Spirit of community alive in Lifemalls

Lifemalls brings back the joy of Christmas in the malls by Filinvest — Festival Mall Alabang, Main Square Bacoor, Fora Mall Tagaytay, and IL Corso Cebu.

At the lighting of the Christmas Tree in Festival Mall last 4 November, Filinvest Land, Inc. director Francis Gotianun said, "Today, as we light this giant tree, we promise to keep the essence of Filipino festivals and the spirit of community alive in our malls. This year, let us all bring back grand celebrations together with our families and friends."

Christmas is not complete without bright, colorful lights and vitalizing holiday music. Not to be missed is Rhythm and Lights in Festival Mall, a series of musical entertainment shows with various artists performing weekly (26 November, Silent Sanctuary; 10 December, Michael Pangilinan) followed by Festival Mall's first-ever fireworks show. Sing along and enjoy the display of sparkling lights when you watch from the picturesque Water Garden.

Revenge shopping just got more exciting with Shop and Win: The 12 Gifts of Christmas Raffle Promo. This is the biggest Christmas raffle of Festival Mall, Main Square, and Fora Mall.

Festival Mall also highlights the completion and opening of Our Lady of Lourdes Chapel located at the Civic Drive, Filinvest City, Alabang, Muntinlupa City. Masses will be held every Saturday at 5 p.m. and Sunday at 10 a.m. starting November, with Simbang Gabi schedules from 16 to 24 December at 7:30 p.m., a perfect way to end the year and share in the light and joy that Christmas brings.

Families can also spend magical afternoons at Lifemalls and get a chance to join fun games, exciting surprises, and a grand mascot showdown at The Grand Christmas Fest. It wouldn't be a Christmas party without Santa and other Christmas staples like the Nutcracker. Bring the kids (and kids at heart) to meet Santa and have a photo with him.

On its second year, Lifemalls by Filinvest continue to express their gratitude and share their blessings to their partner foundations Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines, Inc. and Hemophilia Advocates Philippines. Lifemalls has been their second home, by providing them with a safe and secure malling experience as they create awareness for their organizations.
