Selected media partners, including LionhearTV‘s Tech Jungle, were brought by JBL to Clark, Pampanga for a two-day celebration marking the brand’s 80th anniversary.
The celebration, held at Clark Marriott Hotel, gathered members of the media, content creators, executives, and guests for a showcase of JBL’s newest audio innovations and community-driven activities.
Upon arrival at the hotel, guests were welcomed and assigned their rooms before the festivities officially began at the Grand Ballroom later that afternoon.
The event immediately opened with high energy as attendees gathered for JBL’s anniversary program. One of the personalities who instantly caught attention was content creator Heath Jornales, who warmly accommodated guests who wanted to take photos with him.
The program continued with opening remarks and messages from JBL executives discussing the brand’s 80-year legacy and its latest innovations in portable entertainment, gaming, personal listening, and karaoke experiences.
One of the highlights of the evening came during a performance of the song ‘Hawak Kamay’ by an invited guest singer. In a surprise moment, the song’s original composer and singer, Yeng Constantino, suddenly appeared for a duet performance that delighted everyone inside the ballroom.
Yeng then continued with several more performances, energizing the crowd and turning the anniversary celebration into a full concert-like experience.
After the musical performances, media guests were invited into another room to explore JBL’s newest product lineup firsthand. Featured products included the JBL EasySing karaoke microphones, PartyBox speakers, JBL Go 5, JBL Xtreme 5, Quantum gaming headsets, and the latest Live and Tune headphone series.
The showcase highlighted JBL’s focus on immersive entertainment, portable listening, gaming, and AI-powered karaoke features designed for modern lifestyles.
Guests later returned to the Grand Ballroom for a discussion and Q&A session with JBL executives before the night concluded with a performance from iconic OPM band South Border.
But the surprises did not end there.
Larry Secreto also hosted a raffle for attendees, giving away JBL products to lucky winners throughout the evening. LionhearTV was among the winners and took home a JBL Horizon 3.
Despite the continuing afterparty, LionhearTV opted to head back to the room early to prepare for the following morning’s fun run activity.
The next day began early with a community fun run joined by members of the media and JBL representatives. Even after the late-night festivities, Larry Secreto remained energetic as he joined participants during the 3K run.
After completing the activity, attendees returned to the hotel for breakfast before checking out and preparing for the scheduled 1 PM departure back to Manila.
Beyond the product launches and entertainment, JBL’s 80th anniversary celebration successfully highlighted the brand’s continuing evolution while creating memorable experiences that connected music, technology, gaming, fitness, and community together in one immersive event.
