Shangri-La Plaza is more than just a mall—it’s an immersive lifestyle destination that blends luxury, culture, and entertainment in the heart of Ortigas. Moreover, true to its commitment to the arts, the mall serves as a cultural hotspot, regularly hosting various performances and events. The holiday season at Shangri-La Plaza exemplifies this perfect blend of shopping, culture, and community.
More Than Just A Mall
Shangri-La Plaza’s The Giving Concert was a show-stopping celebration that filled the air with holiday magic and heartwarming performances. Theater icons Gab Pangilinan and Myke Salomon took the stage, their powerful voices resonating alongside the Manila Philharmonic Orchestra. The evening crescendoed with a vibrant, high-energy dance performance by the renowned GFORCE, leaving the audience awestruck and in the holiday spirit.
Adding an extra dose of excitement to the festivities, Shangri-La Plaza launched its Wishes & Wheels Christmas Raffle, where guests have the chance to win one of three brand-new cars. For every P2,500 spent, shoppers earn a raffle ticket—double the entries for dining and café purchases—turning every visit into an opportunity for joy and a dash of holiday fortune.
The celebrations continue throughout December with breathtaking performances, including the enchanting voices of the Ateneo Children’s Choir, St. Theresa’s College, and the Mandaluyong Children’s Choir, each taking center stage at the Grand Atrium. And to cap off the season in dazzling style, the Encore of Lights fireworks display on December 30 will light up the night sky at Streetscape, ringing in the new year with a spectacular visual feast.
It’s a month of giving, music, and unforgettable moments at Shangri-La Plaza—where the magic of the season truly comes to life.
