Music lovefest and sweet treats


Music plays a central role in the City of Firsts' celebration from February 13 to 15. Main highlight is on February 15, with Gen Z's latest heartthrob -- PBB alumni Jarren Garcia -- serenading Farmers Plaza in an afternoon of romantic melodies and must-watch performances. 


Leading to this are pockets of live musical performances that will bring a festive atmosphere to all Araneta City malls:


  • February 13: Shirina's Serenade (Gateway Mall 1)

  • February 14: Karla and Arcy (Gateway Mall 2), Rain Gibbz (Gateway Mall 1), Aerone Mendoza (Ali Mall), Talaarawan (Farmers Plaza)


Apart from the musical presentations, the audience will feel the love with exciting freebies such as sweet goodies, photobooth, couple caricature, and tarot card reading on love. To enjoy these perks and watch all performances up close, guests simply need to present a P1,500 single-receipt purchase.


Celebrate love in every form


Araneta City also offers multiple opportunities to spread love. Netizens with a beautiful love story at the City of Firsts can join the "We Keep This Love in a Photograph" digital promo for a chance to win an overnight stay at Novotel Manila Araneta City with breakfast buffet for two! Simply share your photo while on a date at any Araneta City restaurant, use the hashtags #LoveBeatsInTheCity, #AranetaCity, #CityOfFirsts, and #ValentinesDay2025, and follow all of Araneta City and Gateway Mall's social media pages.


For those looking to declare their feelings in a grand way on February 14, "Quantum Skyview’s Love Confessions" invites shoppers to submit heartfelt messages to their crush via Araneta City’s official Facebook page. In return, the messages will be flashed on the massive Quantum Skyview LED of Gateway Mall 2, the first and only indoor LED ceiling in the metro!


Even fitness enthusiasts have something to look forward to with "Wear Your Status" on February 16. Be extra expressive at the Sunday aRUNeta Run Club by wearing your desired color depending on your relationship status (red for in love; pink for single; gray/black for broken; yellow for complicated) to turn your morning run into a playful social experience.


"Valentine’s Day is all about making meaningful memories, and Araneta City is the perfect place to create those moments. From live music to interactive activities, we invite everyone to come and celebrate love with us," said Marjorie Go, VP for Marketing of Araneta City. 


This Valentine’s season, there’s no better place to celebrate than Araneta City. Whether you are planning a romantic date, a fun day out with friends, or simply basking in the festive atmosphere, the City of Firsts your ideal City of Love for a lovely experience unlike any other.
