History

Wanderland Music and Arts Festival Wanderland Music Arts Festival 2015 Philippine Concerts

Wanderland was founded in 2013 by Karpos Multimedia Inc. (A multimedia and events company), headed by siblings Stephanie, Nicole and John Uy. They were just talking about random things in the wee hours of the morning until they came up with Wanderland and the idea became more possible with the help and support of their parents. The concept of Wanderland Music and Arts Festival is to produce yearly concert events with different themes to create variety of activities and art installations for the attendees. Their vision is to make Filipino people experience a one of a kind music festival and make Wanderland, the biggest and the most established music festival in the Philippines. Brought by the big success of its first year, many international brands such as Topshop, River Island, Rayban, GAP and Smirnoff and one of the biggest mobile telecom in the country, Globe Telecom, have partnered with Karpos Multimedia in making Wanderland happen. Fox Networks Group Philippines, which manages leading general entertainment channels Fox and Star World would become a co-presenter.
