On his second visit, expect a more unforgettable night from Apl.de.Ap, who is also a record producer, rapper and DJ (electro-house-hiphop).
According to JP Chiongbian, CEO and the brains and visionary behind VUDU, “It goes without saying that we are all very excited about this event for a cause and to have a celebrity of APL’s magnitude with his stellar cast of DJs performing for the first time in Cebu and at LX, VUDU is definitely an early holiday treat everyone is looking forward to. It’s going to be a phenomenal evening.”
