Pioneering advertising agency Holmes Pollard & Stott (HP&S) celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. The agency that conceptualized and published Sri Lanka’s first Christmas magazine “Noel” recently released the 14th edition of the popular publication. In celebration of the Christmas spirit, “Noel” has been put together and released every year since 2001.
Expressing his views on this year’s edition, renowned media and creative personality Pradeep Amirthanayagam who is the Chairman and Managing Director of the agency said, “The idea of a Christmas magazine was first birthed by our creative team who wanted to have a dedicated publication for the season. Over the years “Noel” has brought to light many aspects of the season. Today, our readers wait in anticipation to see what the latest edition can add to the allure of Christmas.”
This year’s “Noel” magazine features a range of interesting articles about Christmas, capturing both its spiritual and secular aspects. These include mouthwatering seasonal recipes, stories, traditions, facts and trivia, poems, reminiscences, movies, fashions and a quiz where readers can win exciting gifts. It features the creative work of three Gratiaen Prize winners and other well-known writers.
“Noel” is very popular among young and old alike as it encompasses a good read for everyone. This magazine, which has been issued free for the past several years, will be available at churches and other prominent places in Colombo.
