MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Get ready for a sensational collision of music, gaming, and pop culture as the highly anticipated &FRIENDS Festival debuts in Manila. Slated for May 30 to June 1, 2025, at Parañaque, this festival promises an electrifying celebration of creators, fans, and global artistry.
Headlining the festival’s launch is none other than Grammy Award-winning superstar Zedd. Famed for his chart-dominating tracks like Clarity, Stay, and The Middle, Zedd’s much-awaited return to the Philippines sets the stage for an unforgettable weekend.
The festival kicks off with &FRIENDS Music Night – Day 1 in the evening of May 30 – featuring a night of live EDM performances headlined by Zedd. &FRIENDS Music Night – Day 2 is set to follow the evening after on May 31 – boasting a variety of pop, rap and EDM acts alike, with its own headliner to be revealed soon.
“&FRIENDS as a brand is a celebration of modern pop culture as a whole – gaming, music, lifestyle… and the creators and communities surrounding them,” says Justin Banusing, CEO of Clout Kitchen, the organizers of &FRIENDS Festival. “The Philippines is one of the epicentres of fandom in the world, and it just made sense to kick-off the brand here in the country where we started.”
