Thousands gathered over the weekend for fun and exciting activities Globe held for its highly anticipated 917 #ExtraGDayEveryday, the biggest GDay celebration yet.
Events were held at the Circuit Events Ground Makati and the Enchanted Kingdom in Sta. Rosa City on 917 days, 17 September without adverse incident except for apparent attempts to jam mobile signals at both venues.
"Our 917 GDay this year marked the first time we had many on-ground events, and we are glad that our customers went out to participate in them. We wanted to pursue face-to-face events, which we have been missing since the pandemic. We are only too happy that our customers found time to enjoy the festivities," said Jerome Patalud, Head of Globe Rewards.
The GMusic Fest drew thousands of spectators at Circuit Events Ground Makati for a day of great music and fun at experiential booths, bringing home Globe freebies and new memories.
Over 6,000 spectators came for the half-day event, staying throughout the show to enjoy the lineup of world-class artists Globe brought together to regale its valued customers.
Enjoying the GMusic Fest was Kathlyn Guinto, a Globe customer for 15 years now. On Twitter, she raved about seeing Thai singer Phum Viphurit and the "queens" from Drag Race Philippines.
"It was my first time watching Phum Viphurit perform live. Finally! WOW. WOW. WOW…. Thank you for bringing them here, Globe!" she said in her post, adding the event hashtag #GMusicFest.
Guinto, who came to the event with her sister, said seeing the Drag Race PH contestants was "the icing on top" as she is an avid show fan.
"My sister and I had so much fun amidst the rain. It was an unforgettable event, considering it was my first concert/music fest since the pandemic. Thankful to Globe for bringing these artists together," she said.
G Music Fest also featured K-Pop group bugAboo, whose G Music Fest appearance was their first time performing live in the Philippines, and top Filipino acts such as KAIA, Matthaios, The Juans, Unique Salonga and I Belong to the Zoo.
Festival goers were also safely ferried in and out of the venue through free rides on GET electric buses deployed for the event.
The music fest got positive reviews from the audience when asked what they thought of the event, with the majority saying they enjoyed the musical performances the most, rating the event as a 10.
Meanwhile, over in Sta. Rosa, Globe led a successful and purposeful celebration with valued partner clients and customers. At the #MagicalGDay event, Globe treated guests to fun rides and exciting booths featuring partner brands. Trivia games and raffle prizes made the day extra special.
