Majority of the shopping malls will open at 9:00 a.m. on December 24 and 31 and will cut short its operation hours due to December 25 Christmas and New Year celebration. On December 25, select SM malls in Metro Manila and provincial areas will open at 10:00 a.m. and will close at 10:00 p.m. (extended mall hours for Christmas). Last year, SM Cinema opened as early as 8am to give way for the annual Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF). Shoppers are expected to flock at SM malls to purchase gifts for their loved ones, shop or watch their favorite MMFF 2015 entries. For the shoppers who want to enjoy the luxury of avoiding traffic jams, mall schedule is very important. Most shoppers want to beat the deadline of giving gifts to their friends and family members. Thus, it would be better to get the gifts wrapped before Christmas.
