BingoPlus sets the stage ablaze with the ultimate music fest to unite sports and entertainment

Beyond golf and entertainment, the International Series Philippines presented by BingoPlus, empowered Philippine sports and athletes.

With the conclusion of the largest music festival of the year, "Swing for Filipino Sports Dream," sponsored by International Series Philippines presented by BingoPlus, at the ASEANA City Open Grounds on October 25, 2025, the nation's top digital entertainment platform is back at it again.

Massive and explosive energy was generated by the festival's stellar lineup, as both local and international icons energized the audience.  The event's atmosphere was elevated to new heights by the appearance of Norwegian DJ Alan Walker and Filipino icon Apl.de.Ap of the Black Eyed Peas.

Bamboo, Parokya ni Edgar, Urbandub, Lily (formerly known as Callalily), Sandwich, and more were added to the schedule. EDM musicians DJ Kiara, Arthur Tan, Hoest, and others also performed amazing performances. The event was made much more memorable by the magnificent stage design, amazing fireworks, and dynamic lighting.

At the music festival press conference, invited media also had the chance to interview the featured artists.  The International Series was brought to the nation in large part thanks to BingoPlus, for which the guest performers were grateful. Additionally, they expressed how thrilled they were to be performing at such a distinguished occasion.

“What I hope everyone would go home with is a sense of joy in their time going to the festival — not just for my part but for others in the line-up. I think the most important thing for me is that they go home feeling good.” ~Alan Walker

A lively introduction was also given by Geir Michalsen, Deputy Head of Mission at the Norwegian Embassy in Manila, who promoted greater travel and cultural exchanges between Norway and the Philippines while showcasing Norway's dynamic culture and picturesque locations.  After that, he got the audience excited for his fellow Norwegian DJ Alan Walker's appearance.

As we conclude this milestone event, marked by such a grand and popular tournament, we want the ISP experience to end in true BingoPlus fashion — fun, entertaining, and memorable.” ~Mr. Jasper Vicencio, President of BingoPlus

Moreover, attendees were treated to delightful merchandise, engaging booths from BingoPlus, the BingoPlus Foundation, ArenaPlus and GameZone, and free snacks, plus a raffle with a prize pool of five million pesos (₱5,000,000) in cash. Mr. Vicencio led the raffle draw, announcing the lucky winners. 100 participants took home ten thousand pesos (₱10,000) each, while four became instant millionaires, winning one million pesos (₱1,000,000) apiece.

The event's contribution handover was another highlight, as the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) received eight million pesos (₱8,000,000) from International Series Philippines, BingoPlus, and its social development arm, the BingoPlus Foundation.  This program advances the organization's goal of empowering local sports and promoting Filipino talent and expertise to a global audience.

GameZone Donates ₱1 Million for various Charity

One of the biggest PVP entertainment platforms in the Philippines, GameZone, demonstrated once more that purpose and entertainment can coexist.  During the "Swing for Filipino Sports Dream" Music Festival, GameZone partnered with the BingoPlus Foundation to donate ₱1 million to help a number of national philanthropic causes.

This collaboration is in line with GameZone's philosophy of fostering Ganda via charity, turning competitiveness and enjoyment into positive forces.  The ₱1 million donation will go toward community development, education, and youth care, among other important projects that improve communities and provide assistance to Filipinos in need.

GameZone raised awareness of these issues and promoted public involvement by leveraging its online platforms.  With the help of moving words posted online and the enthusiasm of attendees at the Music Festival in Aseana, which included performances by Alan Walker, Apl.de.Ap, Bamboo, and many more, the campaign encouraged solidarity and the spirit of bayanihan among Filipino gamers and music lovers.

The event ended with a night of celebration, signifying months of planning, teamwork, and kindness—evidence that real success stems from both accomplishment and service.

The BingoPlus Foundation is still working to reach underprivileged communities, and GameZone is reaffirming its dedication to collaborating with groups that have similar humanitarian objectives.  When combined, these organizations show that beauty is found in the lives we touch as well as in the games we play.

At GameZone, we believe gaming should always be fun, fair, and responsible. We encourage our community to play for enjoyment, not as a source of income. Gambling is not an acceptable way of livelihood, and it does not solve financial problems. To learn more about GameZone’s initiatives, visit gzone.ph.
