YouTube FanFest Manila 2016: An Awesome #YTFF with Viral Sensations

Wazzup Pilipinas!

We had such an amazing experience at this year's YOUTUBE FANFEST in Manila!

YouTube Fanfest Manila 2016 took place in the Philippines on a Friday, May 27, 2016 at the World Trade Center in Pasay with some of YouTube’s biggest stars.
Alex Wassabi, Tiffany Alvord, AJ Rafael, Mikey Bustos, Bogart the Explorer, Filharmonic, Gab Valenciano, Lloyd Cadena, Tiffany Alvord, Connor Franta, Tanner Patrick, Wengie, Tyler Ward, Abra and a lot more local and foreign YouTube stars gave fans a show that they will surely remember. 

The YouTube FanFest stage was filled with inspiring and talented video creators - truly a stellar lineup of social media stars! The estimated 5,000 fans present that day had the time of their lives watching their idols perform live and in the flesh.

All of the talents involved took part in a variety show exhibiting some of the skills that made them famous on the video streaming platform. They started out as quirky video dabblers but today they're viral sensations. They are the new breed of celebrities who rocketed to superstardom using YouTube channels.

At an earier press conference held before the main event, "YouTubers" gave tips for aspiring online stars to just be themselves, share their passions and not to focus too much on the views they get. Alodia Gosiengfiao was there during the YouTube FanFest Manila Creators Camp sharing some prod hacks but could not join the main event since she had to finish a costume for her flight tomorrow to Orlando Florida for the MegaCon Convention.

The YouTube FanFest turned out to be a huge party — and we're still not over it. Thank you to every person who has subscribed, watched and shared any of their videos in the past years of their journey with YouTube. Thank you to YouTube FanFest for giving these viral sensations an opportunity to meet their fans in person.
