This past Saturday, December 21, 2024, Coral’s Jounieh Highway location lit up with the dazzling glow of holiday cheer. At 8:30 PM, despite the rainy weather, a vibrant crowd gathered to experience a Christmas event unlike any other. The star attractions? Decorated cars from the FROSTY RIDES community, a group of auto enthusiasts known for their passion and creativity.
A Parade of Festive Wheels
The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the dazzling display of vehicles from FROSTY RIDES, a trend that in recent years has grown popular in the West. Coral invited these enthusiasts to participate in the event, and they didn’t disappoint. Each car was a spectacle of Christmas cheer, adorned with twinkling lights, ornaments and imaginative decorations that turned the station into a scene straight out of a holiday movie.
Adding to the festive atmosphere was one of Coral’s own vintage fuel trucks, beautifully decorated with Christmas lights. It stood as a glowing reminder of Coral’s heritage and its ability to adapt tradition into something magical and modern.
Music, Dancing and Merry Vibes
To keep the energy high, DJ Modjo spun festive tunes that had the crowd dancing and singing along as many attendees captured the joy on their phones, sharing it with their followers and ensuring the festive vibes extended far beyond the station’s boundaries.
Contest of Creativity
In the spirit of friendly competition, Coral held a contest to crown the best-decorated cars. The jury comrpised of none other than comedian Farid Hobeiche (Farix) as well as a Coral represenbtative, had the tough job of selecting the winners from the stunning entries. The chosen few didn’t just walk away with bragging rights; they also received free gasoline, lube changes and car washes for an entire month. Meanwhile, every participant was rewarded with a thoughtfully curated gift basket, ensuring everyone left with a piece of holiday cheer.
Lebanese Spirit Shines Bright
Even as rain drizzled over the event, attendees embraced the celebration with unyielding enthusiasm. As we look ahead to a new year, let this event remind us that the simplest joys – a car adorned with lights, the sound of laughter on a rainy evening, the warmth of community – can light up our lives in extraordinary ways. Coral’s Christmas celebration went beyond a mere event; it was a testament to the enduring Lebanese spirit and the power of community.
