As the most cherished time of year approaches, Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau is thrilled to unveil “Joy of Wonder”, a magical lineup of celebrations featuring exquisite dining experiences, engaging joyful activities, and heartwarming moments. Running from early December through the New Year, this thoughtfully curated festive program is designed to enchant, inspire and bring sparkle to the city.
The festivities will officially commence on 5 December with the highly anticipated “Joy of Wonder” Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony. This year’s centrepiece is a stunning 5-metre-tall Christmas tree, crafted from dark chocolate and adorned with intricate leaf shaped chocolate cookies and festive symbols such as angels, shining stars, and gingerbread men – a true testament to the creativity of the hotel’s culinary team. Guests are invited to join an engaging ‘guess’mas’ tree game on social media, where they can estimate the number of chocolate leaves adorned on the Christmas tree. The participant with the closest guess and submitted in the shortest time will win exciting hotel experience prizes.
To elevate the festive atmosphere, Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau will host an array of celebratory promotions across its four signature restaurants and bar, and the lush urban resort. Mr Rutger Verschuren, Area Vice President for Macau and Hengqin Operations at Artyzen Hospitality Group and General Manager of Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau, expressed his excitement for the festive season: “This Christmas, we are delighted to continue our cherished tradition of revealing the magnificent Christmas tree in our iconic Hotel Lobby, accompanied by the enchanting carollers from The International School of Macau. For us at Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau, Christmas signifies a time of warmth and joy, allowing us to engage with our community and spread happiness, which is at the heart of our mission. We warmly invite both local residents and visitors to join us in celebrating Christmas in a cosy, family-oriented atmosphere. This year, we are thrilled to kick off the festivities with our extraordinary chocolate Christmas tree, a true masterpiece crafted with culinary artistry, creativity, and love. I invite everyone to come and immerse themselves in our rich and vibrant Christmas program, and join our events.”
Following the tree lighting ceremony, members of the Executive Committee of Artyzen Grand Lapa Macau gathered together with two TIS Choir representatives for a toasting and log cake cutting opportunity. The log cake was shared among all participants to signify the dedication of the hotel to connect with the community with care and to celebrate with all of Macau.
