MARQUEE Mall, the favorite gathering place in Central Luzon, is joining the 15th Philippine Hot Air Balloon in Clark on February 11 to 14. The most-awaited February event is one of the biggest annual festivities inside the Clark Freeport Zone that has been drawing tens of thousands of spectators and tourists from all over the world.
Norie Ubalde-Raniel, deputy general manager of MarQuee Mall, said this is the first time that Ayala Malls will be joining the hot air balloon fest in which they have lined-up exciting activities and treats for all.
MarQuee Mall will showcase its own hot air balloon from February 11 to 14 that will be offered to the public for rides and photo shoots. The fun balloon ride is best for families, especially for children, who are expected to flock at the hot air balloon fiesta.

We want our clients and patrons to have fun and enjoy the Valentine holiday at the festival. Hope to see you all there and join the MarQuee Mall balloon riders,” Ubalde-Raniel said.

MarQuee Mall to the Hot Air Balloon site and vice versa.
The 15th Philippine Hot Air Balloon Fiesta will also have its launching at MarQuee Mall activity center on January 29.
