The largest constellation of entertainment stars from the country's biggest television networks are set to descend in Dagupan City to lend shimmer and shine to the 2008 Bangus Festival.
Bangus Festival executive chairperson and Vice Mayor Belen T. Fernandez said media giants ABS CBN and GMA7 will usher in hundreds of its prized stars from their respective stables of Kapamilya and Kapuso talents from television, movies, music and other performing arts.
Leading band icons from the country's music industry like Parokya ni Edgar, Sponge Cola, Bamboo, Kamikaze, Black Dyak, Mocha and Join the Club are likewise set to join and perform during the Bangusan Street Party on April 30.
At least seven entertainment platforms will be erected along the whole stretch of A.B. Fernandez Avenue for the grand street party, including the ABS-CBN Team One Summer Kapamilya and the GMA Grand Kapuso Night shows which is expected to attract huge crowds because of the vaunted drawing powers of its multimedia crossover stars.
Vice Mayor Fernandez added that TV music concert shows SOP and ASAP 08, both topraters of GMA7 and ABS-CBN respectively will also broadcast its live shows separately on April 20 and April 27 from the colossal halls of the 12,000-seater Jimmy L. Fernandez Center at the CSI Stadia.
"Truly, the diverse, rich color and texture of this year's Bangus Festival will not only strengthen the city's standing as the regional center of media but also mark its meteoric rise as the seat of entertainment in Northern Luzon," Fernandez said.
GMA TV 10 is slated to setup and fortify its regional operations in time for the Bangus Festival, adding up Dagupan's bustling media community, which includes its first regional television station ABS-CBN Northern Luzon, three cable television stations, a dozen AM and FM radio stations and a dozen more local weekly newspapers.
