Ceylinco Life hosted its most valued policyholders and their families to an exclusive viewing experience of the Kandy Esala Perahera, organised by the Company’s Customer Relations Division as part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen relationships with its premium clientele.
Held at the Ceylinco Life Kandy Branch on King Street, the annual event coincided with the second Randoli Perahera, giving guests an opportunity to experience one of Sri Lanka’s most celebrated cultural traditions from a prime vantage point.
An Exclusive Perahera Experience
As the majestic procession made its way through the streets of Kandy, guests enjoyed VIP seating that offered an up-close view of the vibrant colours, movement and grandeur of the Perahera.
The evening provided Ceylinco Life with an opportunity to express its appreciation to its premium policyholders while creating a memorable experience for them and their families.
The occasion extended beyond the Perahera itself, with guests welcomed with evening refreshments followed by an exclusive dinner buffet prepared by Amaya Hills Resort.
Celebrating Families and Relationships
Families remained at the heart of the event, with a private movie theatre experience providing entertainment for both children and adults. Each attending family also received a beautifully framed family photograph as a personalised keepsake, capturing a shared moment against the backdrop of one of Sri Lanka’s most cherished cultural celebrations.
Beyond providing an exclusive opportunity to witness the Kandy Perahera, the event served as an expression of appreciation for Ceylinco Life’s valued policyholders.
Through its ongoing Customer Relationship Management initiatives, Ceylinco Life continues to create experiences that recognise its premium customers not merely as policyholders, but as valued relationships that the Company seeks to celebrate and nurture.
