    They’re Back to Make History as Headliners

    Wanderland is bringing back two unforgettable acts who’ve left their mark on the festival stage before: Daniel Caesar and HONNE.

    If you were at Wanderland 2018, you already know the next-level experience he delivered. Like a perfectly crafted soundtrack, Daniel Ceasar’s soulful performance unlocked a new level of feels.

Daniel is set to make this night one for the high scores—no doubt, it’s going to be the best part of the festival.

    They brought their set from the Jungle stage into the realm of Magic: English synth-pop duo HONNE, who first dazzled Wanderers back in 2017 and returned to cast their magic in 2019, is now back for the third act as a co-headliner for Wanderland Day 2. Third time’s the charm? Absolutely. “Baby, you’re the one that I want,” and if you want electrifying synth-pop with a sprinkle of retro vibes, HONNE’s your go-to. Expect an upbeat, spellbinding performance that’ll have everyone dancing through the enchanted night—making their return to Wanderland worth the wait.

    Australia’s Chet Faker endeared himself to a devoted international following with a cover of Blackstreet’s “No Diggity” that catapulted him into the spotlight in 2011. He’s here to serenade us with his signature soulful indie sound that seamlessly combines airy beats and introspective lyrics.

    If you’re in the mood for something a little more mellow, The Paper Kites will tug at your heartstrings with their ethereal folk-rock melodies. After their first performance back in 2014, they’re making their long-awaited return to the Wanderland stage, ready to whisk you away into their world of music fancy. With heartfelt lyrics and delicate harmonies, “Bloom” and “Feather Song” are the perfect soundtrack for a chill, magical night.

  • Wanderland 2024’s Wave 1 Lineup has arrived

    Wanderland 2024’s Wave 1 Lineup has arrived

    Karpos proudly welcomes the first 12 artists coming home to Wanderland

    Continuing its annual tradition of celebrating good music and good people, Wanderland Music &
    Arts Festival has just announced their first roster of artists for 2024 all packed inside its new and
    homey theme: Wanderland Neighborhood.

    The ninth edition of the country’s premier music and arts festival is set to happen on March 9 &
    10, 2024 at the Filinvest City Events Grounds, Alabang, Muntinlupa, Philippines.

    It’s time to meet your neighbors.

    Jack Johnson is the first headliner of Wanderland 2024

    Wave 1 is starting off with a banger as American singer-songwriter Jack Johnson makes his
    Philippine debut at Wanderland Music & Arts Festival. Aside from creating poetic music and folk
    pop anthems, Jack is also an environmental rights activist who spearheads sustainability
    campaigns on ocean health–a true inspiration for the festival’s journey towards sustainability.

    With his classic songs Better Together, Banana Pancakes, and Sunsets For Somebody Else, it
    is a must to experience live the warmth and heartfelt tunes of Jack Johnson.

    Bringing home to the Wanderland stage

    If music can feel like home, these artists are up on the list.

    Aussie-born, Berlin-based band Parcels will be bringing your living room party and patio dinner
    playlists to life with their signature live dance music experience. Novo Amor (Ali
    Meredith-Lacey), a Welsh multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter, will make his
    much-awaited visit to perform music reminiscent of our safe space at home. Meanwhile,
    US-based RnB singer-songwriter, Jeff Bernat, armed with elements of soul and pop is bound to
    set the mood high for his Filipino homies.

    Next-door wonders

    When it comes to quality sound and a good time, we cannot leave out what our next-door
    friends have to offer. We have Beenzino, a K-Hiphop and rap artist, 雲端司機 (CLOUDRIVER),
    a lauded guitarist and singer from Taiwan, and Filipino-Aussie sensation grentperez.

    Homegrown talents

    One thing about Wanderland is that it will never be short of homegrown acts. Showcasing the
    best of the country’s indie music scene is just the festival’s thing.

    Starting off with Paolo Sandejas, the country’s freshest neo-soul act with addictive melodies
    laced with indie-pop and alt-rock vibes. Eccentric to the eyes and good on the ears is Ena Mori,
    who artistically bridges Filipino and Japanese genres in her music. Bicol’s best kept secret,
    dwta, will be enchanting the crowd with songs purely and beautifully sung in Bicolano. Along
    with them is the band bird., who explores songs that narrate the melancholic life of a typical
    Filipino teenager, almost akin to US midwestern emo. And finally, accidental supergroup Party
    Pace, with a hodge-podge of members from various household names in the local scene (IVOS,
    Sandwich, Chicosci), completes the Wave 1 lineup.

    In true Wanderland fashion, Wave 1 already has something for everyone. Be sure to grab your
    tickets early to score the best deals!

  • Wanderland Completes Wave 1 Artist Lineup for 2023

    Wanderland Completes Wave 1 Artist Lineup for 2023

    After a three-year long wait, Wanderland Music & Arts Festival is officially back on track after announcing their first wave of artists for their highly-anticipated return set on March 4 & 5, 2023. 

    The Wave 1 lineup consists of 11 acts that span across the globe with different styles, flairs, and influences, so there’s plenty to be excited about.

    Let us give you a rundown. 

    Wanderland Festival 2023

    Phoenix makes pivotal return

    Right off the bat–Phoenix, a pop-alternative band from France, was announced to headline next year’s season.

    Phoenix has been well-loved by Filipino fans, many who have been following them since the early 2000s. The opportunity to catch the band’s electrifying sounds and infectious melodies live is a champion move and is something one simply cannot pass up–again. 

    Wanderland 2023 will mark Phoenix’s third visit to the country and we can only imagine what a spectacle it will be. 

    Soulful, swoon-worthy superstars 

    Fall into a dream-like state with soft, lush, and sentimental tunes from Men I Trust (CA) and Stephen Day (US). With carefully-curated melodies and thoughtfully-written lyrics, both artists lead the pack for music that’s perfect for embracing and romanticizing life. 

    If there’s something that could get you feeling like you’re on cloud nine, you’ve found your go-to’s.

    Applaud to Asian acts

    Wanderland also sets the stage for discovery and celebration of Asian music. Hailing from Taiwan are alternative-indie pop rock band, Sunset Rollercoaster, and singer-rapper, Leo Wang and making waves from South Korea are alternative K-Pop band, Balming Tiger and K-HipHop artist, George. They are all set to make their debut in the Philippines next year and we’re pumped to experience the diversity and exciting talent from our friends in the region.

    It’s about time we make more noise for Asian music! 

    Locals with versatile sounds and vocals

    No Rome, a homegrown artist now based in London, is known for his collaborations with The 1975, Charli XCX, and dijon, but don’t be fooled—his solo music gets you even more hooked through his mix of shoegaze, R&B, and electronic dream-pop guaranteed to fall into your last song syndrome list.

    Blaster, who recently pursued a solo career from the band, IV of Spades, made headlines when he debuted DISKO FOREVER (Japanese Version)—yes, the song is completely sung in Japanese! If this is any indication of what an experimental journey his music holds, then we’re all ears (and dance shoes ready) for what he has prepared for his festival performance. 

    August Wahh has been establishing her name in the music scene not only locally, but internationally, having been invited to the ASEAN Music Showcase Festival and opening for artists like Daniel Caesar and RAC. If you’re looking to get into the vibe of neo-soul music, August Wahh is your girl.

    The Sundown, based in Cebu and champions of Wanderbattle 2020, is finally making their way to Manila to bring their nostalgic anthems and tasteful Cebuano sounds on the Wanderland stage. As their name suggests, should we have them play the sunset slot?

    It’s already a packed roster but it’s just the beginning of the greatest comeback of team Wanderland.

    Newsletter subscribers can enjoy a limited WANDERMAIL EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT beginning Nov. 24, 10AM – Nov. 30 or until supplies last. To unlock the discount, a code will be sent via email to each subscriber. 

    • Regular Wanderer tickets: PHP 6,500+
