For the 26-day duration of the event, which is organized by Prime Asia Trade Planners and Convention Organizers headed by Henry Babiera, the shopping center ‘s upscale image will be shed for the meantime and will have a “masa” image makeover as it adopts a Divisoria-style bargain hunters haven for shoppers from all walks of life who want value for their money.

Meanwhile, after their tiring shopping spree at the fair, shoppers can have their relaxation by visiting Las Farolas, the country’s state-of-the-art museum of river monsters on Frontera Drive beside Tiendesitas, Ortigas Ave., Pasig City which has over a collection of 3,000 freshwater fish varieties from around the globe.
