Sinulog shines brighter with music festival

The revelry in the country continues as Cebu celebrates Sinulog festival with colorful activities, curated culinary experience and music fest featuring international and local acts. 

On January 16, the Cebu International Convention Center grounds in Mandaue City will groove to the beat of former Swedish House Mafia member, DJ Steve Angello, as he performs a two-hour set at the Plus63 Music Festival. Taking inspiration from California’s Coachella and Berlin’s Lollapalooza festival, Plus63 Music Festival seeks to bring the best music experience with a local twist. Aside from music, the best of the Philippines’ hospitality and cuisine take center stage.

The music festival in the Queen City of the South is headed by balikbayan Peter Delantar who has worked in popular stages and venues and alongside artists such as Ice T and Coco, The Weeknd, Pharell Williams, Jabbawockeez, Miguel, Big Boi of Outkast, Jay Sean, Keri Hilson and more. 

 As Delantar sought to bring the Coachella-experience to Cebu, he is tapping Angello, whose rise to international fame came when he released his remix of Eurythmics’ “Sweet Dreams” in late 2004. The upcoming performance is the first time for Angello in the Philippines and is his only show in Asia. Plus63 Music Festival is also bringing Angello’s lighting and production team, to take the experience to a whole new level.

Adding local flair and flavor to the event are world-class Pinoy talents and Cebu’s homegrown artists including Sirens, Faspitch and Powerspoonz. The Zombettes, which is composed of DJs and models Sanya Smith and Ornussa Cadness, and other DJs coming over from Manila complete the lineup. 

With his extensive experience attending and working at various music festivals and with a promising lineup, Delantar is confident Plus63 Music Festival will bring the same experience to the Philippines. 

With his experience and expertise in the US entertainment industry, Vinyl Entertainment founder Peter Delantar brings to the Philippines a music festival that features local and international talents

“A music festival is about discovering new music and musical acts, exploring art installations, tasting unique dishes from local chefs and restaurateurs, while making new friends in the process. We also want to provide a venue where our local acts can share the stage with international bands and DJs, while making this unique experience affordable and truly enjoyable,” shares Delantar.

Ticket prices range from P530 to P1,600.
