QUEZON CITY, Philippines – Blogapalooza, the biggest business to blogger event in the Philippines successfully returns for its fifth year at Centris, Quezon City.
Hundreds of bloggers gathered to meet industry leaders and established personalities while interacting with various brands in a fun-filled event.
What happens in Blogapalooza stays in Blogapalooza, but in case you missed it, don’t worry – Managing Director Ace Gapuz tells us that Blogapalooza will be back in November, so hang in there!
In the meantime, check out some of the most memorable moments from Blogapalooza 2016 – Horizons:
1. Easy and painless registration
Registration was smooth as butter thanks to the folks from TAG. The queue was quick even though you had to register a second time once you got in.
The event was open walk-ins until 3PM, meaning you could still go in even if you were not able to pre-register online.
Kudos to Danica Alagon and the registration team for handling this part well!
2. Meet your celebrity crush
If anything, Blogapalooza allows you to get up close and personal with your favorite online personalities. Here’s Vannah Pacis of Jam 88.3 and Bianca Guidotti from Miss International 2014 sharing a “moment”:
Now here’s Vannah sharing a moment with the audience … (the audience was having a moment with the handsome Mikael Daez and the lovely Erika Padilla):
You can even “crush” your crush … with love, of course. Here’s the dashing Lloyd Cadena getting tons of love (and selfies) from fans:
What do you think of this lovely couple from Arla?
3. See and experience new (and sometimes unexpected) things
It’s never boring at Blogapalooza where every business has their own treat for booth visitors.
Take, for example, this game where you have to transfer peanuts using chopsticks from one bowl to another:
Can you use a balloon to blow down these empty Gold Stack cans?
How about this Happy Fresh mascot looking oh-so-yummy? Though we suspect he’s really a “Poring” from the online game Ragnarok.
How about having fresh, rum-spiked BJ as in, buko juice! (hi MTRCB)
4. You will not go home empty-handed
Although connecting with new businesses and meeting new people is a prize in itself, at the end of the day, everyone is a winner – you will not go home empty-handed at Blogapalooza!
From free rice meals and iced tea …
How about free pizza from these hazard suit-wearing folks over at Megawatt?
Try and bring home new scents from Chemworld Fragrance Factory:
Lucky bloggers even got treated to free 100 pcs business cards from Speedycards.PH / Alfox Printing Services!
Beauty bloggers must not miss this free consultation from SkinStation:
Really, there are just way too many giveaways, games, and raffle prizes that you can only go home with a smile.
Blogapalooza is not just about receiving, it’s also about giving back – how about adopting a child from World Vision Philippines?
Congratulations, Blogapalooza Team for a job well done – see you in November!
