Holidays are getting more and more exciting! A bevy of stars aglow at the mall atrium of SM City Masinag as they light up the holiday centerpiece called Christmas Starlights.
Towering at 40 feet high, the giant Christmas tree in the middle of the atrium glistens with twinkling lights and sparkling ornaments. A star tunnel stands tall and bright to welcome everyone to take photos at the centerpiece. Clusters of gold and red stars hang high at the mall, shining with a warm holiday glow and casting a magical atmosphere throughout the atrium. The scene captures the spirit of the season, beckoning visitors to share in the joy and create cherished memories.
Leading the grand lighting ceremony of the Christmas Starlights centerpiece are Rizal Vice Governor Reynaldo San Juan, Jr., Antipolo Vice Mayor Josefina Gatlabayan and Councilor Enrico De Guzman. They are joined by SM Supermalls Assistant Vice President for Marketing Jay Aranas, Regional Operations Manager Don Edward Vijandre, and SM City Masinag Assistant Mall Manager Sean Arroyo. Madison Events takes the stage with a thrilling Christmas musical performance, bringing smiles to both kids and those with youthful spirits in the audience. Santa Claus, the beloved symbol of the season, also graces the celebration, sharing positive energy and spreading joy through gifts for the little ones.

It is that time of the year again when everyone gathers at SM City Masinag to light up the annual giant Christmas display at the mall atrium.
Aptly called Merry and Bright Christmas, SM City Masinag illuminates the entire mall highlighting an amazing Christmas centerpiece that features a towering 20-feet royal gazebo and an abundantly adorned Christmas Tree on top of it. The centerpiece greenery is decked out with poinsettias, Christmas trees and fluttery park lights that complete a beautiful indoor garden scenery. I and my mom took the opportunity to take our photos in the wonderful display.
The launch highlights a ceremonial lighting ceremony with local officials led Antipolo City Councilor Susan Say and Bgy. Mayamot Kagawad Arvie Reyes-Regino. They are joined by SM Supermalls Senior AVP Johanna Rupisan, Regional Operations Manager Chris Martin Coquia, SM City Masinag Mall Manager April Duques Bulanon and Assistant Mall Manager Sean Arroyo. The talented performers from Madison Events entertain guests with a Christmas musical.
“To see families and friends gather round our annual Christmas centerpiece makes us beam with happiness as we know we become part of their Holiday memories when they take pictures at our mall displays. We are thankful that we get to do this again for our shoppers especially after the limiting years we endure because of the pandemic. We hope that our offerings and attractions here at the mall make their Holidays this year more meaningful,” says April Duques Bulanon, Mall Manager of SM City Masinag.
Starting October 29, 2022, SM City Masinag is again launching the Bears of Joy, an annual charity program of SM Supermalls wherein shoppers can also participate by buying a pair of Christmas Teddy Bears for P250 from the Bears of Joy booth. One of the two bears will be donated to a selected charity, while the donor can take the other one home. SM City Masinag will give the accumulated donated bears to a chosen charity.
