What's your Enchanted story?

Enchanted Kingdom (EK), the first and only world-class theme park in the country, launched its 28th-anniversary roster of events on Oct. 1 at Eldar’s Theater, Enchanted Kingdom, Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

The year-long celebration with the theme, “What’s Your Enchanted Story?” puts the spotlight on recreating enchanting stories from the past and creating new magical experiences for every guest. 

“Enchanted Kingdom remains to be a part of our guests’ personal milestones throughout its 28 years. We are very excited to capture these enchanting stories from our past and present guests, and celebrate these magical experiences with the future generation,” said Nico Mamon, 28th-anniversary celebration wizard and head of organization development and corporate planning.

Due to popular demand, the highlight will be the return of the Sky Wizardry Fireworks Competition after eight years. It will be held every Saturday of October.

“Apart from entertaining and dazzling the guests, EK has collaborated with Filipino fireworks manufacturers to showcase their products and creativity. As a proud Filipino company, we highlight local artistry with pyrotechnics and music, enchanting Filipinos for the past 28 years,” Mamon shared.

Aside from the fireworks competition, other activities lined up include the World Teachers' Day celebration on Oct. 7; Storytime with Eldar, An Enchanting Kids Event on Oct. 14, to be followed by the Grand Storybook Characters Parade featuring EK characters.

On Oct. 21, Eldar’s E-Kreators will host, dance, and perform as part of the world-class theme park’s collaboration with social media influencers and content creator partners. 

The grand finale will be held on Oct. 28 featuring the Sky Wizardry Fireworks Competition and the Be Enchanted! concert, which stars Asia’s Soul Supreme KZ Tandingan, together with other local acts.

EK will also re-launch its nostalgic menu items as well as new merch to commemorate its 28th anniversary.

The theme park also unveiled its newest offerings, one of which is the EK mobile app that features its interactive map, as well as ride and show schedules. Guests can also access the EK online store (EKOS) through the app.

Anna Mamon-Aban, EK head of business development and digital transformation, encouraged everyone to download the app for a more seamless and magical guest experience.
