Beautiful skyline, swaying skaters and an array of branded sections set the tone for the weeklong holiday experience at Wonderland Lagos. The one-stop holiday experience for family and friends has opened its doors to receive families and friends at one of its villages- Christmas in Wonderland at the heart of Eko Atlantic Energy City VI, Lagos.
The opening ceremony was ushered in by a meet and greet session with Nickelodeon and once-a-year experiential event which started with a meet and greet with Nickelodeon followed by Tree Lighting session to officially unveil the village. The event also drew celebrities such as Osas Ighodaro, Tania Omotayo, Noble Igwe, Lilian Esoro amongst others to the earthy ambience while a dance performance from DNMT Dance crew turned up the heat for the festivity.
It was non-stop free drinking of Maltina pineapple for many guests who milled around Wonderland in awe of the beauty of the Christmas-themed village. With security presence, children freely plied the green carpeted area, waltzing through the maze of fun spots.
