Ready for some Holiday gift-giving? Check out your favorite Christmas bazaars which are now available both virtually and on-site for your shopping needs amid the new normal!
Every year, the yuletide season comes with Christmas bazaars in the Philippines. The Pinoy celebration of Christmas is the longest in the world and despite the year’s challenges prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Filipinos can still enjoy the season of giving this December.
Now more than ever, Philippine micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) need support from shoppers and have thus partnered with local holiday bazaars this year to boost the economy amid the global pandemic.
Here are our top picks for your holiday shopping this Christmas, available offline or online:
Noel Bazaar
The Noel Bazaar Series, known as the largest and longest-running annual holiday bazaar in Metro Manila, has officially gone online all year round!
This 2020, the Noel Bazaar is offering products and goodies from Filipino small business merchants straight to your doorstep. Rising independent brands, lifestyle shops, boutiques, and budding food enterprises are among the bazaar’s holiday season line-up for shoppers.
Every year, the event is also held for the benefit of charities such as the GMA Kapuso Foundation, Bantayog ng mga Bayani Foundation, Inquirer Foundation, Gifts and Graces Foundation, Noel P. Gozon Memorial Clinic, and many more.
