In the heart of the ‘Palace of the People’, the spirit of Christmas comes alive once again as the historic grounds of Malacañan Palace play host to the annual ‘Tara sa Palasyo’.

Beginning December 16, the nine (9)-day Misa De Gallo takes place from 4:30 AM to 5:00 AM at the Mabini Grounds of the Palace. After the mass, visitors are treated to servings of delectable Puto Bumbong and Bibingka, partnered with hot chocolate, making the Filipino Christmas tradition more joyful and meaningful.

The festivities continue in the evenings as the public is also invited to explore this year’s enchanting Christmas display, with carnival-themed rides that are accessible to all free of charge. The gates are open from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM until December 23.

In the season of togetherness, Malacañan Palace encourages families and loved ones to join in and truly embrace the essence of the Yuletide season. More than an event, ‘Tara sa Palasyo’ is a shared experience, and an opportunity to share in the warmth, joy and traditions that make Christmas in the Philippines truly special.
