TFC draws huge crowds in the US, Japan & Australia
MANILA, Philippines - The Filipino Channel (TFC) mounted record-breaking events in three different countries recently. The United States, Australia and Japan were the destinations for TFC as it keeps bringing flavors of the homeland on-air and on-ground to the millions of Global Filipinos there. The huge crowd support and reactions were overwhelming that TFC is already planning to return to these places at the soonest possible time.
On Sept. 12, nearly 10,000 came to California’s Great America to join the grandest annual Filipino event in the US West Coast to date, One Kapamilya Go! (OK Go!) 2010. The theme park was transformed into a Filipino town as thousands of TFC viewers and their families and friends, braved the heat and reserved their seats early for the day’s main events.
Moving closer to home, TFC brought OK Go! to Japan. Held at the Nisshou Hall, in Tokyo on Sept. 20, One Kapamilya Go! 2nd Wave featured Kapamilya comedy and music.
Gerald Anderson, Sam Milby and Gabby Concepcion provided entertainment while Kakai Bautista brought endless laughter to the crowd.
Time-traveling to the ‘80s, Gabby sang Come What May with Kakai spoofing his ex-wife Sharon Cuneta. Gabby sent hearts aflutter not just with his singing but also when he danced with members of the audience.
Capping its 16th anniversary, TFC brought Kapamilya stars to the Land Down Under. Dubbed TFC Live! Down Under, two nights of Pinoy stand-up comedy, high-energy dance numbers and love songs filled Sydney and Melbourne last Sept. 24 and 25.
Breaking attendance records in both venues, the show presented Maja Salvador, Jed Madela and Chokoleit.
