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.

The country's biggest digital entertainment platform is back at it, with the grandest music festival of the year, "Swing for Filipino Sports Dream" sponsored by BingoPlus, wrapping up on October 25, 2025 at the ASEANA City Open Grounds.

The festival's star-studded lineup ignited tremendous and electric energy, as both worldwide and local giants took the stage and pumped up the crowd. Norwegian DJ Alan Walker and Filipino icon Apl.de.Ap of the Black Eyed Peas headlined the event, raising the energy level to new heights.

“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

Furthermore, Geir Michalsen, Deputy Head of Mission at the Norwegian Embassy in Manila, gave an enthusiastic introduction, emphasizing Norway's rich culture and scenic places while urging stronger tourist and cultural connections between Norway and the Philippines. He then prepared the audience for the performance of his fellow Norwegian, DJ Alan Walker.

GameZone promoted several issues through its online channels, raising awareness and encouraging public participation.  From poignant remarks exchanged online to the enthusiasm of those who visited the Aseana Music Festival, which featured performances by Alan Walker, Apl.de.Ap, Bamboo, and many others, the campaign encouraged solidarity and the spirit of bayanihan in Filipino gamers and music enthusiasts alike.

The event concluded in a night of celebration, representing months of planning, collaboration, and compassion—proof that true success comes not only from accomplishment but also from giving back.

BingoPlus Foundation continues its objective to reach neglected communities, while GameZone strengthens its commitment to collaborating with groups who share a same purpose of assisting people.  Together, both organizations demonstrate that beauty is not just found in the games we play, but also in the lives we touch.

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.
