If you plan on shopping for Christmas gifts soon, we highly recommend doing so at Southwoods Mall. Why? Because just by shopping, you will also get a chance to win a brand new car at the same time!

We learned this when we ushered in the Christmas season at Southwoods Mall on November 14. The event filled the mall with music, color, and cheer, highlighted by a dazzling tree lighting ceremony that marked the beginning of a truly magical season for the community. Even kids passing by in the mall asked their families to stop so they could enjoy the festivities together.
The Christmas tree lighting ceremony was led by Megaworld Lifestyle Malls Vice President for Strategic Support Rene Arnobit, Dealer Principal and General Manager of Pure Motion Inc.-BYD Carmona Francis Gonzales, Cluster General Manager Vanessa Vicente, and Southwoods Mall General Manager Francis Ballesteros.

The evening also featured a heartwarming performance by the Himig Sanghaya Chorale, an award-winning choir from San Pedro, Laguna, whose soulful renditions of classic Christmas carols (and a pleasant surprise of “Be Our Guest” from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast!) brought warmth and nostalgia to the night.
