BingoPlus Adds Smiles to MassKara Festival Celebration with Bacolod Yuhum Foundation Team-Up

BINGOPLUS MASKARA FESTIVAL

Bacolod City, Negros Occidental - BingoPlus, the first live streaming bingo in the Philippines, added more life and gaiety to Bacolod’s MassKara Festival, one of the country’s biggest festivals that came back with a vengeance after an absence of two years.

From October 1 to 23, BingoPlus was in the mainstream of the celebrations as sponsor of the Festival. With the celebration theme of “Balik Yuhum” (comeback), BingoPlus joined hands with the Bacolod Yuhum Foundation to pull out all the stops in staging a memorable and super-fun return to revelry in Bacolod City.

BingoPlus brought its signature feel-good mission to the month-long celebration of food festivals, beauty pageants, concerts, racing competitions, football games, and dance contests capped by a colorful, glittering night parade and street party, making this a Festival to remember for a long, long time.

The brand’s presence was felt in major events such as the Electric MassKara, the MassKara Street Dance & Arena Competition, the Miss Bacolod MassKara beauty pageant, and the Dance Off Competition. The competition where participants donned colorful costumes and smiling masks while dancing to festive music was the highlight of the Festival.

From October 1 to 22 BingoPlus also ran the MassKara Raffle Campaign and awarded Php100,000, Php 75,000, and Php 25,000 to lucky winners.

The annual festival, first held in 1980, showcased the Bacolodnon’s joyful spirit and creative talents. MassKara made Bacolod the “City of Smiles”, which became a catalyst for the city’s development in tourism, crafts, arts, and services. It eventually became one of the major annual tourist attractions of the Philippines.

“We see the passion shared by MassKara and BingoPlus in bringing entertainment that gives rewarding experiences and added value to participants and audiences,” said Jasper Vicencio, AB Leisure Exponent Inc. (ABLE) President. “It is for this reason that we find our support of Masskara as a very meaningful CSR initiative for BingoPlus.”

Since its launch, BingoPlus has supported numerous local talents and sports events. It is the official bingo partner of the PBA’s 47th season, and is the official gaming partner of the Premiere Volleyball League.

In September, Bingo Plus held BingoPlus Day, an online celebration for its loyal supporters where Maine Mendoza was introduced as its newest celebrity endorser who will work alongside its first endorser, the most sought-after host, Luis Manzano.

BingoPlus also plans to grant scholarships to lucky dreamers who will be given a chance to take a technical course in one of the schools in Metro Manila.

BingoPlus is licensed by Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) and the flagship brand of Leisure & Resorts World Corporation (LRWC)’s subsidiary, AB Leisure Exponent Inc. (ABLE).

Join us at PISTA NG PAMANA this May 27-June 2, 2019!


The HUB Make Lab family initiates and invites you to take part and take pride in this heartfelt showcase of the many rich facets of Filipino heritage—from art, literature, design, architecture, music, performance, food, fashion and celebration!

The historic commercial district of Escolta functions as an inclusive access point and a living case study of how modern urban lifestyle affects our cultural heritage. As everyday stakeholders and longtime community organizers in Escolta, we asked ourselves: how do we make the appreciation of Philippine heritage more meaningful and relatable to a broader audience. How do we bring the focus of people back to it and deepen its meaning to our audience at Escolta events. The end result is the Pista ng Pamana celebrations which is a heritage-first celebration that we plan to organise annually.

As heritage is enriched through a cycle of understanding, valuing, preserving and enjoyment, our community of makers and artists cultivate this cycle through exhibits, performances, screenings, talks and workshops.

After three years that the HUB Make Lab has opened, we are broadening the view beyond our neighbourhood. Our aim for PISTA NG PAMANA is to make celebrations in the neighbourhood more meaningful, educational, and to be a beacon for future generations, highlighting the importance of preserving our country's tangible and intangible treasures. All together, we at the HUB Make Lab believe, these serve as the foundation for rebuilding and strengthening the Filipino spirit.

This celebration is a free public event which gathers experts and enthusiasts of different practices. It is a toast to the third anniversary of our maker community—HUB Make Lab, and a complement to the NCCA’s lineup of activities in museums, galleries, universities, and government institutions.

Celebrate with Escolta, the queen of Manila streets, and the HUB Make Lab as we close National Heritage Month in style - #letsshapeourculture, #letsmakeitmeaningful, and #letsmakeourhistory together!
