Artists, music bands, and celebrities from all over the country visit the City of Smiles to make the people’s Masskara experience an unforgettable one. Wet raves, engaging games, and social events will be the main attraction during the last few days of this year’s Ruby Electric Masskara Festival.
This 2019, outstanding performances from artists, musicians, and celebrities will be brought to festival attendees by Headrush. Headrush is a Bacolod-based production that was behind big music festivals in Visayas, like Love Dance, San Miguel Oktoberfest, Laboracay, and more. The company started back in 2012 when its founders, who wanted to go from attending events and sneaking to meet artists to organizing their own music festival, collaborated with a local radio station. The rest is history. Now, Headrush has under its belt many successes in the industry of event productions.
This Masskara, the company collaborated with major sponsors and assigned diverse themes for each stage, and the result is a multi-staged music festival in the form of a three-day street party from October 25 to 27. The Lacson Tourism Strip will be filled with food kiosks and will have five stages that showcase exciting events and enthralling music. So wear your cutest outfit, gather your friends, and ready your rave accessories for these epic parties! Scroll down to read about each stage.
