AS the holiday season sweeps across Penang, communities are adorned with twinkling lights, festive decorations, and a palpable sense of joy.

 

Christmas, a time of togetherness and celebration, has brought people together to embrace the spirit of giving and create lasting memories with loved ones.

 

Shopping malls, hotels and tourist attractions are transformed into winter wonderlands, with towering Christmas trees adorned with ornaments and glistening lights taking centre stage in public squares.

 

Families and friends gather to witness the ceremonial lighting of these magnificent trees, marking the start of the holiday season.

 

Over at Queensbay Mall, shoppers were treated to a journey beyond imagination with its Wanderlust Odyssey-themed display at the mall’s central atrium. The mall also lined up engaging workshops, snow shower sessions, meet-and-greet sessions with Santa Claus and Santa Roger, and others to keep the shoppers entertained throughout the festive period.

Nestled within the grandeur of giant books that spring to life, the exhibition, presented by Filamen and Sunway Carnival Mall through the Digital Art Gallery platform, is a vibrant and immersive celebration. It is located at the main atrium of the mall.
