20 February 2018 STOCKHOLM —  The Philippines Department of Tourism London (DOT London), in cooperation with the Philippine Embassy in Oslo, Norway, showcased the FUN brand of the Philippines on 17-18 February 2018 to the visitors and exhibitors of the Stockholm Panorama World Festival 2018.

The Philippines exhibited images of the Philippines’ best islands with huge poster wall, digital screen, virtual reality pod and colorful brochures. Held almost every two hours, the flair bartending show of multi-awarded Flair Bartending champion Dennis Barela and the cultural dance performances always gathered huge crowd. There were long lines to sample the mango juice cocktail served by Dennis.  Samples of Philippine dried mangoes attracted curiosity and elicited smiles after having tasted them.

On its first year, the Stockholm World Festival 2018 aimed to celebrate the culture, tourism and gastronomy from all around the globe.  The festival was held at the World Trade Center Stockholm on 17-18 February 2018. END
