The Bacolod MassKara Festival theme song 2023 promises a Bigger and Brighter event

Bacolod MassKara Festival season is fast approaching and boy, the new logo and theme song has been launched ahead already to drum up the popular October Festivity. The new song entitled SINADYA sa BACOLOD (Fun in Bacolod), composed and arranged by Neocolors  musical director and arranger  Marvin Querido. is one great song that brings fresh contemporary vibes compared to the classic music of the annuale vent of yesteryears. The singers are Kyle Echarri, Janeena Chan and Anthony Rosaldo.

The lyrics include the new slogan of the Bacolod which is SUPERCITY  plus a mix of hiligaynon and tagalog spilled  along the English lines. Indeed, it obviously tries to magnet foreign tourists far and wide without losing the local spirit through lyrics that is playful, easy to remember and meaningful. Last year's BALIK YUHUM theme song sang by Darren Espanto, was influenced by the fact that MassKara Festival needs to bring back the smiles of the people after a the devastating effects of Covid-19 in the local economy. This year seems to be different as the song hinted a bigger and brighter event. 

Here is a lyrics visualizer of Bacolod MassKara Festival 2023: 

The Biggest LANDERS to date is in BACOLOD - Let's TOUR INSIDE

 
After many delays due to unforgiving weather, LANDERS SUPERSTORE finally opened its biggest branch in the PHILIPPINES. The branch is also the first ever branch in Western Visayas.  People in Negros particularly from Metropolitan Bacolod were so excited during the opening the day, that a large influx of shoppers were already early in the area. 
Inside one is greeted with a high ceiling building with array of products. Placement the barbershop, pharmacy, membership card office, Lander Station restaurant and Cafe are carefully planned to hold lots of shoppers during their popular Piso Sale days.
What we did was wait for the hype to die down so we can really appreciate each corner of the Superstore. The massive attendance during the opening week, was a challenge not only for the shoppers but also for the employees as well. The long lines are evident as people were waiting not only in one single line.
Landers Superstore Bacolod is strategically located within the premises of MEGAWORLD's The Upper East. Beside its massive building, it has a Caltex Gasoline Station as part of its membership card's tool to get motorists who wanted great deals and perks.

Here's a video of LANDERS BACOLOD from Day 1 of construction to the opening and a few days after the hype died down.
