May 21, 2016, Saturday. I got my first plunge of Blogapalooza fever. And because it was my first, I was so excited in what’s in store. By the way #Blogapalooza is a business to blogger event that connects Businesses and Bloggers directly, helping Businesses to lower their costs and increase their profit with the help of rich content from Bloggers.
I read about the past Blogapalooza events, and I was aware that I have to be at the venue early to get first hand on the dibs from the sponsors. I went there with my 2 daughters because we were allowed to bring two non-blogger guests.
The event was held at Elements at Centris in Quezon Ave., 5 mins walk from MRT station. So, we headed to the venue via MRT!😊
At the venue, there were bloggers who arrived ahead of us. Blogapalooza had an online pre-registration. So, registration at the venue was swift. Then, I was given my first ever Blogapalooza blogger ID! Yey!
What I love about #Blogapalooza?
My kids and I loves to play games. So, we head on to each of the sponsors booths to check their products, play, sample and register for a chance to win their raffle!
Yes, there were food samplings! I love food and I love it free. Who doesn’t?😂 The best things are free! Lol!
There was Cocio, promises #nothingbut great taste! (I love this drink!) They also offered us the flat lay photo. We had our photo taken while lying down. Such a great experience. Super thanks for reposting our picture!
Arla, tastes really good! We loved the bite size sandwiches. And the milk shake! And the cheese spread, something to die for. I love it!😊
MN Megawatt, good pizza! I only wished they gave bigger sizes of the pizza sample. (they only gave small cut size, sad me. Hahaha!)
Vita Coco, I got to taste their Vita Summer drink (alcoholic). I only tried a little of it just to taste it. But, I drank 3 bottles of the coconut water!
Aside from the feeding, there were also dibs from Empire East, Skin Station, Speedycard Ph, Chem World, etobee, Happy Fresh, Tag, Blue Water, Gold Stack, Victoria Court and Regrow.
The event was also graced by celebrity singer Christian Bautista, Bb. Pilipinas 1st runner-up, and well-known magicians.
And most importantly, I love the talks, tips from the speakers. I am a newbie, and I have a lot to learn from them.
What I didn’t like about the event?
Nothing! It was just a hit!
So, I’m looking forward to the next Blogapalooza!
Look at what we got!

It’s good that they allow you to bring non blogger friends already. When I attended my first Blogapalooza back in 2014, it wasn’t allowed. Too bad I missed this. I’ve been hearing a lot of good reviews about this Blogapalooza. 😀
