In celebration of Earth Day this April, Dusit Thani Manila is rolling out a vibrant and thoughtfully curated lineup of experiences that champion sustainability, community engagement, and a deeper connection with our planet. This initiative not only highlights the hotel’s commitment to environmental stewardship but also invites guests to participate in meaningful activities that foster a sense of community and responsibility.
At the heart of this celebration is The Green Circle Market, an eco-conscious marketplace set to take place in the hotel lobby on April 18 and 19 from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Open to all guests with free admission, this market brings together a diverse community of brands dedicated to ethical sourcing, local craftsmanship, wellness, and environmental responsibility. It’s a fantastic opportunity for guests to explore and support businesses that align with sustainable practices.
The Green Circle is more than just a market; it represents a movement towards mindful living. It gathers purpose-driven merchants who advocate for sustainable practices and conscious consumerism. Among the featured participants is Eco Shift, a brand known for its handmade, plastic-free personal care essentials crafted by Filipino women. Another highlight is Sip & Tell Café, an artisanal coffee shop based in Quezon City that offers locally rooted brews, allowing guests to savor the rich flavors of Philippine coffee. Additionally, Pili Ani, a proudly Filipino skincare brand, will showcase its premium products made from sustainably sourced Pili and Elemi oils, emphasizing the importance of natural ingredients in beauty routines.
Joining the lineup is Physiaré, which specializes in clinically guided physical therapy and rehabilitation services aimed at restoring movement and enhancing overall well-being. Guests can also explore wellness retail products from Devarana Spa, inspired by traditional Thai healing practices. The Pantry, the hotel’s culinary hub, will showcase freshly baked goods crafted by Dusit Thani Manila’s talented culinary team, using thoughtfully sourced ingredients that reflect a commitment to quality and sustainability.
Through The Green Circle Market, guests become more than just visitors; they become part of a growing community dedicated to conscious living. Every small choice made at the market contributes to a larger impact, fostering a culture of sustainability and awareness.
Complementing this initiative is “Under One Sky: Poolside Stargazing,” a unique evening experience scheduled for April 22. Priced at ₱2,500 per person, this event offers guests an immersive journey through the night sky, guided by astronomy experts from the Philippine Astronomical Society (PAS). Held from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, the experience blends science, serenity, and wonder in a relaxing poolside setting, making it a perfect way to unwind while deepening one’s appreciation for the universe.
The evening will also feature a curated photo exhibit, showcasing stunning visuals that celebrate the beauty of our planet. In the event of unfavorable weather conditions, the program will seamlessly transition into engaging astronomy discussions led by experts, ensuring that guests still enjoy an enriching experience. Light snacks and refreshments will be served, and educational materials along with astronomy-themed merchandise will be available for purchase, allowing guests to take a piece of the experience home with them.
Through these Earth Month initiatives, Dusit Thani Manila invites guests to slow down, reconnect with nature, and embrace sustainability—not merely as a concept, but as a shared way of life. This celebration of Earth Day serves as a reminder of the importance of community, mindfulness, and our collective responsibility to protect the planet.
