The annual Manila-based music and arts festival is back with Wanderland: The Comeback, and as a surprise for 11.11, they’ve begun slowly unveiling their artist lineup for the year’s performances. After the world went into pause for more than two years, and after dealing with online concerts via zoom, it’s all back. Festivals have resumed, and artists have scheduled world tours, even having already gone to the Philippines, Wanderland 2023 is the latest in the line of returns, set on March 4 and 5, 2023.
Just this November 10 on Instagram, they posted a teaser for the Wave 1 roster. 11 talents, 11 hints, none of which I’ve gotten right so far.
