The Chinese New Year festivities at Mandani Bay bode immensely auspicious as they include the groundbreaking of the Retail Component at the Boardwalk, representing a major project milestone.

Mandani Bay joined the global community in ushering in Chinese New Year, alternately called the Lunar New Year, on February 8, 2024, Thursday, in signature grand revelry.

The groundbreaking ceremony comprises the highlight of the event. Lowering the time capsule at the event were Mr. Gilbert Ang, HTLand Project Director, Engr. Maynard Taray, Senior Project Manager HTLand Inc., Architect Dax Cuaresma, Design Manager HTLand Inc., Mr. Zosimo Mercado, President of JLO and Daughsons Inc., and April Salamero, HTLand Leasing Manager.

The Retail Component is one of the property’s most exciting elements, hosting homegrown and national names in dining. The concept is eagerly anticipated by discerning diners. It will host coffeshops and restaurants serving all-day breakfasts and culinary novelty in a setting that offers an unobstructed view of the Mactan Channel.

With the Retail Component, Mandani Bay justifies its evolution into a world-class lifestyle destination, effectively fully embracing Cebu as it brings people together into the community on a daily basis.

Mandani Bay’s Lunar New Year celebration is a tradition started in the community in 2017.

This year, as in previous years, the Chinese New Year Parade, at the multi-awarded Mandani Bay Show Gallery, featured the Dragon/Lion Dance. The dance is an important ritual believed to bring good luck and drive away evil spirits.

Mandani Bay is a 20-hectare waterfront mixed-use development. With its strategic location and thoughtful masterplan, it inevitably ignites core passions – culture, creativity, water and adventure, creating an enviable lifestyle, not only for its residents, but also for the greater community.

Last Saturday, January 20, 2024, the Mandani Bay Boardwalk receives thousands of Cebuanos and visitors for the annual viewing of the Sto. Nino Fluvial Procession. The Fluvial Procession Viewing, started in 2016, is now a Sinulog tradition.

Part of the masterplan, the Boardwalk has an unobstructed view of the Mactan Channel. It will soon have an amphitheater, the Marina and interesting retail and dining options.

Thousands attend the Fluvial Procession Viewing, enjoying the sunrise revelry that precedes the surreal moment when the head galleon bearing the miraculous Sto. Niño image faces the Boardwalk en route to its Cebu City landing. The event is a grand celebration of song and dance, both a showcase of Cebuano culture and spiritual offering to the Holy Child. Local cuisine will also be on display as on-site concessionaires offer a vast array of meals and delicacies.

Everyone is welcome at the Fluvial Procession Viewing. Gates open at 4:30 am.

With its participation in Fiesta Señor/Sinulog 2024, Mandani Bay strengthens its bond with the wider Cebuano community and actualizes its passions for culture, creativity, water and adventure.

Mandani Bay is Cebu’s most promising development.  With a 500-meter water frontage facing the Mactan Channel, this world-class 20-hectare development has a stunning view of the coast and encompassing cityscape. The development celebrated a significant milestone on Monday, January 15, 2024 with the simultaneous topping-off of the four towers of Mandani Bay Quay.
