As it always does during the holiday season, SM City Baguio has opened its Christmas centerpiece to the public on Oct. 24 featuring the spirit of giving and generosity.
The centerpiece, now entertaining families and mallgoers at the Atrium, features a stunning 35-foot Christmas tree “that shines with the warmth and wonder of the season.”
Made with sparkling red and gold ornaments, twinkling lights, and crowned with a brilliant golden star, the tree stands as a radiant symbol of joy, surrounded with elegant arches wrapped in lush greenery and vibrant red ribbons, adorned with giant bows, golden baubles, and beautifully wrapped gift boxes.
Set against a rich red and gold holiday palette, the festive display captures the true spirit of Christmas, a celebration of love, generosity, and togetherness for families and friends to enjoy at the mall.
It will be on display until Jan. 6, 2026.
SM City Baguio Mall Manager John Philip Baysac also welcomes everyone to the Christmas Festivities at SM, which he describes as a celebration of family togetherness, meaningful connections, and the joy shared with friends and loved ones this holiday season.
Aside from its annual tree lighting ceremony, other holiday activities prepared by SM are the Holiday Santa Run, Grand Magical Parade, Holiday Paws Party, Holiday Snowflakes Surprises, World Chorale Day, Happiest Holiday Weekends packed with carols, fun activities, and festive moments for the whole family and friends.
“Through the Christmas Festivities at SM, we hope to strengthen the ties that bind us to our loved ones. Like the ribbons wrapped in our holiday décors, it’s a symbol of family, connection, and shared joy, Baysac said.
