Christmas came alive at Solaire Resort North as guests gathered for its annual Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony, marking the beginning of a season filled with festive celebrations, meaningful gatherings, and shared memories.

This year, with the theme My Favorite Christmas, the evening brought together music, dance, and holiday entertainment, setting the tone for the celebrations ahead.
A Festive Night of Performances
The celebration opened with a musical performance by the UST Singers, followed by a special presentation from Ballet Philippines. Adding to the evening’s festivities, soprano Rochelle Gerodias also graced the occasion with a performance, reminding guests of the deeper meaning of the season.

“As we celebrate the onset of Christmas here at Solaire North, let us all just be grateful and remember the true meaning of Christmas,” she shared.
Meanwhile, The Sirens brought a lively close to the program with their holiday numbers. Throughout the evening, the performers entertained guests with familiar Christmas songs, including selections that celebrated the simple joys and traditions of the season.

Celebrating the Meaning of Christmas

Solaire Resort North Chief Operating Officer Damien Quayle welcomed guests, partners, and team members, emphasizing how Christmas is a time to reconnect with the people who matter most.
“At Christmas, it’s about coming together, sharing meaningful moments, creating memories, and finding joy in the little things that make this time of the year truly special,” he said.
Drawing inspiration from My Favorite Christmas, Quayle highlighted the everyday experiences that make the holidays memorable. For instance, these include sharing meals, laughing around the table, and celebrating milestones with family and friends.
Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte also joined the celebration, recognizing the resort’s role in creating spaces where people can come together.
“The real warmth of Christmas is found not in the thousands of bulbs on these branches, or the elaborate decorations in this lobby. Rather, it is found in the people standing beside us,” she said.
Beyond the home, she also encouraged everyone to extend the spirit of family to their neighbors and fellow citizens, embracing the season through kindness and community.
A Season of Favorite Things
The highlight of the evening came when guests of honor joined the countdown and illuminated the resort’s Christmas tree. As the centerpiece lit up, it officially welcomed the holiday season and invited guests to make new memories throughout the coming weeks.
With festive dining, entertainment, and memorable experiences lined up for the holidays, Solaire Resort North invites guests to discover their own favorite things this Christmas. Ultimately, beyond the decorations and celebrations, the season is about reconnecting, sharing meaningful moments, and celebrating the people who make every gathering special.
