As the capital rejoices with festivities, Crowne Plaza New Delhi Okhla organised their annual Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony and hosted meet and greet with Santa Claus.
Conceptualised in-house by the Engineering and House Keeping team, the 30 feet long sparkling Christmas tree is weaved around the theme ‘Incredible India’ with a beautiful hope of ‘Reviving Tourism’ in the coming year. It also echoes a strong & powerful sentiment towards ‘Make In India’ and drives home a compelling eco-awareness message around ‘Sustainable Tourism’.
Decoding the Christmas Tree
The ‘spices’ at the bottom celebrates India, the land of spices while the ‘puppets’ narrate the fables of fascinating folk culture. The shades of ‘saris’ represent the vibrant handloom industry of the country while the artifacts’ pay an ode to the local craftsmen and artists.
Strengthening the message of IHG Green Engage, the eco-friendly ‘Green’ represent the need of the hour – Sustainable Tourism while twinkling stars light up the hope for a better tomorrow.
The star of the show Santa Claus jingled all the way to light up the Christmas tree and danced with the adults and kids alike.
