“Christmas in the Marianas has been annual signature of the MVA for nearly two decades, providing a festive holiday celebration on Saturdays for both our visitors and our residents,” said MVA acting managing director Judy C. Torres. “This year, due to Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve both falling on a Saturday, we are extending our celebration one more night into January, which fits in nicely with the end of the Christmas season on Three Kings Day celebrated by many in our community this Sunday. We invite everyone to come out and enjoy Saturday’s festivities.”
Barbecue and more are served up by 10 food and drink vendors at the 18th Annual Christmas in the Marianas celebration at Garapan Fishing Base, Saipan.
