The Kultura Christmas Crawl isn’t just a shopping event—it’s an opportunity to support Filipino businesses while making holiday celebrations more meaningful. Whether you’re after unique gifts or simply want to immerse yourself in the festive spirit, this curated market offers the best of Filipino creativity and enterprise.
Running from Nov. 18 to 24 at the Main Mall Atrium, this annual event gathers a generous mix of homegrown brands and products, making it a convenient one-stop destination for holiday gifting.
The crawl showcases a variety of items, including contemporary fashion, personal care products, home accessories, gourmet treats, and uniquely Filipino souvenirs. Whether you’re shopping for practical everyday items or artisanal goods, there’s something to fit every personality and budget.
But what sets this event apart is the experience it offers. The festive atmosphere is designed to make shopping more enjoyable. Participants are given a “Kultura Crawl Hunt Card” to collect stickers, earning chances to win prizes through a spin-and-win game. Shoppers using BDO credit or debit cards or Alipay can also enjoy cashback vouchers, adding extra value to their purchases.
To make the gifts even more special, customization services are available during the event. Shoppers can have leather items monogrammed at Bags in the City, personalized jewelry at Dam Good Stuff, or opt for laser engraving on materials such as wood, glass, ceramic, and select fabrics. These services will be offered on specific dates – Nov. 18, 23, and 24.
To enhance the overall experience, the event also features live demonstrations and tastings. The opening day, hosted by KC Montero, includes demos on cocktail mixing, coffee brewing, and snack pairing. Throughout the week, visitors can sample locally crafted beverages such as Destileria Barako’s Ube Cream Liqueur and Don Papa’s premium rum, perfect for holiday gatherings. Those dropping by on Nov. 23 and 24 will also be treated to live caroling performances.
Kultura Christmas Crawl is also known for celebrating Filipino craftsmanship, which means fashion enthusiasts can explore brands like Alixia Marie PH, which combines traditional elements with modern designs, or Bags in the City, known for its customizable leather accessories. Binibini Marikit offers clothing inspired by local heritage, while Boho Manila features bohemian-style pieces handcrafted by underserved communities.
For food and beverage lovers, there’s Auro Chocolate’s tree-to-bar creations that support local farmers and Theo & Philo’s premium chocolates made from Davao cacao beans. Destileria Limtuaco, the country’s oldest distillery, brings its timeless spirits, while Nom Poptails introduces ready-to-freeze lambanog cocktails.
Home and personal care are also well-represented. Amber and Anne present tableware and dining sets with a Filipino twist, while Cocobody highlights virgin coconut oil-based personal care products. Wonderhome completes the lineup with sustainable cleaning products in eco-friendly packaging.
