Davao Photos & Videos: Royal Christmas Holiday Launch 2016 at SM City Davao
It’s the most wonderful time of the year once again in the Philippines and we Filipinos are known to celebrate Christmas the longest!
We started off the holiday season with the Royal Christmas Holiday Launch 2016 at SM City Davao on the first week in the month of November.
The grand Christmas lighting ceremony of SM Davao was held last November 4, 2016 Friday around 5PM at the SM Davao Annex event center as they welcomed the merriest season of the year.

Three decorated Christmas trees – 10 feet, 12 feet and 18 feet tall were surrounded by 8-foot tall toy soldiers will be seen in their Christmas set this year.
Aside from that, four giant toy soldiers were seen in the mall entrances greeting mall goers and showing the 100 days countdown to Christmas.
SM City Davao Mall Manager Ms. Lynette Lopez welcomed the guests to their Royal Christmas launch this year.

In the eyes of a child, it’s a moment of wonder and joy as they saw Santa Claus coming in with the two elves.
Around fifty children from the City Social Services and Development Office (CSSDO) were invited to this grand launch.

In the eyes of children, it is a season of joyful wonder and cheer, believing Christmas season is here and that wishes may come true through Santa.

This Santa surprised me when he suddenly spoke to me in the Visayan dialect as I was sitting down beside him when my friends and I were preparing for a group photo with him. Hohoho! Santa made me smile more!
Then I spotted the royalties…
