Puerto Galera, Philippines

Malasimbo Festival: Experience Jioe De Vivre feeling throughout the event

Year after Year, people from all over the globe gather along the attractive hills of Puerto Galera, Philippines to celebrate the Malasimbo Festival for the 9th time. Considered as one of the 5 best electro music festivals in Asia, the first event went down in 2011 and this event serves as a venue for the indigenous people of Mindoro to portray their culture and art. The festival is held outdoors in a grass-terraced Amphitheatre in a coconut tree plantation at the foot of Mount Malasimbo. The different music genres played, the art and the atmosphere will get you thinking about why you haven’t been there before. Thinking that this event might cause harm to the environment with all the parties and mind-blowing music is just a fallacy since one of the main goals of this festival is to promote environmental conservation.

Malasimbo attracts global and local artists and the event is also aimed at helping the rising new talents. Food is also a huge part of this festival and there is a variety of tantalizing types of delicious foods to taste. Get your blood pumping with the non-stop partying.

‘If you think you are courageous enough you can check out the ‘Malasimboat’ parties where you can slide, dive and jump off the party boat while a live DJ plays his playlist in the background.’

Never heard of the Silent Disco? This is the place to have it where you can dance and enjoy music by putting on some headphones as the DJ’s main objective is to get the loudest cheer from the crowd.
