Dawin leads Eastwood New Year countdown

MANILA, Philippines – Megaworld Lifestyle Malls and Eastwood City are welcoming the New Year with a spectacular and star-studded party that will have revelers partying from sunset up until the early hours of 2016.

One of the most highly-anticipated New Year events in the country, this year’s Eastwood Quezon City New Year Countdown to 2016 is taking the festivities to a whole new different level as it lines up spectacular performances from some of today’s brightest music stars and hottest DJs in what can easily be one of the grandest and longest New Year parties in the Metro.

No less than international singing sensation Dawin will be leading the star-studded musical performances at Eastwood Quezon City New Year Countdown to 2016 on Dec. 31 at the Eastwood Mall Open Park.

Dawin, the American singer behind the smash hit Dessert, topbills an equally stellar line-up of bands and OPM recording stars like Techy Romantics, Imago, Kyla, Christian Bautista, Rico Blanco and X-Factor Australia 2014 grand winner Marlisa Punzalan.

Hosting the revelry, which starts at 6 p.m., are Joyce Pring and Andrei Felix.

At 12 midnight comes the grand fireworks display, which will follow the Dazzling Star Drop. Now on its fifth year, the Dazzling Star Drop is Eastwood City’s version of the world-famous Ball Drop in New York City’s Time Square and one of the most-awaited parts of its New Year Countdown.

Adding more color to these annual traditions is this year’s 10,000 balloon wishes that Eastwood City is giving away for free to revelers. The balloons, which contains a piece of paper where people can write their own wishes for the coming year, will be set free a minute before midnight, creating another must-see spectacle.

The revelry continues with the 2016 After Party happening from 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. at the Fuente Circle in Eastwood Citywalk 2.

All set to rev up and electrify New Year revelers are some of the most recognized names in the party scene including DJs Ron Poe, Travis Monsod, Martin Pulgar, Cam Abecina, Cammy and Jess Miller. Joining them at the after-party are hosts Victor Pring and MC Ace. 

“The New Year always brings renewed hope and excitement to everyone and this is the reason why we continue to make our annual countdown special and memorable. Through our world-class performances and spectacles that go up until the early hours of 2016, we want everyone to welcome the New Year with a smile on their faces and with renewed vigor, enthusiasm and optimism,” said Megaworld Corporation First VP and Commercial Division head Kevin Tan.

Eastwood Quezon City New Year Countdown is co-presented by the Quezon City Government, Standard Chartered, Smirnoff Mule, RTL-CBS Asia and Ivory Music and Video. Official media partners are MYX and 97.9 Home Radio.
