The City of Firsts has officially signaled the beginning of its holiday celebration with the lighting of its iconic Giant Christmas Tree last November 11.
Decked with dazzling lights, colorful ornaments, and glittering tinsels, the Giant Christmas Tree situated at the Times Square Food Park in Araneta City was lit up in a grand celebration attended by local government officials, senior company executives, celebrities, and patrons with the theme 'Believe in the Magic of Christmas'.
"We made sure to light up our Giant Christmas Tree in time for 11.11, which tradition says is a special date when anything you wish for can come true. It's also our way of welcoming the return of our guests to the City of Firsts now that quarantine restrictions are starting to loosen up a bit. Even though we're now welcoming guests of all ages, we're still making it a point that all of our customers are safe through the health and safety measures that we've put in place," Marjorie Go, AVP for Marketing of Araneta Group, said.
This year's event highlights a mix of virtual and online celebrity performances and performances, with strict health and safety measures implemented onsite. 
A pre-show was also held virtually hosted by DJ Onse, and several lucky viewers got to take home some exciting prizes from the virtual games.
