  • San Juan Celebrates the Holidays at Santolan Town Plaza’s Annual Tree Lighting

    The Christmas season officially began at Santolan Town Plaza on November 17, 2025, as the community came together at The Pavilions for its annual Tree Lighting Ceremony. Now in its fifth year, this well-loved tradition has become a favorite for San Juan residents, bringing families, friends, and neighbors together to celebrate the joy of the holidays.

    Rockwell executives — Mike Lopez, Senior Vice President for Office Commercial Development, Christine Coqueiro, Vice President for Retail Development; Tracey Castillo, Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer; and Jesse Tan, Vice President for Office Commercial Development — were joined by local officials including Mayor Francis Zamora, Vice Mayor Angelo Agcaoili, along with members of the San Juan City Council and valued tenants who helped make the event possible.

Soon after, the much-awaited moment arrived — the lighting of the 25-foot Christmas tree, adorned with 250 ornaments and 45,000 LED lights, all completed in just two nights. As the tree lit up, the plaza sparkled with warmth and color, a truly memorable start to the season at Santolan.

    The evening also celebrated Santolan Town Plaza’s milestones and new openings this year,  with exciting additions such as as Wahunomi, a café and bar; Mid Kid, serving hearty sandwiches; Café Mary Grace, known for its comforting classics; A1 Family Shabu Shabu, perfect for shared meals; Lulou Wellness, a space for older adults to stay active; Babymama, a trusted stop for new parents; and Browza, offering expert beauty services.
