Welcome the Year of the Wood Snake with prosperity in Araneta City

Celebrate Chinese New Year with exciting events and promotions in the City of Firsts. Araneta City welcomes the Year of the Wood Snake with a lively celebration full of tradition, festivities, and good fortune!

The Snake in Chinese astrology represents wisdom, intelligence, intuition, and creativity. To reflect these qualities, the City of Firsts provides activities focused on renewal, prosperity, and transformation. This is the year to strike with purpose, as the Wood element strengthens the Snake's adaptability, making 2025 an ideal time to align goals and embrace change. Snakes are known as deep thinkers and skilled strategists. They navigate life with elegance and purpose—much like Araneta City's "Strike for Success" theme, which inspires everyone to welcome good luck, financial success, and meaningful transformation with open arms.

Dazzling Decors

The celebration at the City of Firsts begins with enchanting decorations throughout its malls. Traditional Chinese arches will greet visitors at Gateway Malls 1 and 2, Ali Mall, and Farmers Plaza. The Quantum Skyview at Gateway Mall 2 will be centered on a stunning effigy representing the spirit of the Wood Snake.

A Horoscope Exhibit at Gateway Malls 1 and 2 and Farmers Plaza will provide insight into the zodiac predictions for 2025, including advice on love, career, health, and luck. Visitors can view interactive displays highlighting the strengths and opportunities of each Chinese zodiac sign.

Exciting Festivities

On January 28 and 29, Araneta City's Lunar New Year celebrations will be brought to life with traditional Dragon and Lion Dance performances that will spread dynamic energy and drive away negativity in preparation for prosperity.

On January 29, the Chinese New Year festivities begin in full swing at all Araneta City malls. Visitors to Gateway Mall 2 can enjoy a Chinese Acrobats Show, a cultural performance by students from the Philippine Chung Hua School, a Tarot Card Reading session, and a photo booth. Gateway Mall 1 will host a Jigsaw Puzzle Competition, and Farmers Plaza will have a Zodiac Runway Costume Contest. 

From January 22 to 31, Ali Mall will host a Chinese New Year Prosperity Bazaar, featuring lucky charms, festive treats, and symbolic good fortune items. On January 29, they will receive a reading and Feng Shui consultation from Master Ang to learn about their fortunes for the coming year.

Irresistible Promos

Shoppers can look forward to special Chinese New Year treats on January 29. Customers who spend ₱1,500 at Araneta City malls can receive a free snake plant representing resilience and prosperity, as well as a free tarot reading at Gateway Mall 2 or Ali Mall.

The "Hidden Red Envelope Hunt" Challenge, an interactive digital promotion in which social media live streams drop clues leading to a hidden red envelope somewhere in Araneta City, adds to the excitement of the festivities. The first person to find it will win two movie passes.

This Chinese New Year 2025, Araneta City promises a memorable celebration of luck, renewal, and success. So gather your loved ones, join the festivities, and aim for success as we celebrate a year of opportunity, abundance, and joy at the City of Firsts!
