Enchanted Kingdom’s ‘Enchanted Christmas Story’ to bring yuletide cheer, magic

Enchanted Kingdom, the first and only world-class theme park in the Philippines, brightens the holidays with "An Enchanted Christmas Story" starting with the Christmas Tree Lighting and launch of EK's Giant Parol on 26 November, Sunday.

EK tapped renowned lantern-maker from Pampanga Eric Bondoc Quiwa to create the 22-foot parol to be installed at the Agila Grounds. This will be the centerpiece of the theme park's holiday events, along with 100 other parol around the park. Quiwa is set to create the biggest parol thus far in the country.

Additionally, EK and Firefly Lighting celebrates moments with the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at the Spaceport.

According to EK president and Chairman Mario Mamon, EK is committed to showcasing the Filipino Christmas tradition of parol and local decorations to bring nostalgia during the holiday season.

"It is no doubt that Christmas is the most festive and magical time of the year in the Philippines. As a proud Filipino company, EK is the ideal place where Filipino families can create more magical experiences and reminisce about their most enchanted Christmas stories," said Mamon.

EK is also set to showcase its homegrown talents through Christmas shows such as the plays "Christmas At The Kingdom (EK Story)" and "Brooklyn Diaries: Oh Paskong Maligaya (OPM).|

The Eldar's Christmas Parade will feature Eldar the Wizard and the Royal Family with the storybook characters as they dance and prance around Enchanted Kingdom to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year. EK's very own vocal groups Victoria's Way and The Kingsmen, together with P-pop girl group SMS, will serenade guests with Christmas songs at EK's bandstand.
