Dubbed as the country’s most colorful festival, the annual Masskara Festival in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental is a month-long celebration that aims to spread joy and delight to locals as well as tourists who flock to the City of Smiles to witness the numerous events and take part in the merrymaking.

The festival highlights are held every fourth Sunday of October. To celebrate, people wear smiling-faced masks, colorful costumes and bold and unique statement accessories as they parade in the streets of Bacolod.

As a way of paying homage to the Lady of Peñafrancia in Naga City in the Bicol region, PLDT powers up the Peñafrancia festival, one of the biggest religious and civic celebrations in the country.

PLDT and Smart have set up a consumer assistance booth at the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) grounds in Makati City in support of the DTI’s Consumer Assistance Booth Camp which runs from October 23 – 25.

PLDT brought the ultimate festival experience at the 34th Kadayawan Festival as it powered the whole city with the fastest broadband network. Through the efforts of its Community Relations (ComRel) Division and Home Marketing, PLDT was also the festival silver sponsor during the event. 

There is no doubt that this year’s MVP Olympics (MVPO) will be a good one. If last year’s MVPO taught us anything, it was one’s passion, determination, and drive that ultimately made PLDT bring back the crown as it was hailed once again as champions.
