OKADA MANILA unveiled its official Christmas tree on Nov. 22 at the property’s Pearl Lobby. The 30-foot Christmas tree is decorated with chiffon fabric, assorted gold and copper ornaments, a variety of mirror balls with crystal beads, and silver glitter palm leaves. It has over 22,500 LED baubles. The glittery tree is the centerpiece of “Sparkles of Hope,” the integrated resort’s property-wide Christmas celebration that aims to inspire hope, goodwill, and optimism in these challenging times. The tree lighting ceremony was led by Okada Manila Senior Vice-President for Hotel Operations Ivaylo Ivanov. It was followed by world-class performances by the Okada Manila Entertainment Group and Jona, who serenaded viewers at Cove Manila. The event was live streamed via Facebook.
