The countdown is on as MassKara Festival 2025 prepares to make history on Oct. 1 with its first-ever dual stage opening at two iconic venues: the Bacolod Government Center (BGC) grounds and at the Bacolod Public Plaza.
Festival organizers also confirmed that OPM sensation Silent Sanctuary will headline the kickoff at the BGC stage, while Repakol Band will take center stage at the public plaza, treating festivalgoers to their signature mix of heartfelt anthems and string-driven rock.
Festival director Rodney Mitz Ascalon said the dual venues reflect the growing spirit of MassKara as a people’s festival.
“We are bringing MassKara closer to the people. By opening at both the Government Center and the plaza, we make sure that everyone can take part in the grand celebration,” Ascalon said in a press release Sept. 26.
Additional artists and stars headlining the grand opening will be revealed over the weekend, keeping fans on the lookout for the next big announcement.
The Oct. 1 dual-venue opening will mark the start of 19-day calendar of concerts, competitions, cultural events, and the world-famous MassKara street and arena dance showdown. ||
