With 3,000 zombies in a “FANTASY RUN” designed

district.
Coinciding with the FANTASY RUN is an ALL-NIGHT
STREET FESTIVAL adjacent to the race course featuring several TOP LOCAL BANDS, DJ’s,
CAR SHOW, GTMACCON PINOY KOMIKS and COSPLAYERS CONVENTION, MERCATO CENTRALE
FOOD FEST, and several other side pocket events to keep you up ‘til sunrise!

On his part, promoter J.R. Usi said, “Makati, has
always been the preferred venue for pioneering events, whether its fashion,
food, arts and culture—and even for some advocacy and political rallies—making
it the perfect place to launch our “After Dark” series.”
Beyond the festivities, however, the underlying
advocacy of Makati After Dark is to gather funds for the displaced families
affected by the recent earthquake in Bohol and Cebu. “We’ve all seen the damage
and how the calamity has affected its residents, especially the children that
is why we will be donating part of the proceeds in the relief efforts, we hope
this would greatly help them recover and return to their normal lives,” Usi explained.

Headlining the bands that will be performing at MAKATI AFTER DARK are CALLALILY, SANDWICH, 6CYCLEMIND, CHICOSCI,
GRACENOTE, MOONSTAR 88, and several other surprise guests—each one promising
