The glow of parols and the harmony of carols lit up Camella communities around the islands, as the Philippines’ most trusted and preferred homebuilder held its Christmas Tree Lighting Event and Homecoming Fair, a heartwarming celebration of Filipino homecoming and the lifelong dream of homeownership.
Christmas lights in 1,240 communities, from Luzon to Mindanao, came alive in a synchronized display of festivity, marking the official start of the holiday season. At the heart of every neighborhood stood a towering Christmas tree, surrounded by families, residents, homebuyers, investors, and business partners, all gathered to witness a timeless tradition that has come to define the Camella legacy of connection and continuity.
A celebration that illuminated the nation
The evening opened with performances by children’s choirs, their cheerful voices filling the air with Christmas carols that evoked nostalgia and joy. Before the program began, mini parols were distributed to guests, creating a sea of soft, glowing lights signifying thanksgiving and togetherness.
As the music played, families, residents, homebuyers, investors, and business partners gathered around the stage, where live feeds from key locations linked Camella communities nationwide in a unified moment.
Event hosts welcomed the crowd, sharing stories and successes of families who found their forever homes with Camella. The highlight followed: guests switched on mini parols and approached the Christmas trees as Camella Group Heads led the ceremonial lighting. At the signal, thousands of lights illuminated communities nationwide, accompanied by children’s choirs singing Christmas medleys.
In several Camella communities, the spectacle culminated in a fireworks display, symbolizing the beginning of another season of giving and gratitude.
Festivities for families and the community
After the Christmas tree lighting event, guests enjoyed a seasonal spread filled with Filipino favorites, including puto bumbong and bibingka, as well as hot cocoa and salabat, which brought the comforting flavors of Christmas to every table. Camella communities also featured on-site activities that turned each neighborhood into a holiday fairground.
Children gathered at the kids’ crafts corner, where they made ornaments and wrote letters to parents, friends, and even Santa Claus. Families strolled through community market booths, supporting artisans and start-up businesses offering Christmas goods, gifts, and delicacies, fostering the spirit of bayanihan and local enterprise.
The Christmas Homecoming Fair: Extending the welcome of home
The week following the Christmas Tree Lighting, Camella held the Homecoming Fair, continuing the celebration of heart, home, and homeownership. As a follow-up to the Lifescapes Expo2025 and the second phase of the Camella Christmas campaign, the occasion invited families to explore communities across the archipelago through open houses and festive gatherings.
