Giant Christmas Tree is being put up annually. Based on my experience, this is third location. Unlike previous years, it has always been festive. But this year, the tree was placed on a small place.
The earlier site was utilized to enlarge the Gateway mall. It was relocated years earlier to a different site, but in 2021, the adjacent building was destroyed by a fire.

Maybe they are kinda having a safe Christmas, because before pandemic I think there's malfunction and the trees was almost burned.

Looks nice and pretty indeed. Too bad it has to be moved. I miss the old location between Ali Mall and Gateway (just beside Araneta Coliseum)

Still festive though for the past years it is situated on a huge space. No more food stalls.
