Entertainment City, Philippines—Okada Manila, Asia’s largest ultra-luxury integrated resort, held its grand tree lighting event last November 22 at the property’s iconic Pearl Lobby. Themed “Sparkles of Hope,” the integrated resort’s property-wide Christmas celebration aims to inspire hope, goodwill, and optimism despite these challenging times.
Envisioned to be a source of hope and light in these unprecedented times, Okada Manila’s holiday centerpiece, a 30-foot Christmas tree, is made of chiffon fabric, assorted gold and copper ornaments, a variety of mirror balls with crystal beads, and silver glittered palm leaves. It has over 22,500 LED baubles.
The tree lighting ceremony was led by Okada Manila Senior Vice President for Hotel Operations Ivaylo Ivanov. It was followed by world-class performances by the Okada Manila Entertainment Group and the country’s one and only Fearless Diva, Jona, who serenaded viewers at Cove Manila. The event was live streamed via Facebook.
During her set, the songstress shared some words of encouragement with her fans and viewers. “So many families were affected [by this pandemic and other calamities]. They are all heavily hit by that. Despite it all, let us find hope, unity, and faith that everything will come to pass really soon. And let us still find these positive things that we still have.”
In addition to the tree lighting event, Okada Manila officially kicked off its property-wide holiday celebration with amazing deals for the entire family, so everyone can get into the holiday spirit!
