Families welcome 2015 with revelry at Buddha-Bar Manila’s Mardi Gras New Year’s Eve Ball

MANILA, Philippines – Buddha-Bar Manila brimmed with bright holiday décor and resonated with a fun, festive air at its Mardi Gras New Year’s Eve Ball last December 31, 2014. Families had a blast ringing in 2015 with a celebration defined by great food, delicious conversation, iconic music, and elegant ambiance.

The metro’s most sophisticated restaurant-bar-and-lounge transformed into a glamorous holiday wonderland courtesy of the indoor light effects, confetti canons and sparklers. The scene recalled a sort of the world-famous Rio de Janeiro in Brazil Mardi Gras meets the confetti-filled New Year’s Countdown in Times Square, New York.  


Adding to the holiday delight were games held to entertain guests and raffle prizes given away ranging from signature eyewear to trips abroad. Families ushered in a brand new year with a countdown highlighted by champagne toasting and Buddha-Bar Manila’s Special New Year’s Eve Dinner Buffet, the centerpiece of which was the main course with Slow Roasted Beef served with Shitake Gravy and Roasted Vegetables, for P1800 net per person from 7 pm onwards.

Families made the most of the time to be together in the most wondrous season of all, feasting on a selection of glamorous party food, hors d’oeuvres, and a wide array of Buddha-Bar signature dishes.


The Mardi Gras-inspired party proved to be a brilliant idea to welcome the New Year with pomp and flourish. New Year’s Eve and Mardi Gras are, after all, everything about celebrating beloved traditions together and keeping them alive.
