Forbes 5-star experience and partnership
Okada Manila’s famed Forbes 5-star experience awaits the legendary alternative rock band. The property is known for its luxurious rooms, extraordinary amenities and features, outstanding restaurants offering a world of flavors, shopping thrills at its Retail Boulevard and iconic attractions, namely The Fountain and Cove Manila.

To mark the partnership, Okada Manila, spearheaded by its top executives, recently hosted an exclusive Appreciation Dinner at its premier Italian restaurant, La Piazza. In attendance were the band’s lead singer Ely Buendia, concert producers WEU Event Management Services, Ant Savvy Creatives and Entertainment Inc., DVent Productions, and Myriad Entertainment Corporation.

"This partnership is one for the books. Okada Manila is glad to collaborate with the producers of the Eraserheads for their Huling El Bimbo Reunion Concert. We are ready and will be pulling out all the stops to ensure that the Eraserheads will get to experience Okada Manila’s renowned Forbes 5-star stay and exemplary service," said Cielo Reboredo, Okada Manila’s vice president for Sales and Marketing. 

Much-anticipated reunion concert
The music scene has been abuzz with the announcement of the Eraserheads’ Huling El Bimbo Reunion Concert, generating excitement to a fever pitch from its fan base of millions who have been following and supporting the band for over three decades. The Eraserheads had their last public concert in 2009 and this reunion concert has been highly anticipated. As early as October, avid fans snapped up these most coveted tickets, creating a bigger demand for more tickets or additional concert dates. The producers conceded and expanded venue arrangements to accommodate more concert-goers.

This will be a nostalgic musical journey as the Eraserheads will again be performing their classic hits that have gained them a legion of following and music that continues to live on today. The band will also have a fresh take on some of their songs, showcasing new arrangements to be accompanied by an 18-piece orchestra. And in honor of their fifth honorary member, the late rap artist Francis Magalona, the Eraserheads will be performing with him on-stage through the magic of hologram technology.
