This unique event celebrates cultural diversity through a trade show with exciting features and attractions, and once again it will open its gates at One Esplanade SM Central Business Park this coming weekend, February 4, 2017. A press conference was held recently at The Plantation Bar in Makati to unveil the many great things in store for all attendees.
Halloween 2015
People would be surprised that just several years ago, Filipinos didn’t pay much attention to Halloween. Now it’s near mandatory for offices, malls and other establishments to have some form of event or attraction or party for it.

Well, we guess that any occasion where kids (and adults of course) can get dressed up as scary or strange costumes and get free candy can’t be so bad.
