“Colors of Spring” Festival: Love and Laughter in Full Bloom at Park Towers




You know that you can never keep spring from coming or keep love from finding a way to rejoice and celebrate! Celebrating the essence of a delightful springtime and the very richness of pure love on this Valentine’s Day, Park Towers recently organized a festival called “Colors of Spring” in Karachi from February 12 - February 14, 2016. 

Drawing a good number of people, the festival excelled at creating the perfect aura for the love-birds who had headed to the mall for V-day celebrations. Veteran TV actor, Adnan Shah Tipu and his wife were also spotted at the event. 





The entire mall was adorned with beautiful floral decorations and red-and-white balloons while the aesthetically pleasing heart-shaped setup at the entrance added to the overall uniqueness (and I chose to take pictures of people taking pictures with it *wink wink*). 




As I finally made my way into the mall after taking pictures, I was greeted by the lovely mascots who had become an instant favorite amongst the children. A quick hello was made and then I headed over to the counter where I found people purchasing fresh flowers and bouquets for their loved ones. It was such a delightful sight watching a little girl presenting a red rose to her parents while the feelings remain indescribable.




                                      
Other Valentine gifts such as handmade greeting cards, chocolate boxes, teddy bears, etc. were also available at various kiosks.





The main highlight of the festival was the Shop and Win Campaign where shoppers were able to participate in a lucky draw after making purchase worth Rs. 2500 at the mall’s outlets. Multiple winners were selected and announced on a daily basis while the gifts included various items such as Eco Star Sound Bar System, LG Juicer, Haier Mobile Phones, Anex Iron & Toaster, Bicycles, Neutrogena Products, Gift Hamper by Change and 1st step.
                                       
                                      

Various other in-mall entertainment activities included Live Karaoke, a kiosk providing free Makeover to the beauties, a nail art stall, Fun Air Booth, Shoot a Wheel to Win, etc. while love tunes rang out over the mall’s stereo system. Moreover, cookies by Tiffany and coffee by Nescafe Dolce Gusto was also being served at the venue.

                                     

                                     

All in all, the “Colors of Spring” Festival turned out to be an enjoyable experience for the fun-loving crowd since it radiated the perfect festive vibe on Valentine’s Day. And people were glad that it happened. After all,

P.S. If you still haven’t bought a gift for your Valentine, there’s a Valentine Shoppers’ Guide and a monthly Shoppers’ Guide available at the venue to help you in making the right choice. 

                                     

Happy Shopping, Peeps! :)

#AtriumWSF15 Quaid Day/Christmas Celebrations – A Pakistani Winterlude to Remember




Packed with unbridled excitement and bringing the best of joy to the crowd, Team Atrium Mall celebrated Jinnah Day and Christmas with great fervor on December 25, 2015 in Karachi.

Followed by the grand fashion extravaganza, the #ColorsOfWinter Fashion Show being held earlier on December 19, 2015, the following event added more shades to the season’s celebrations while offering something for everyone at the venue.

Starting off with an exhilarating parade featuring a band of drummers, the celebrations became an instant hit amongst the audience who were delighted to see the performance.




The musical parade was then followed by the cake cutting ceremony and fireworks to mark Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah’s birth anniversary.





While the crowd cheered and chanted enthusiastically, we anxiously waited for the most exclusive part of the birthday celebrations to begin, which was none other than the final reveal of Quaid-e-Azam’s portrait (on 35ft x 15ft canvas) called #LifeOfJinnah being made by Pakistan’s well-known graffiti artist, Sanki King.




A huge round of applause filled the entire hall as soon as the stupendous portrait was revealed and we are pretty sure that everyone liked it since nobody left that place without taking a picture or a selfie with it!




While the final reveal had already captivated the crowd with its creativity, the other element that added more excitement to the festival was the Christmas celebrations. Atrium Mall had set up a fully-decorated activity area where one could spot the ever-amusing and vivacious VJ Godil engaging the audience in various games and giving away gifts like the generous Santa! *smiles*

And who wouldn’t love to have presents on Christmas, right?



While we weren’t able to make our way through the huge crowd and get our share of candies, we decided to walk around the shopping mall where we spotted some amazing discounts at many of the leading stores including Levi’s, Amir Adnan, Cambridge, Essence De Paris, etc. (The discounts and deals are expected to continue till January as a part of ongoing Winter Shopping Festival).


                                       


The exciting trip to the winter wonderland came to an end with a quick meet-up with VJ Godil (who I would love to call as Santa Godil now) and lots of wonderful memories to cherish for a long time.


Tis' a season to be jolly fa la la la la!
