May your BER Months Be Merry and Bright with Greenfield District’s Christmas Activities
Twelve days
of Christmas are no doubt too short for Filipinos. In the Philippines,
Christmas festivities begin in September. The BER months (September, October, November, and December) make up a long, jolly
season of reunions, Christmas parties, gift shopping, Christmas traditions, and
family bonding. It’s the most wonderful time of the year when families and
friends gather to enjoy various recreational activities while cherishing each
other’s company.
This
holiday season, Greenfield
Development Corporation (GDC) invites Filipinos to experience the joy of the
BER months at the Greenfield District in Mandaluyong. Known for its green open spaces, pedestrian-oriented
neighbourhood, and fun outdoor
activities, Greenfield District is an ideal destination for holiday
bonding. Accessible to the public through various routes and roadways from the
main business districts of Metro Manila, this bustling community’s advantageous
location makes it a convenient venue for a food trip with friends, reunion with
relatives, holiday dinner with workmates, or holiday gift shopping.
To fill
your BER months with holiday cheers, GDC has temporarily turned its 15-hectare future-ready urban
development into a holiday wonderland.
Here are the things you can enjoy at the Greenfield District with your
loved ones this long Christmas season.
Get into the Holiday spirit with the family
From
grandparents to kids, the Christmas season is indeed a celebration for all
ages. Bring the whole family to a night
of holiday festivities as Greenfield District celebrates A Christmas for
Generations on October 19, 2022. The
highlight of the event is the Giant Christmas Tree Lighting, which will start
at 5 PM. Take a selfie at the foot of the Giant Christmas Tree and take lots of
social media-worthy photos of other Christmas decorations within the District.
Listen to Christmas carols sung by a chorale. Enjoy early Christmas shopping at
the bazaars. Get to meet Santa Claus and
receive some exciting giveaways.
Another
great bonding idea for the whole family this holiday season is the Family Day
organized by the Rotary Club of Greenfield District. The event will be held on November 26 at the
Central Park. As part of its fundraising and public service programs, the
Rotary will hold fun family activities including pet shows, raffle, contests,
fashion show, food bazaar, and more.
Do your Holiday shopping
It’s the time of the year to buy those presents for each
person on your holiday gift list.
Whether you’re buying a gift for officemates or you’re looking for
presents for your godchildren, there are a lot of great holiday gifts waiting
for you at Greenfield District’s Christmas-themed weekend market bazaars.
Located at the Greenfield District Central Park, the Greenfield Weekend Market
is open every Saturday and Sunset Fair is open every Sunday from 3 pm to 12
midnight. Aside from shopping, you can take nice photos inside a bazaar filled
with colorful Christmas decorations. You
can also enjoy a quick food trip and some engaging Arts and Crafts activities.
