Featuring Sessionistas and Mon Confiado in a Night to Remember
Ormoc City, Philippines — The holiday season officially sparkled to life in Ormoc as the city unveiled its breathtaking “Tree of Light,” a masterful creation by world-renowned Filipino designer Kenneth Cobonpue. The ceremonial lighting was celebrated with a festive gathering attended by local celebrities, including the beloved Sessionistas and charismatic host Mon Confiado, who joined residents in ushering in a season of joy, reflection, and environmental consciousness.
Standing tall in the heart of Ormoc, the Tree of Light is far more than a dazzling Christmas centerpiece—it’s a tribute to the city’s deep connection with nature. Designed in three symbolic layers, the installation takes viewers on a visual journey from sea to sky, echoing Ormoc’s rich ecological tapestry.
The base of the tree captures the essence of the sea, with flowing forms inspired by waves, vibrant corals, and intricate mangrove roots—nodding to Ormoc’s coastal heritage. The middle section bursts with representations of flora and fauna, celebrating the lush land that sustains daily life on the island. Soaring above, the top layer embodies the sky, featuring delicate, airy structures reminiscent of birds in flight—a symbol of hope, freedom, and the ever-changing beauty of nature.
“This tree is not just for celebration—it’s a call to action,” said a city official during the event. “It reminds us that protecting our environment is protecting Ormoc’s future.”
The night was filled with music, community spirit, and a shared sense of pride as the ASAP Sessionistas delivered a heartwarming performance, while Mon Confiado energized the crowd with his signature charm and holiday messages.
As the Tree of Light glows through the season, Ormoc City invites both locals and visitors to reflect on the harmony between humanity and nature—and to carry that spirit of stewardship into the new year.
