MITSUKOSHI BGC Brings the Spirit of Japanese Heritage this Holiday Season
MITSUKOSHI BGC is delighted to introduce a series of festive events this Christmas season that celebrate the joy of giving, sharing, and togetherness. Embracing the Japanese concept of “Okurimono,” meaning “Gift,” MITSUKOSHI BGC aims to offer an immersive experience that connects Filipino families to the warmth of Japanese culture while bringing a fresh and unique holiday celebration for all.
Located within The Seasons Residences, a premium development by Federal Land, Inc. and its Japanese partners Nomura Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. and Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings Ltd., MITSUKOSHI BGC offers an unparalleled Japanese-inspired lifestyle. Residents of The Seasons Residences enjoy direct access to MITSUKOSHI BGCโs curated retail and dining options, creating a seamless blend of world-class living and cultural experiences.
This Christmas season, MITSUKOSHI BGC invites everyone to unwrap the most wonderful gift it has to offer: a cultural journey full of style, tradition, and meaningful experiences. With three central gifting themesโThe Gift of Celebration, The Gift of Sharing, and The Gift of Entertainmentโthere’s something special for everyone to enjoy.
Kokeshi Doll’s Holiday Debut
MITSUKOSHI BGCโs holiday magic begins with the unveiling of Mitsuko, the chic and playful Kokeshi doll. Mitsuko welcomes guests to a world of Japanese charm and hospitality. A vibrant character who loves shopping, karaoke, and, of course, delicious food, Mitsuko embodies the playful spirit of Christmas and Japanese culture.
This year, the special Kokeshi Doll Mitsuko installation, with a magical snow effect, will bring the Christmas spirit of Japan to Metro Manila. Guests are invited to meet Mitsuko, snap a selfie, and share it on Instagram with the hashtags #MITSUKOSHIBGC and #MITSUKO to receive a FREE Key Coffee voucherโavailable for the first 200 customers who post! This promotion runs from November 20 to 30, 2024.
In addition to the holiday festivities, MITSUKOSHI BGC proudly displays its iconic Lion Statue, a symbol of prosperity and good fortune that has graced the entrance of MITSUKOSHI’s Nihombashi store since 1914. For the first time ever, this beloved statue has crossed the sea to the Philippines, offering visitors a chance to experience the spirit of Omotenashiโthe Japanese art of hospitality. The statue will welcome guests to create new memories with loved ones during this holiday.
A Feast for the Holidays: Dining and Gift-Giving Delights
The holiday season is also a time to gather around the table, and MITSUKOSHI BGC has curated a selection of festive dining options with extended dining hours for customers to enjoy: Monday to Thursday 11AM to 10PM, Friday 11AM to 11PM, and Saturday, Sunday, and holidays 10AM to 11PM. Guests are invited to enjoy delectable dishes from the diverse range of restaurants housed within MITSUKOSHI, with incredible promotions that make celebrating the holidays with family and friends even more special.

A Cultural Christmas Celebration
MITSUKOSHI BGC Christmas features a visual that aligns with the Isetan Mitsukoshi Christmas campaign created by Akira Minagawa. This global campaign features an array of unique characters with individuality, creating a fresh impression of Japanese Christmas. Alongside this, it will also showcase a wonderful blend of Japanese, Western, and Filipino Christmas traditions with a series of live entertainment and kid-friendly events.
From December 20 to 22, 2024, children ages 5-11 are invited to participate in a Christmas Kids Event featuring sing-alongs, Christmas workshops, mini-games, and the chance to collect sweet treats from participating MITSUKOSHI tenants. The event promises to be a magical experience for the whole family. Registration is open for those who make a minimum purchase of P2,000.
In addition, the Live Music Performances and Santa Meet & Greet from December 23 to 25 will bring festive cheer to visitors with classic Japanese Christmas songs, live performances, and the chance to meet Santa Claus himself.
