The holidays in full swing

The festive season is in full swing at Madison Galeríes with not one but two Christmas bazaars.

Led by dynamic power couple owners Joel and Joy Rustia and their daughter, marketing associate Tara Rustia, the upscale lifestyle and community mall recently held two  well-attended events at The Madison Events Place — the Mardi Gras Warehouse Clearance Sale Bazaar, Madison Galeríes’ much awaited annual and popular bazaar, which gave guests the opportunity to purchase quality products up to 80-percent off on all items; and Winter Fair, a bazaar featuring Manila’s best garments, products and other goods.

Madison Galeríes is a one-stop shop for dining, leisure, and other exciting activities this holiday season.

The Rustia family also donated part of the proceeds from the Mardi Gras Warehouse Clearance Sale Bazaar to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish, making the Yuletide season even more meaningful.

Indeed, the most wonderful time of the year is truly here!

It’s Christmas time at Madison Galeríes!

(The Madison Events Place is located at the third floor of Madison Galeríes on Don Jesus Boulevard, Alabang Hills, Muntinlupa City. For more information, visit www.facebook.com/MadisonGaleríes/ and @madisonGaleríes on Instagram.)
