Over 50,000 Boholanos vibed with AirAsia Philippines for Sandugo Festival
11 August 2025, Manila, Philippines — AirAsia Philippines further cemented its presence in Central Visayas as it successfully staged the third leg of its LFG! Let’s Fly & Go Fiesta Series during the vibrant Sandugo Festival in Bohol bringing together thousands of Gen Z travelers through a celebration of local culture and music.
The event drew over 50,000 concertgoers and 300,000 online views, with the majority being young travelers who gathered at Bantawan in the Old Tagbilaran Airport. Guests who presented their AirAsia boarding passes were granted exclusive fast-lane access to the concert grounds, which featured headline performances by rising OPM artists Cup of Joe, known for their hit “Multo,”and Earl Agustin, who serenaded the crowd with “Tibok”, last August 8.
“AirAsia is deeply committed to enriching stakeholders’ experiences while promoting cultural diversity. Through music and festivities, communities unite and celebrate meaningful causes such as preserving history for future generations. We’re proud to partner with the LGU of Bohol in championing initiatives that drive travel growth in this beautiful destination,” AirAsia Philippines President and CEO Suresh Bangah shares.
Alongside this, the World’s Best Low-Cost airline also participated in cultural events, particularly in Miss Bohol pageant and Sandugo Street Parade, further showcasing support for local festivities.
Operating between Manila and Tagbilaran, AirAsia Philippines reinforces its strong market in Bohol while solidifying its role as the preferred carrier through competitive fares and reliable connectivity.
