In December, Manila fills up quickly.

Malls glow brighter. Calendars tighten. Holiday plans stack up fast. And in the middle of it all, families start asking a quieter question. Where can we go that feels special without being exhausting?

This year, the answer might just be tucked inside The Space at Solaire.

For a limited time, Santa Claus is making a special appearance at Brickman® Wonders of the World, turning one of Manila’s most immersive exhibitions into a holiday experience built around imagination, creativity, and togetherness. From December 15 to January 4, Santa will be welcoming families daily from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM, inviting children to experience Christmas in a world made entirely of LEGO® bricks 

A Different Kind of Holiday Attraction

Brickman® Wonders of the World does not feel like a seasonal pop-up. It feels considered.

Inside, families walk through more than 45 large-scale LEGO® recreations of iconic landmarks from around the globe. Familiar sights like the Taj Mahal and the Arc de Triomphe rise brick by brick, crafted with astonishing detail by Ryan “The Brickman” McNaught, the only LEGO® Certified Professional in the Southern Hemisphere, alongside his expert team of model builders 

It is the kind of space where children stop running and start pointing. Where adults linger longer than they expect to. Where conversations shift from “What’s next?” to “How did they do that?”

Why Families Are Choosing This for Christmas

What makes this experience resonate, especially during the holidays, is how it balances wonder with participation.

Beyond the exhibition itself, kids are encouraged to build their own creations in interactive LEGO build zones, translating inspiration into play. It is hands-on, absorbing, and thoughtfully designed to keep curiosity alive long after the visit ends.

For parents navigating school breaks and holiday schedules, it offers something rare. A Christmas activity that feels meaningful, engaging, and calm without sacrificing excitement 

Santa, Without the Rush

Santa’s appearances at Brickman® Wonders of the World feel intentionally unhurried.

Families are invited to take photos, share moments, and experience the season without the pressure of long queues or overstimulation. Santa becomes part of the environment rather than the entire focus, woven into a setting that celebrates creativity and imagination.

As Carlos Candal, CEO of GMG Productions, explains, the holiday program centers on creativity, imagination, and togetherness, with Santa’s visit bringing the festive spirit to life in a space designed to inspire curiosity across generations 

Planning Your Visit


Brickman® Wonders of the World runs from December 13, 2025 to February 8, 2026 at The Space at Solaire, located within Solaire Resort and Entertainment City in Parañaque.

Santa’s appearances are limited to December 15 through January 4, making the Christmas season the ideal time to experience the exhibit at its most festive. Tickets are available exclusively via TicketWorld 

A Christmas Built Brick by Brick

Not every holiday memory needs to be loud.

Some are built slowly. Patiently. Brick by brick.

And sometimes, the most meaningful Christmas moments happen when imagination leads the way and Santa knows exactly where to find it.

Before a single note is played, there is already a journey waiting to unfold, one that moves not through space, but through centuries of sound. On January 21, the Far Eastern University Center for the Arts opens the doors of the FEU Auditorium to that journey with Tones Through Time: A Musical Odyssey , a free admission informational piano concert led by internationally acclaimed pianist and educator Dr. Raffi Kasparian .
