Mohali 29th November:- A
tradition which began almost half a century ago in the USA has, over the years,
captured global imagination. Black Friday, the Friday after Thanksgiving, marks
the onset of the Christmas shopping season in the USA. This day of spending,
splurging and merry-making is an ode to Thanksgiving, a day in which people
give thanks for the blessings of the harvest. Over the years, shopkeepers and
sellers in America started offering discounts and offers on this day to add to
the people’s festivities and thus was born the phenomenon of the Black Friday
Sale.
Exploring the inherent connection
between Thanksgiving, the American harvest festival and the harvest
celebrations in Punjab post the winter harvest of Kharif crop, VR Punjab has
brought to the region the American tradition of the Black Friday Sale,
celebrated with Thanksgiving.
Today, Black Friday Sales are
celebrated across the world, with sales on this day offering customers massive
discounts and rewards. Bringing the concept of ‘Black Friday Sale’ to the
region, VR Punjab is inviting its patrons to shop till they drop & grab
some awesome deals. The region’s leading shopping and lifestyle destination, VR
Punjab is hosting its Black Friday Sale from Nov 29 to Dec 1, where people from
the region will get to avail massive discounts, going up to 70%, on 250+ brands
and 55+F&B outlets. This includes offers particularly from brands from
America the birthplace of the Black Friday Sale.
With the Black Friday Sale
traditionally associated with Christmas shopping, the sale also marks the onset
of VR Punjab’s Christmas celebrations with its Christmas Décor and 40ft High
Christmas Tree going live on 29th of November to coincide with
the launch of the sale. To announce the beginning of its Christmas festivities,
VR Punjab is organising a Christmas Tree lighting ceremony followed by Carol
signing.
The Black Friday marks the beginning
of a very opportune time of the year with people getting into the festive mode
as they look forward to celebrating Christmas and bringing in the New Year
amidst joy & happiness. It is that time when farmers in Punjab have
celebrated the winter harvest and are ready to enjoy the fruits of their
labour.
Along with the Black Friday Sale
being held from November 29 to December 1, 2019, VR Punjab is also hosting a
Kids Workshop on November 30 & December 1, where it will host Christmas
Tree Making and Gift Wrapping classes for children between 12.00 pm to 06.00 pm
on both these days.
