Now in its 5th year, SM City Pampanga’s Biggest Lantern of Hope brings light and music to the Christmas Capital of the Philippines. The Pampanga Eye, the biggest and tallest Ferris wheel in the Philippines will light up this holiday season through a Pyro-musical show as it brightens the sky in a grand magical firework display, colorful dancing lights synced with the all-time favorite Christmas carols.
As the Christmas Capital of the Philippines, Pampanga is the birthplace of the giant lanterns that light up the holiday skies. The largest incarnations of the parol, these dazzling handcrafted Christmas lanterns symbolize the Star of Bethlehem. Each lantern stands about 20 feet and features over 5,000 lights. They are a sight to behold as with each parol displaying a kaleidoscope of light, music, and color.
This year, discover a whole new display of colorful lights and fireworks synced with music as the Biggest Lantern of Hope lights up the sky once again. With this, the 65 meter (or 213 feet) tall Ferris wheel sparkles with 17,664 dancing led lights and additional colorful fireworks on the inner part of the wheel, on-ground and aerial fireworks.
Starting November 16, park guests can enjoy a spectacular 10-minute Pyro technic musical show that will take place at the Amphitheatre starting at 6 o’clock in the evening. Catch this grand Pyro-musical display for 4 consecutive Saturdays on November 23, November 30, and December 7.
