description of the event

In December 2024, Mara Studio delivered an immersive New Year celebration for a global tech company in Cyprus, bringing together 443 guests — 362 adults and 81 children — for a holiday experience full of contrasts, surprises, and shared joy. Set at the Monte Caputo venue, the concept placed participants inside Santa’s house — with one unexpected twist: the mischievous Grinch had broken in, stirring up festive chaos. The space was divided into two immersive zones, giving guests the freedom to choose their own vibe. The Santa Zone embraced classic Christmas magic: cozy, warm, and familiar. In contrast, the Grinch Zone leaned into playful rebellion — bright, bold, and unexpected. This duality created a dynamic environment where everyone could celebrate on their own terms. To ensure a family-friendly experience, a transparent bubble-shaped kids’ zone was placed outside the main venue. Inside, children enjoyed a world of Christmas cheer, guided by professional animators and packed with themed workshops and hands-on holiday fun. Meanwhile, adults explored Santa’s world indoors, participating in festive activities designed to “help Santa save Christmas from the Grinch.” The highlight of the evening was a spectacular Cirque du Soleil-style show program, followed by a high-energy karaoke battle between two teams — a crowd favorite that got everyone involved. Mara Studio took care of the full event cycle: creative concept, scriptwriting, art direction, program development, artist booking, banquet and technical management, contractor coordination, project decomposition, and logistics. Our design team delivered a cohesive visual identity, while our production crew captured every moment through reportage photography and a vibrant event movie.
