Kiddieverse: The MassKara Magic Brings Joy to 1,500 Bacolod Kids

The Bacolod City Government Center turned into a wonderland of color and laughter last Saturday, October 4, as Kiddieverse: The MassKara Magic gathered 1,500 day care children for one of the most heartwarming highlights of MassKara Festival 2025.

Organized in partnership with the Department of Social Services and Development (DSSD), the event welcomed registered children from various barangays, with walk-ins also joining the fun. While snacks and loot bags were reserved for those on the official list, all kids were free to take part in the games, shows, and photo opportunities.

The celebration kicked off with a Parade of Mascots, Magicians, Princesses, Organizers, and MassKara Dancers, leading into a full program of entertainment. Highlights included performances from Magikland mascots, Happy Kids & Co., a magic show, and the Kiddieverse Talent Spotlight, where five young performers received ride-all-you-can passes to Magikland.

The energy soared with Jollibee and Friends’ Jollytown Dance, a toy giveaway, and a Surprise Smile Hunt that kept kids smiling throughout the day. The event ended with a Community Dance, uniting children, parents, and organizers in celebration.

Festival Director Rodney Ascalon said, “It’s beautiful to see events like this that bring families together. This is what MassKara is all about—joy, unity, and smiles across generations.”* (BGFI)
