G Music Fest, its fourth year, showcased local homegrown artists’ talents with over 11,000 attendees. The event, which took place on September 16, 2023, at Circuit Grounds in Makati, attracted over 11,000 attendees, showcasing the talents of both established and up-and-coming OPM artists.
Attendees from all generations had their fill of original Pinoy music from seasoned and rising artists, such as Urbandub, The Itchyworms, Mayonnaise, Syd Hartha, December Avenue, Lola Amour, Dilaw, PLAYERTWO, Paul Pablo, Sugarcane, Ace Banzuelo, Joem, Nobita, Munimuni, I Belong To The Zoo, BINI, and Drag Race PH Season 2 Queens.
Moreover, since the festival also celebrated creativity and creation, the event featured the Creator Hub, which encouraged self-expression, learning, and creativity through various art and community-building activities, such as live murals and painting with Drip Splash and Paint It Fun.
Fritzy, a 12-year-old local sensation in Quezon known for her drumming skills and TikTok presence, was a highlight of the #GMusicFest. A loyal Globe customer, Fritzy traveled from the province to perform alongside December Avenue on stage. She was thrilled to be on stage with her musical idols and expressed her admiration for Globe. Fritzy praised the experience as a dream come true, expressing gratitude for sharing the stage with her musical heroes and calling it one of the best nights of her life.
December Avenue’s lead vocalist, Zel Bautista, shared his thoughts on the wonderful experience, saying, “Music has the incredible power to connect us all. Me and December Avenue had the privilege to share the stage with a young fan, Fritzy, letting her play the drums during our performance at Globe G MUSIC Fest. To see the joy, excitement and her passion, It reminded me of why I do what I do. Every artist starts as a fan, with a dream. I am deeply humbled to have played a small part in her musical journey. When talking about passion, always remember why you started in the first place. Be patient.”
As if the music and talent weren’t enough, attendees were also treated to a variety of food choices through handpicked food concessionaires, including Better than Ice Cream (BTIC), Kurimu, Pancake House, Yellow Cab, Sizzlin’ Steak, Shakey’s, Potato Corner, and Army Navy.
