LIST: Adjusted mall hours during Holy Week 2023

Holy Week is one of the most important holidays for most Filipinos. Apart from being the time to practice Catholic traditions, the season allows each and every member of the family to be united again. For some, it could also be a time to hold getaways or visit popular tourist attractions.  

However, summer’s not making our reunion cool in any way. With that, some of us opt to visit malls to relax, enjoy and make memories with our loved ones.  

But before you hop into your cars, make sure that the mall where you are going to is open during the holiday. Let this list of adjusted mall hours be your guide in planning your activities in the coming week.
