The Rose Returns to Manila for CONQuest Festival 2023
MANILA, Philippines — CONQuest Festival 2023 sees the return of South Korean rock band The Rose to the Sky Islands of Manila, this time to soar AcadArena’s award-winning gaming & pop culture convention and reach new heights on June 2–4, 2023!
Now ready to take on the AcadArena challenge to greet a wider audience, the CONQuest 2023 stages mark The Rose’s introduction to a community of Filipino gaming and pop culture enthusiasts at the Sky Islands of CONQuest Festival!
The news comes as a welcome surprise for Filipino Black Roses as the band just recently brought their Heal Together World Tour to Manila this January 14 at the SM North EDSA Skydome; The Rose also graced the Philippine Stage in December 2019 for their We Rose You Live Tour at the Samsung Hall, SM Aura Premier.
Composed of Woosung, Dojoon, Hajoon, and Jaehyung, rock band The Rose is best known for their hit songs “She’s In The Rain,” “RED,” and “Sorry”.
The Rose is slated to greet fans in three pertinent CONQuest Festival 2023 events: Music Night and Meet & Greet on June 3 (Saturday), and the Artist Q&A Session on June 4 (Sunday).
The Rose at Music Night CONQuest 2023
With a bigger and even more heated lineup to grace the Sky Islands this year, CONQuest Festival 2023 is introducing Music Night to be held on Saturday (June 3). This is AcadArena’s way of extending their once gaming-centric festival to a more inclusive pop culture celebration in appreciation and discovery of music!
The South Korean band The Rose will be joined by James Reid as well as other local stars Carousel Casualties, Oh Flamingo!, and Autotelic, and international DJs James Landino and Hyper Potions.
Tickets for Music Night may be purchased through www.conquestph.com/tickets.
The Music Night access will be available to all Premium Pass holders and Regular Day 2 Saturday Pass holders with the Music Night Add-On.
An additional Meet & Greet add-on will also be available for Music Night attendees who would want to meet the band up-close! The Meet & Greet is a photo session with all performing members of The Rose to be held immediately after the band’s set.
Festival-goers with a Regular Day 3 Sunday Pass may also catch The Rose in their Artist Q&A Session.
AcadArena has extensively prepared a festival of gaming, tech, music, and everything pop culture as the CONQuest Festival 2023 weekend brings over 70 local and international guests closer to the Filipino community.
Just remember, Questers: try to not get lost! Ready your maps and timetables as you venture the great unknowns of the Sky Islands at the SMX Convention Center, Seashell Lane, Conrad Manila, Mall of Asia (MoA), and National University MoA (NU MoA).
