Ayala Malls Cinemas is hosting an invitational screening of Wish, a musical-comedy from Walt Disney Animation Studios, this holiday season. The film tells the story of Asha, a quick-witted idealist, and her cosmic force, Star, as they embark on a magical adventure to conquer King Magnifico, the ruler of Rosas.
With its inspiring narrative, top-notch visuals, and enchanting music, Wish promises to be the must-watch movie of the season, tailor-made for families and friends. Ayala Malls adds an extra layer of magic to these family-friendly outings by offering fun activities for everyone.
On November 18, Ayala Malls hosted the Philippine premiere of Wish at Glorietta Cinemas, and delighted guests with exciting pre-show games and activities at the Glorietta Activity Center, sponsored by Disney. These fun activities included hair braiding, coloring corners for the kids, and face painting as well as a special performance of “Aking Hiling,” the special Filipino rendition of the movie’s main soundtrack, by Zephanie Dimaranan who performed it for the first time live! Zephanie is also set to perform the song on the Wish 107.5 Bus this November 25 and at her upcoming meet and greet at Ayala Malls Central Bloc.
Starting this November 22, Wish will be shown in cinemas across the country. And because not everyone was able to catch the premiere, Ayala Malls happily invites friends and families to the movie’s grand opening weekend, this November 25 and 26, and to experience the same fun activities.
Come this Way to Rosas as the cinema lobbies will be beautifully transformed with stunning floral archways and a Wishing Wall installation inspired by the Kingdom of Rosas, that will surely transport moviegoers into a fantastical space.
Find not only picture-perfect corners but also fun activities to keep you entertained. At the “Hairstyle Inspired by Asha” Corner, young guests can elevate their dos with stars, ribbons, and butterflies, just like Asha. At the “Have Fun Like Valentino (the goat)” Corner, enjoy fun face-painting activities for the kids. The Wishing Wall, on the other hand, illuminated by brilliant lights and balloons, serves as a grand canvas where guests are invited to post their drawings and write down their wishes on the wall. Who knows, your wishes might just come true! A 20ft installation of Star can also be spotted at the center of the space. But don’t worry, for those around Ayala Malls Manila Bay and Ayala Center Cebu, you will have your Stars to gaze upon, too.
From the activity center to the cinemas, be wonderfully enveloped in the whimsy of Wish as even the cinema lobbies will all be dressed up, inspired by the Kingdom of Rosas.
“At Ayala Malls, we strive to create exciting opportunities for families and friends to come together—whether it’s through shopping, dining, or catching a movie. We ensure that these experiences are not just ‘fun visits’ to the mall but memorable moments spent with loved ones,” says Chrissy Roa, Group Head of Marketing and Communications for Ayala Land Estates and Ayala Malls.
Watching movies at cinemas has always been a great parent-child and family bonding activity that cuts across generations. Discover the large-than-life displays of Wish at Ayala Malls Cinemas nationwide. Tickets are now on sale at all Ayala Malls Cinemas, Zing app, or SureSeats.com.
