The cliffhanger is over, folks. 88rising has finally dropped their Head In The Clouds (HITC) Manila roster today.
After inviting the Philippines to “play” on Aug. 8, the Asian-centric music collective left fans hypothesizing on the lineup of their much-awaited music and arts festival, happening on Dec. 9 to 10 at the SM Festival Grounds in Parañaque City. Now, we finally have a list.
It comes as a complete pre-packaged Christmas treat as you’d expect with the likes of Joji, Jackson Wang, NIKI, and Rich Brian (among others), setting the gold standard for post-pandemic music festivals. Another bonus is the special appearance of Grammy-winning DJ/producer Zedd to mix things up.
The festival’s Philippine stage will also feature our favorite local artists Zack Tabudlo, GUAPDAD 4000, Manila Grey, and former Scout cover star Ylona Garcia. “Excited na ba kayo ?!?!!?!” the young singer-songwriter asked on her socials.
Does this seal the deal for you? Tickets will go on sale on Oct. 5, with two-day VIP passes priced at ₱15,888, while the two-day GA passes are at ₱12,888.
