are bringing
Christmas cheer to the ever-bustling city. As if this were not enough,
Ayala Land has upped the ante as it lined up exciting fun-filled activities and
great entertainment for every member of the family this season.
