Experience ‘Festivals Around the World’ in BGC Passionfest 2018

What: The World is Here: Festivals Around the World

When: December 1 and 2, 2018 | 11AM to 9PM 
Where: Bonifacio High Street

Gear up for a weekend of culture and passions in BGC!





On December 1 and 2, Bonifacio Global City will take everyone to the cultural celebrations of the world, and let them discover ways to live out their passions—whether it's arts, culture, food, music, dance, and more in this year’s BGC Passionfest with the theme The World is Here: Festivals Around the World.

The whole stretch of Bonifacio High Street will become more lively and colorful than ever as it recreates the vibe of four global destinations: our very own Philippines, Europe, Asia, and the United States with iconic decors such as banderitas, an Eiffel Tower installation, Chinese lanterns, and US flag-colored buntings. BHS will also host a wide selection of activities for guests to take part in—such as games, workshops, exhibits, and colorful cultural presentations.

With a Passionfest passport in hand, guests can take part in the various treats offered by each block, including a chance to grab some delightfully blended fruit juices from Filipino brand Locally; score fashionable pieces and unique finds at the bazaars of  Urban Pod, Mommy Mundo, and the Embassies of the Czech Republic  and Vietnam, among others; catch exhibits and a book launch, as well as witness loads of performances like a comic pantomime show, and short theatre plays; and even learn how to make loads of arts and crafts from the Katipunan Weekend Market. Meanwhile, guests looking for more action can navigate their way around a giant inflatable set courtesy of Color Manila, take part in bike sessions, or join rounds of fitness classes on kick aero boxing, yoga, and pilates led by Anytime Fitness.



There’s also a BGCitizen parade and concert to watch out for that will surely wow the crowd with performances from young, homegrown musicians such as the soulful acoustic performer Syd Hartha, the funky-energetic IV of Spades and indie folk band The Ransom Collective.

“We are anchoring this year’s BGC Passionfest activities on the festivals around the world because these are great sources of creativity and energy. Through this, we would like to influence others of this vibe, and inspire them to pursue their interests,” said Sean Luarca, BGC’s Marketing and Community Relations Head.
