WANDERLAND Music and Arts Festival is already preparing for its return next year, six months after it concluded its highly anticipated comeback in March.
Titled “Wanderland Neighborhood,” the music and arts festival is set to happen on March 9 and 10 at the Filinvest Concert Grounds in Alabang, Muntinlupa City.
“Welcome to Wanderland Neighborhood[:] Home of good music and good people,” the organizers announced on X, along with an animated video that showed a character delivering newspapers about the forthcoming event.
On Monday, Wanderland hyped up festivalgoers by announcing the first 12 artists who will perform at the festival.
The ninth edition will be headlined by American singer-songwriter Jack Johnson, who is known for his chill, acoustic songs Better Together, Banana Pancakes, Upside Down, Sitting, Waiting, Wishing, and I Got You.
Johnson will open the first day of the festival, together with Australian electropop band Parcels, Welsh multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter Novo Amor, South Korean rapper Beenzino, Filipina-Japanese pop artist ena mori, and Filipino alternative indie rock band bird.
The second day of the festival will see performances from Filipino-American singer-songwriter Jeff Bernat, Filipino-Australian singer-songwriter Grentperez, Taiwanese singer-guitarist CLOUDRIVER, Pinoy singer-songwriter Paolo Sandejas, Filipino rock band Party Pace, Bicolana singer-songwriter dwta.
A second wave of performers will be announced soon, said the organizers.
The annual festival was launched in the country in 2013 to celebrate music, art, and even food.
According to its website, the event will have a theme that is “hitting close to home’’ and attendees can expect to “enter a community” once they go to the festival.
