A Five-Star Celebration: NUSTAR Resort Cebu Ignites the Holiday Spirit with Enchanting Mystical Magic

Cebu City, Philippines – NUSTAR Resort Cebu, renowned as the pinnacle of luxury in the Visayas-Mindanao region, ushered in the holiday season with a spectacular Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony on October 25, 2024, held at the opulent Atrium. This enchanting event marked the beginning of NUSTAR’s Mystical Holiday Magic, captivating guests with a breathtaking array of twinkling lights and festive decorations that transformed the venue into a winter wonderland. The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as families and friends gathered to witness the mesmerizing display, creating unforgettable memories as the holiday spirit filled the air.

NUSTAR’s Tree Illumination: The Installation of Stars

For three remarkable years, NUSTAR has upheld a beloved tradition that brings its vibrant community together. Esteemed members, known as Star Bearers, are honored to carry symbolic stars—each one a shining embodiment of love, hope, peace, and joy. This annual event beautifully illuminates the tree, reflecting the core values that NUSTAR holds close to its heart. This year, the grand finale was marked by the presence of Mr. Alan Teo, the property’s COO, who proudly carried the fifth and final star. His contribution brought the radiant display to completion, encapsulating a breathtaking celebration of unity and shared joy among all gathered.

This year, the property hosted a remarkable event that invited changemakers who truly embody the core values of the organization. These individuals, each having made significant contributions and positive impacts in their respective fields, were carefully selected to represent the spirit of the stars they placed on the tree.

As each influential figure stepped forward to position their star, they were joined by the dedicated scholars of Sistemang Pilipino, emphasizing the importance of mentorship and community involvement. This heartwarming tradition served as a powerful reminder of the deeper significance behind the festive season, weaving together threads of tradition, purpose, and a sense of belonging.

The ceremony reached a beautiful crescendo as the last star was placed, illuminating the Atrium with a warm, inviting light. This stunning display symbolized NUSTAR’s unwavering commitment to spreading hope, joy, peace, and love to its patrons and the local community during the holiday season. It was a moment of unity and inspiration, reflecting the collective effort to uplift and enrich the lives of those around them.

Celebrating with Purpose: A Heartfelt Tribute to the Community

NUSTAR’s Mystical Holiday Magic emphasizes the importance of community involvement alongside luxury during the Christmas season. Through its philanthropic branch, the Universal Cultural Foundation Inc. (UCFI), a notable contribution was made to Sistema Pilipino, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting young musical talent in Cebu and throughout the Philippines. In this initiative, scholarships were awarded to deserving young musicians, enabling them to pursue their dreams and hone their skills. This effort highlights the significance of giving back during the holidays, demonstrating how the spirit of Christmas can positively impact the lives of those in need.

A Night to Remember: Music, Magic, and Holiday Cheer

Having spent nearly two decades in the media, I’ve had the privilege of attending a multitude of Christmas Tree Lighting ceremonies, some even overseas. Yet, none have captured my attention quite like the event at NUSTAR. The production quality was remarkable, featuring an intricately designed tree that sparkled with thousands of lights. The performers brought the evening to life with their vibrant energy and captivating performances. Additionally, the collaboration with a local organization added a heartwarming touch, showcasing community spirit and creativity. It was an extraordinary experience that truly set a new standard for holiday celebrations.

The celebration culminated in a special afterparty at Axis, where attendees had the exclusive opportunity to view the premiere of NUSTAR’s music video, “Balay ni Mayang.” This video serves as a sequel to the previously launched “I Love Cebu” music video, presented during the Sinulog festivities. The afterparty featured a dynamic mix of live performances and festive music, creating an atmosphere filled with holiday cheer and excitement that extended throughout the evening.
