Red Hot Manila

RED HOT MANILA

For those people whose house is far away from Mall of Asia and who didn't got a chance to go there to attend Red Hot Manila sponsored by Air Asia, I tell you what happened there. If you'll compare Grand Fans Day that happened in SM North Edsa, Red Hot Manila is definitely not better than GFD. I will also tell you my reasons. (This is according to my POV, I think other people has their own so...) 

First, what happened there? 

What really sucks is that I came there 10AM and they said it will start at 10:30AM. We waited. Guess what? It started at around 11:30AM.  The funny thing is at first, they are only playing 2 songs. "Love Story" and "Teardrops on my Guitar". Then improved to "Taylor Swift" album. After an hour, the people from Odyssey came and I think they gave them "Red" album. :) Here are my screenshots of the place, and the events inside. There is no performance or anything. What will take your time is the LOOONG LINE! A person needs to get 5 stamps in order to join the raffle(VIP Ticket and other freebies). There are steps in order to get the stamp. 

The view in the second floor. :D 

Step 1: Download the AirAsia app. The line is so long because you'll fill up 2 forms. The first one for registration and the second one is for the raffle.

Step 2:  Sign up as an Air Asia member. While looking at the second floor picture I took, the longest line there will be THIS STEP.  There's only 2 computer and signing up as a member is really a hassle. So, what we did is we sign up using our phone via Wi-Fi then took a screenshot. So we didn't line up this long.

Step 3:  #TaylorSwiftViaAirAsia #RedHotManila

Step 4: There is a mini wheel beside this instagram section. Sample question: Where is Shanghai? (China)

THEN OFF TO A WINDY HUNT!

At first I didn't get this windy hunt thing.... But I will show you what it is..

The Windy Hunt!! Inside there are papers that have invisible ink written on it.
They said that you'll win VIP ticket but FTW there are so many papers. LOL

Why GFD is better than Red Hot Manila?

Grand Fans Day in North Edsa is really worth it! So, if you didn't have the chance to go to Red Hot Manila, don't be sad. Promise GFD is really more fun. 

1.No performances. (If you'd gone to GDF, all out performaces and #RedAsiaMovement)

2.No ones interested with Piso Fair. Almost everyone who came here is just for TSwift's VIP ticket. 

3.Other booths are not working (the instagram booth, when we came there it's not working)

5.Overpriced merch.

and a lot more reasons. :D

Even though the venue here is bigger, it only took us 30minutes to finish every steps. The event is dull but there are many cute Taylor Swift posters and standees. 

Here are the other pictures:
