QUEZON CITY — The holiday season officially began at SM City Sta. Mesa with the launch of “Moments of Wonder: A Timeless Christmas Journey,” a festive celebration that brought together dazzling displays, spectacular performances, and a heartwarming message of joy and giving.
The event opened with a breathtaking performance by IOX Entertainment, whose stunning aerial human mirror ball act left the audience spellbound — a shimmering, gravity-defying spectacle that perfectly set the tone for an evening of wonder.
Quezon City District 4 Councilor Atty. Vincent Belmonte graced the occasion, bringing warm holiday greetings on behalf of the city. Adding star-studded charm to the celebration were beloved screen favorites Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes, while P-pop rising star Marcus delighted the crowd with a special musical performance.
The event was made even more meaningful by the presence of the children from the Down Syndrome Association of the Philippines, who were welcomed as special guests of honor. Their smiles and participation embodied the true spirit of the season — inclusion, warmth, and shared joy.
Representing SM Supermalls were John Brian Tarnate, Senior Assistant Vice President for Mall Operations; Alan Timothy Jarantilla, Regional Operations Manager; and Mary Joy Arsenio, Mall Manager of SM City Sta. Mesa.
“Moments of Wonder” will run throughout the holiday season, inviting visitors to experience the magic of Christmas through enchanting installations, community-focused activities, and opportunities to create lasting memories with loved ones.
