A FIVE-STAR CELEBRATION: NUSTAR Resort Cebu Ignites the Holiday Spirit with Enchanting Mystical Magic

Cebu City – NUSTAR Resort Cebu, the premier destination for world-class luxury in the Visayas-Mindanao region, officially kicked off the holiday season with its highly-anticipated Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony held at The Atrium on October 25, 2024.

The event, which marked the launch of NUSTAR’s Mystical Holiday Magic, enchanted guests with a dazzling display of lights and festive decorations.

NUSTAR’s Tree Illumination: The Installation of Stars

For three years, NUSTAR has maintained a cherished tradition, where esteemed members of the community, its Star Bearers, are invited to carry symbolic stars that represent love, hope, peace, and joy, illuminating the tree with values that NUSTAR holds dear. The fifth and final star was carried by the property’s COO, Mr. Alan Teo, completing the radiant display of unity and celebration.

This year, the property invited changemakers who best represent each value—individuals who have made a positive impact in their respective fields and embody the spirit that each star represents. As these influential figures placed their stars on the tree, they were accompanied by the Sistemang Pilipino scholars. This tradition reminded everyone of the deeper meaning behind the festive season, a blend of tradition, purpose, and community. The culmination of the ceremony left the Atrium bathed in light, symbolizing NUSTAR’s commitment to bringing hope, joy, peace, and love to its patrons and the local community throughout the holiday season.

Celebrating with Purpose: A Heartfelt Tribute to the Community

NUSTAR’s Mystical Holiday Magic was not just about luxury—it also embodied the true spirit of Christmas by giving back to the community. Through its foundation, the Universal Cultural Foundation Inc. (UCFI), made a significant contribution to Sistema Pilipino, a nonprofit organization that nurtures young musical talent across Cebu and the Philippines. As part of this heartfelt gesture, scholarships were awarded to deserving young musicians, providing them with the opportunity to pursue their dreams and develop their talents. This act of generosity was a powerful reminder of the importance of uplifting others during the holiday season, ensuring that the magic of Christmas extends beyond the festivities and into the lives of those who need it most.

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

The celebration reached its peak with a special afterparty at Axis, where guests were treated to the exclusive launch of NUSTAR’s music video, “Balay ni Mayang.” Balay ni Mayang is a continuation to the “I Love Cebu” music video launched during the Sinulog festivities. The afterparty was a magical blend of live performances, festive music, and unforgettable holiday cheer, ensuring the night carried on with joy and excitement.
