GATE M Dream Center creates “Winter Wonder Bund”, illuminating Shanghai’s new winter landmark
The supersized ice rink reopens, with international ice performances illuminating the riverside
With the carnival’s launch, the Christmas tree and dock lighting, supported by Lancôme, were illuminated. The highly anticipated 1,500 ㎡ outdoor ice rink—the largest in Shanghai—has officially opened to the public. This expansive ice surface, situated by the waterfront, adds a highly attractive recreational and entertainment option for winter leisure in Shanghai. Whether for family outings, friend gatherings, or couple dates, everyone can experience the unique charm of ice sports here.
From November 21st to 23, there was a Chinese premiere of the international ice stage show “Shine On Ice”. This performance brings together ice dance artists from seven countries, featuring Olympic athletes, Cirque du Soleil’s premier duo, and China’s new-generation athletes sharing the stage. By blending modern pop music with classic melodies, it creates an audio-visual feast with “Ice Broadway” quality, making ice art accessible to the public.
Every Weekend, Come and Enjoy Artistic Melodies around the Waterside
To enhance travelers’ immersion, the carnival has specially designed a dynamic touring route. The LANCÔME-sponsored Fantasy Tour Train will operate daily on a fixed schedule. The route traverses both the inner streets and open waterfront areas, connecting the northernmost ice rink with the southernmost silo. With approximately 40 minutes per ride, it offers visitors a unique movable viewing perspective.
Meanwhile, the carnival offers a rich array of performing arts activities. Immersive roaming performances by the Little Comma Drama will randomly appear in public spaces, enhancing interactive fun. The landmark dock has scheduled a series of high-quality outdoor concerts, featuring lineups including popular bands like NewBird and SoulPINK, a saxophone quintet, and a piano duet from the “Lang Lang Music World.” Combined with the natural river scenery, these create an open-air artistic venue. These performances run throughout the weekends, continuing the GATE M Dream Center’s artistic vitality and allowing every traveler to feel the warmth and delight of winter.
Inner Street Illuminations Warm the Winter, Merchants Jointly Celebrate Christmas Day
To create a winter atmosphere, the inner streets of the GATE M Dream Center have been cloaked in a luminous “coat.” Designed lights and decorations illuminate at night, bringing coziness and warmth to the cold winter evenings and significantly enhancing the travelers’ strolling experience.
Numerous tenants within the GATE M Dream Center have also started winter decorations, adorning their storefronts with colorful lights, Christmas trees, and festive elements to collectively create a warm and festive vibe. The merchants will also launch seasonal limited-edition products and promotional activities, coordinating with the “Winter Wonder Bund” theme to provide consumers with a one-stop winter shopping and traveling experience.
As an innovative reuse of industrial heritage, the GATE M Dream Center’s iconic silo will be transformed into the “Kaleidoscope” themed flower market. Inspired by the ever-changing patterns of a kaleidoscope, the market brings together a variety of offerings, including fresh flowers, plants, floral art creations, and pet supplies.
Multiple Merchants Offer Instant Tax Refunds for Overseas Travelers
In response to the upcoming winter travel peak, the GATE M Dream Center will officially establish a centralized Instant Tax Refund counter in December 2025 to enhance the shopping experience for international travelers.
Several stores within the GATE M Dream Center, including adidas Originals, CGX, PUMA, Lavas, and Columbia, will soon offer instant tax refund services, covering a wide range of products such as footwear, bags, clothes, perfumes, and fragrances. International travelers can complete the tax refund procedures at the customer service center before departure, with the option to receive refunds in cash or via credit card, which significantly simplifies the process.
Every winter at the Dream Center is worth remembering
From last year’s Winter Wonderland to this year’s Fantasy Journey, GATE M Dream Center continues to craft unique winter memories for the city with its relentless creativity, continuously providing new energy and imagination to urban life. The “Winter Wonder Bund” brings together world-class performance resources, creates iconic leisure facilities, and fosters an immersive artistic atmosphere with festive surroundings, transforming the waterfront space into a vibrant urban winter lounge filled with joy and vitality.
This winter, please visit the GATE M Dream Center, have fun on the ice rink, enjoy the music and lights, and start a one-of-a-kind fantasy waterside adventure.

Zoho Corporation Surpasses One Million Paying Organisations as Customers
On its 30th Anniversary, Zoho Corporation exceeds milestone of 150 million users
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 March 2026 – Zoho Corporation, a global technology company, today marked its 30th anniversary with the announcement of two major company milestones. Zoho Corporation, consisting of Zoho, ManageEngine, Qntrl, and TrainerCentral, is now a trusted technology provider to more than one million paying customers and more than 150 million users globally. Today’s announcement follows significant YoY customer (32%) and revenue (20%) growth in 2025.
Zoho Corporation would foremost like to thank every one of its customers, big and small, whose loyalty and support has had an outsized impact on the company’s foundation, growth, and future success. To honor that commitment, Zoho Corporation is shining a light on a few dedicated customers, whose success it is proud to have helped support.
“‘What made us stick with Zoho for so long is consistency and trust. Zoho continues to invest in its platform with a clear long-term vision, not short-term trends. The products are stable, well integrated, and designed to support real business needs, which allows us to confidently recommend Zoho to our clients year after year,” said Alexon Garcia, Technical Delivery Manager, Devtac, Philippines. “As Zoho turns 30, we would like to thank the people building the products. Your focus on privacy, value, and practical innovation truly sets Zoho apart in the market. It shows that the company is built for the long run and not driven by hype.”
“For almost a decade of using Zoho Desk and Zoho SalesIQ, we have seen a huge improvement in the way we handle tickets and access reports, enabling our team to make faster, data-driven decisions. Over time, Zoho has naturally become an integral part of our daily operations because it is easy to use, reasonably priced, and continues to evolve based on real feedback from its users. A big thank you to the Zoho team for building such a powerful SaaS platform—we look forward to continuing to grow together in the years to come,” said Wildan Zubaidi, VP of Customer Experience, PT Biznet Gio Nusantara, Indonesia.
“During periods of rapid business expansion and operational complexity, particularly when organizations needed to move from fragmented systems to integrated digital platforms, Zoho played a critical role. Solutions such as Zoho CRM, Creator, Analytics, and Finance applications enabled faster decision-making, improved visibility, and operational resilience, especially during times of disruption and digital transformation. These moments reinforced Zoho’s value not just as a software provider, but as a strategic enabler,” said Henry Soo, Founder, DataDevelop Consulting Ltd., Hong Kong.
Recent customers to Zoho Corporation include: In the United States, Rapid Response Monitoring and Synergy Home Care; In India, Mercedes-Benz India, Force Motors, Joyalukkas and Union Bank of India; in the UK/European Union, Flora Food Group, Handl Tyrol and Atout France; in Middle East-Africa, Al-Ahli Saudi FC and Al Qadsiah FC; in LATAM, Grupo Gonher; and in Brazil, Creditas and Editora Globo.
“Being bootstrapped, private, and built entirely in-house makes Zoho an outlier among competitors,” says Sridhar Vembu, Co-founder and Chief Scientist, Zoho Corporation. “But vendors don’t need our help, businesses do, which is why delivering customer value has, for 30 years, been Zoho Corporation’s North Star. Before any innovation, strategy, or guiding principle becomes a product, pivot, or policy, it must first affirm the question, ‘Will this help businesses?’ We are incredibly grateful that companies around the world have responded so positively to our customer-first approach over the past three decades, and will continue to meet the evolving needs of businesses with powerful, scalable, and affordable solutions.”
