BGC Passionfest 2018 Presents ‘Festivals Around the World’
Gear up this
weekend as Bonifacio Global City will take you to the cultural celebrations of
the world, and let you discover ways to live out your passions—whether it's
arts, culture, food, music, dance, and more in this year’s BGC
Passionfest with the theme The World is
Here: Festivals Around the World happening this December 1 and 2, 2018.
The whole stretch
of Bonifacio High Street will become more lively and colorful than ever as it
recreates the vibe of four global destinations: our very own Philippines,
Europe, Asia, and the United States with iconic decors such as banderitas, an
Eiffel Tower installation, Chinese lanterns, and US flag-colored buntings. BHS
will also host a wide selection of activities for guests to take part in—such
as games, workshops, exhibits, and colorful cultural presentations.
With a Passionfest
passport in hand, guests can take part in the various
treats offered by each block, including a chance to grab some delightfully
blended fruit juices from Filipino brand Locally; score fashionable pieces and
unique finds at the bazaars of Urban
Pod, Mommy Mundo, and the Embassies of the Czech Republic and Vietnam, among others; catch exhibits and
a book launch, as well as witness loads of performances like a comic pantomime
show, and short theatre plays; and even learn how to make loads of arts and
crafts from the Katipunan Weekend Market. Meanwhile, guests looking for more
action can navigate their way around a giant inflatable set courtesy of Color Manila,
take part in bike sessions, or join rounds of fitness classes on kick aero
boxing, yoga, and pilates led by Anytime Fitness.
There’s also a BGCitizen
parade and concert to watch out for that will surely wow the crowd with
performances from young, homegrown musicians such as the soulful acoustic
performer Syd Hartha, the
funky-energetic IV of Spades and
indie folk band The Ransom Collective.
“We are anchoring this
year’s BGC Passionfest activities on the festivals around the world because
these are great sources of creativity and energy. Through this, we would like
to influence others of this vibe, and inspire them to pursue their interests,”
said Sean Luarca, BGC’s Marketing and Community
Relations Head.
