Five Things to Do on International Friendship Day

Posted on

Our friends play a large part in shaping who we are, whether it is a childhood best friend who we grew up with or work barkada who we relieve stress with. They provide constant support, help us become better people, and make life a lot more colorful and brighter.

Every July 30, we mark International Friendship Day to celebrate long-lasting bonds and spend extra time with friends who have been on our side through the good and bad. 

 

This International Friendship Day, make new memories with these activities at Ayala Center Cebu:

 

Do DIY craft projects

DIY activities are easy to prepare, and it is also a calming activity for you and your friends. Unleash your creativity through simple DIY activities like painting, making scrapbooks, and even designing home decor. Shop for art supplies at Art Bar and National Bookstore at Level 2. You can also find crafting and decor materials at Daiso and Mr. DIY both at Level 3. 

 

Watch a movie together 

You can finally head back to the cinemas and watch a flick on the big screen with your closest friends. Grab a popcorn and catch the latest movie releases at Ayala Center Cebu’s Cinemas. Get movie tickets at Level 4 or online at www.sureseats.com.

 

Enjoy a pamper session

Set aside time to catch up and de-stress with your best friends. Surprise them with a satisfying massage session at Mother’s Touch at Level 3 or Blind Massage at Basement 1. Have your nails done at Beauty & Butter Nail Lounge or get a haircut at Bench Fix Salon both at Level 4.

 

Go on a food trip

If there is one thing that can really bring friends together, it is food. Dine out and discover new food haunts or revisit shared food favorites with your friends. Enjoy Italian cuisine at Tavolata located at Level 4 and head to Cafe Laguna at Level 1 and try their Filipino High Tea for snacks. Cap the day with pizza and your favorite drinks at The Social at Level 4.

 

Shop ‘til you drop 

Friends are the most ideal shopping companions because they keep you up to date on the latest fashion trends and they give the best shopping advice. Cop the latest fashion pieces at Metro Department Store and at Rustan’s Department Store and get beauty essentials at Watsons located at Level 3 and The Face Shop at Level 1.
