From Halloween Magic to a Whimsical Christmas: Family adventures begin at MITSUKOSHI BGC
BrandedUp in partnership with
As the -ber months roll in, they signal more than just a change in the weather—they mark the beginning of two of the most anticipated celebrations of the year: Halloween and Christmas. It’s a season when families come together to dress up, decorate, and share laughter, with malls often serving as the heart of these joyful gatherings.
This year, MITSUKOSHI BGC, invites everyone to rediscover the wonder of togetherness with a festive lineup that bridges two well-loved occasions, a fun-filled Halloween celebration and a sparkling Christmas spectacle inspired by Japanese imagination and heartwarming nostalgia.
Spooktacular start before the bells jingle
Before the glow of Christmas fills the air, MITSUKOSHI BGC sets the tone with a Halloween celebration for all ages.
From Oct. 24 to 26, the Kayou x CO. Halloween Cosplay Event gathers anime lovers, artists, and pop culture fans at the Second Floor (beside Arabica) for a three-day creative showcase of costumes, craftsmanship, and community.
On Oct. 26, families can join No Tricks, Just Treats in partnership with Little Pearls Nursery, where kids can enjoy a day of games, arts and crafts, face painting, and trick-or-treating across select stores. It’s an inclusive, family-friendly way to celebrate Halloween, fun, imaginative, and safe.
Prelude to the holidays
The holidays arrive early at MITSUKOSHI BGC with “A Sparkling Christmas Adventure,” a campaign inspired by Japanese artistry and the timeless wonder of childhood. Beginning Nov. 5, the mall transforms into a dreamy landscape of color and light, an experience that feels both modern and nostalgic.
The much-awaited Christmas Lighting Celebration marks the highlight of the season, complete with live performances, carolers, and the grand unveiling of the mall’s centerpiece, an installation featuring a special guest from Japan, a certain time-traveling robotic cat who has charmed generations across Asia.
Celebrating the spirit of giving
Beyond the sparkle and décor, MITSUKOSHI BGC keeps the spirit of generosity alive with its Seasonal Holiday Raffles. Lucky shoppers can win exciting prizes, including a Trip for Two to Japan (in partnership with JCB), as well as dining experiences at MI BGC and other exclusive rewards.
The raffle runs all season long, adding a touch of excitement to every shopping trip and reminding guests that small surprises often make the holidays more memorable.
A home above the holidays
Towering above MITSUKOSHI BGC is The Seasons Residences, a Japanese-inspired residential development by Federal Land, in partnership with Nomura Real Estate and Isetan Mitsukoshi.
With Haru Tower now welcoming residents and Natsu Tower nearing turnover by the third quarter of 2025, The Seasons Residences brings together the best of two worlds—Filipino hospitality and Japanese precision. Its spaces are designed for refined urban living, with amenities that include a swimming pool, fitness center, game rooms, and dedicated studios for yoga and dance.
A few two-bedroom suites are still available for those who wish to live right at the center of Bonifacio Global City’s growing Japanese hub. Residents also enjoy an in-house leasing program, ensuring comfort and convenience for investors and homeowners alike.
Recently honored with the Best Retail Development title at the Dot Property Philippines Awards 2025 and named Lifestyle Mall of the Year by the Retail Asia Awards 2025, the mall stands as a celebration of community, craftsmanship, and culture.
