Grand Westside Manila Bay Opens Christmas Celebrations with a Giving Initiative

Grand Westside Manila Bay welcomed the Christmas season with a tree-lighting celebration on November 12, 2026, pairing European-inspired decorations with Filipino traditions and a gift-giving initiative for children.

Held at the hotel in Westside City, Entertainment City, Parañaque, the event introduced the theme “A European Christmas Village, Celebrated with a Filipino Heart.”

Gingerbread houses, festive greenery, market-style stalls, and lights formed part of the setting, while traditional Filipino parols brought a familiar local element to the display. A live harpist welcomed guests before the ceremonial tree lighting.

Hotel executives, business partners, tourism representatives, media guests, and other visitors joined the celebration.

According to the hotel’s release, General Manager Joe Xavier Fijardo described the concept as a combination of European Christmas traditions and Filipino hospitality, with family, friendship, gratitude, and sharing at its center.

A Christmas initiative for young singers

The celebration also launched A Village of Giving, a community initiative supporting the children of Minstrels Rhythm of Hope – Little Singers.

The group performed Christmas carols during the event. The hotel describes the organization as providing children from disadvantaged communities with opportunities to develop musical skills, build confidence, and pursue their education.

From November 12 to December 21, 2026, guests, visitors, and hotel associates may leave gifts and contributions at a dedicated donation house beside the Christmas tree in the lobby.

The hotel said the contributions will be shared with the children in time for Christmas.

Holiday dining and year-end celebrations

Grand Westside Manila Bay also announced a Christmas Village Market featuring seasonal gifts, cakes, and holiday hampers.

Its festive program includes Christmas Eve at the Village and A Golden New Year’s Eve Feast at Café by Westside. The release also lists World of Flavours, Grill & Rhythm, and Sip ’n Splash, alongside a special 3+1 dining offer.

The hotel plans to close the year with A Golden Midnight, a New Year’s Eve countdown at its fifth-floor Open Deck. Holiday stay packages are also part of the seasonal lineup.

Rates, individual event schedules, and detailed dining offer conditions were not included in the release. Guests can check Grand Westside Manila Bay’s website for reservations and inquiries.
