MANILA, Philippines – Since 2013, Wanderland Festival has been treating Filipinos to two jam-packed days of art and music each year. Now dubbed the premier music festival, Wanderland sees an annual attendee turnout of over 22,000.
There are only around two weeks to go until the 2024 edition finally kicks off from March 9 to 10 at the Filinvest City Event Grounds in Muntinlupa City. This year’s Wanderland will only be the second after pandemic restrictions have eased, so attendees can expect to experience the thrill of the festival in full force.
Here’s a closer look at what to expect at Wanderland 2024:
Organized by Karpos Multimedia, Wanderland takes on a different theme each year, with the 2023 edition aptly being named “The Comeback” to mark the festival’s return after a three-year hiatus.
This year’s theme is “Neighborhood.” With the festival now in its ninth year, it has already evolved into a home for its attendees to form a familiar, tight-knit community from their shared love of music and art. With this, Wanderland also serves as a space for old friends to catch up and for new friendships to be formed – just like that of a real-life neighborhood.
It’s not Wanderland without great music. Festival-goers can expect to see 11 different acts on each day of the two-day event, which boasts a solid roster of both local and international performers from all kinds of genres. Here’s a list of all the performers you can expect to jam out to during the festival, along with our top picks from each of the acts’ discographies.
