Santa Claus himself made a surprise appearance, delighting the crowd, especially the children. The excitement reached its peak as Isabel Oli and her daughter, alongside Santa Claus, SM Executives, and local government officials, spearheaded the Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony.

No Christmas celebration is complete without a touch of giving. The SM Bears of Joy campaign encourages shoppers to spread the joy by purchasing a pair of bears for only Php280, keeping one and donating the other to a chosen charity. It's a beautiful way to share the spirit of Christmas with those in need.

The event was complete with a delightful popcorn and candy buffet, adding a touch of fun and sweetness to the celebration.

The Purrfect Christmas at SM East Ortigas was a truly unforgettable experience, filled with festive cheer, heartwarming moments, and a reminder of the true spirit of the season. It was a celebration of love, hope, and the joy of giving, bringing together the community in a spirit of unity and shared joy.
