CREATEPhilippines brought the first Philippine music delegation to Bangkok Music City 2026

Our mission has always been rooted in the belief that music knows no borders, and we are dedicated to connecting artists with Thailand and Southeast Asia music scene. Whether it’s bringing global talents to Bangkok or amplifying the voices of regional neighbors, we aim to increase exposure for Southeast Asian artists within the local Thai music scene and beyond.

This is why we are delighted to collaborate with CREATEPhilippines on their mission to bring Filipino artists and delegates to Bangkok Music City (BMC) 2026. Having recently visited Manila for SONIK Philippines, we experienced firsthand just how vibrant and interesting the Filipino music scene is, it’s a creative powerhouse that deserves a spotlight on the regional stage!

Promotion of International Artists during Bangkok Music City

Our role in this collaboration is to act as the on-ground bridge between the Philippine delegation and the Thai market. We led a comprehensive Promotion & Media Engagement Plan designed to maximize visibility for the participating artists. Our responsibilities include:

Localized Outreach: We adapted publicity assets, including press releases, artist profiles, and media kits into Thai to ensure authentic engagement with local audiences.

Media Coordination: We’ve curated a specialized Thai-market media list across music, lifestyle, and arts sectors, securing media features and spotlights.

Beyond digital cross-promotion and email distributions, we facilitated on-ground media interactions and interviews during the event to secure high-impact coverage.
