The festivities kicked off with the Superhero & Princesses Weekend on October 3 to 4, where children ages 4 to 12 had the opportunity to dress up as their favorite superheroes and princesses or bring their original characters to life through creative costumes. Participants also showcased their confidence and creativity through character introductions and performances.
Adding excitement to the celebration, five outstanding costume entries were set to receive ₱3,000 worth of SM gift certificates each, recognizing the imagination and effort of the young participants. Families were encouraged to make the most of the experience by planning their mall visits and pre-registering through the SM Malls Online App.
A princess, a frog, and a magical moment! Who knows, that kiss might just turn into a fairytale at the Superheroes and Princesses Costume Contest at SM City Clark. Dreams took center stage as little princesses dazzled the crowd with charm, confidence, and a touch of magic at the Superheroes & Princesses Costume Contest in SM City Marilao.
The fun continued on October 10 to 11 with the SM Super Kids Dance Challenge, encouraging young dance enthusiasts to learn and perform the official “Gala to the Max” dance to the campaign’s official jingle by DNA.
Children and their families were invited to record their dance performances at SM malls and share their entries on Facebook or TikTok using the hashtag #SMSuperKidsDanceChallenge. With ten winners set to receive ₱15,000 each, the challenge gave kids more reasons to showcase their talent, creativity, and love for music and movement.
Due to the exciting response, the SM Super Kids Dance Challenge has been extended until October 20 in select SM Malls in North Luzon, giving more young participants the opportunity to join the fun, express themselves through dance, and take part in the celebration.
