Acer, the global leader in computer hardware technologies, kicked off its annual Acer Day celebration last July at the Glorietta Palm Drive Activity Center. Themed “Play Music Together”, the launch event doubled as a concert and dance show featuring Moira dela Torre and IV of Spades, both youth music icons of today, as well as renowned dance troupe the G-Force.
Introduced last year, Acer Day saw its beginnings in 14 countries across Pan-Asia Pacific. This year, the celebration grows as 20 countries in the region join in on the fun. Aside from the Philippines, Acer Day 2018 will be kicking off in Australia, Bangladesh, Brunei, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, New Zealand, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.



In keeping with its global theme “Play Music Together”, Acer Philippines echoes the message that music is one of the most powerful forms of expression and communication. As a testament, the Acer Day Launch Event brought together Moira Dela Torre and IV of Spades, 2 artists that are making waves in the music industry today, for an unforgettable duet that’s sure to be one for the books. Of course, doubling down and making the music truly come alive was the G-Force dance troupe, who delivered a live show-stopping performance of the Acer Day dance to delight the crowd.

“Music has been around for decades, and yet it manages to stay youthful, trendy, and innovative,” shares Sue Ong-Lim, Sales and Marketing Director of Acer Philippines. “In a way, this mirrors how Acer regards technology, in that it should always be fresh, modern, and inventive in terms of its design and capabilities.”




The event-turned-concert show also saw the announcement of the many activities and promos Acer Philippines has in store to properly celebrate the leading tech brand’s Acer Day celebrations.

I rarely attend parties, so there are few things that I'm missing. I know I'm kind of an old school, a Maria Clara kind, but to my amazement this kind of party got me very curious. It's the "Acer Day" celebration.


What's interesting is that this party was a ball pit party and it is not only for the media but also to the public, the mall goers.
 Acer, a leading tech and innovations company, celebrated “Acer Day” in the Philippines last August. The grand launch happened on August 3 globally, and the local celebration was held at the Glorietta Activity Center.
In keeping with the global look and theme “Be cool everyday”, the venue was transformed into a giant ball pit for a full day, where mall guests may play freely in any of the stations. The Glorietta Activity Center also served as the backdrop for various energetic performances by Basti Artadi and Kjwan, and lively sets from famed DJs Euric and Nina.
“Acer Day was conceptualized to continually refresh and breathe new life into the brand, as well as to boost the public’s awareness and knowledge about Acer products,” shares Sue Ong-Lim, Sales and Marketing Director of Acer Philippines. “This year’s celebration is the first of many to come, and consumers can trust that it will only get better from here.”


Acer Day is the world’s leading computer brand’s first transnational and largest annual brand day event, which kicked off in 14 countries, including China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand and Vietnam. Andrew Hou, President of Pan Asia Pacific Region, shares that Acer Day’s grand opening date was specifically chosen for a special purpose, in that “eight-third” (Aug. 3rd) sounds like “Acer”. Following this run, every August 3rd in the future will be Acer’s brand day, where fresh brand activities and events will be introduced to consumers.
The theme of this year’s Acer Day is “Be cool everyday”, inspired by and centered on Acer’s AeroBlade™ 3D fan. The AeroBlade™ technology enables the use of the world's thinnest metal fan blade, providing advanced aerodynamics and airflow performance to keep the system at a low temperature.
The "Acer Day" was a tiring day but full of fun, as we, the attendees of the event were given a chance to experience what was it going to happen for the rest of the day. Like I mention it was tiresome but the rewards that I got was more than that feeling of exhaustion, I was one of the lucky attendees of the event. I won a tablet from Acer, it's the "Acer Iconia 7" which is great for me and my kids. Thank you so much Acer for this wonderful prize after enjoying the Grand Ball Pit Party ever.
The “Acer Day” event website officially kicked off on July 21st and will stay live until October 3rd. Consumers can log in with social media accounts to participate in a total of 11 daily challenges, including memory puzzles, friend sharing games, and other fun challenges, to earn “Cool Points”. These Cool Points may then be exchanged for raffle tickets. Prizes include five (5) Acer Swift 7, one (1) Acer Spin 1, and three (3) Predator Helios 300, which will be drawn on October 11th. More treats and exclusive deals will also be available for purchases made during Acer Day – check out the event website at www.acer-day.com/ph and the Acer Philippines Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/AcerPH for more information.
