A World of Christmas unfolds at Newport World Resorts
The holidays officially began at Newport World Resorts with a scene straight out of a storybook.
At the grand tree lighting ceremony on November 6, guests gathered to the sound of a live orchestra, watching as the entire property sparkled in unison: a magical start to The World of Christmas at Newport World Resorts.
As the country’s premier lifestyle and entertainment destination, Newport World Resorts sets the bar for an unforgettable season filled with festive feasts, indulgent treats, and spectacular performances.
A taste of the holidays
Across the property, the holidays are celebrated through inspired feasts made to bring people together. At Garden Wing Café, signature holiday takeaways bring joy to every table: lechon-style pork belly rolls, honey-glazed hams, and roulades made for sharing, alongside gingerbread houses and fruitcakes that sweeten every celebration.
Over at the Marriott Café Bakery, the spotlight is on the Palawan Honey-Glazed Roasted Turkey, served with an ensemble of comforting sides that make every gathering feel complete.
The Michelin Selected Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill transforms its private dining rooms into the merriest Christmas setting in collaboration with renowned stylist Randy Lazaro, featuring its signature Whole Beef Wellington Log, Whole Roasted Turkey with traditional trimmings, and festive cocktails.
Gifts of indulgence
Holiday indulgence goes beyond the feasts—it’s also found in the art of giving.
At Hotel Okura Manila’s Pastry Boutique, every handcrafted creation is a piece of edible art: exquisite chocolates, pastries, and cakes that combine Japanese artistry with the warmth of the holidays.
Hilton Manila’s Madison Lounge & Bar lights up the season with a collection of exquisite pastries and desserts that capture the whimsy of Christmas, such as the Rudolf Chocolate Cake.
Meanwhile, Sheraton Manila Hotel’s Oori presents a refined take on gifting with its Butcher Box sets featuring selections of Water Aged Beef, Wagyu Beef, and Duroc Pork beautifully packaged as the perfect gifts for your loved ones.
The sounds of the season
The celebration continues with music that captures the heart of the Filipino Christmas.
“Here and Now: Celebrating the Music of Jose Mari Chan” gathers some of the country’s most beloved performers including Martin Nievera, Gary Valenciano, Regine Velasquez-Alcasid, and the Apo Hiking Society for two nights of timeless songs and holiday cheer.
Finally, the festivities culminate with The Grand Countdown to 2026 at the Marriott Grand Ballroom, an evening of brilliance and celebration to welcome the new year in true Newport fashion.
