Cebu's Grandest Summer Party: Summer Sunscream or Life Dance?


Summer is about to end but Cebu's party habit will be on fire on the 26th of May 2012. I must say a "Grand Showdown" of these 2 Gigantic Finale Summer Events that Cebuanos & even visitors around the globe will gonna enjoy: Life Dance 2012 and Summer Sunscream 2012.

.........:::::::: THE VENUES ::::::::.........

The Life Dance 2012 (first introduced this year) will be held in The Boardwalk Complex, FF Cruz Reclamation Area, Mandaue City, Cebu. To be honest, I like the idea of having the party to this not-so-exposed yet refreshing area in Metro Cebu or maybe the organizers just thought "To end summer partying at the Beach is so mainstream", which i highly commend.

Meanwhile, Summer Sunscream 2012 (5th year in a row) will be held in Portofino Beach Resort, Lapu-lapu City. With a whooping 15,000 attendees last year, this event will gonna prove to all what "The Original" Cebu Party is all about with their 400 sq.m., fully airconditioned tent and all alluminum floating stage. This must be a big, well-planned event for the organizers to answer issues regarding previous Summer Sunscream (overheard people complaining, overpring ticket, calling it "Summer Sunscream EPIC FAIL" thru a FB page). Oh well, wish them all the best and good luck to the event!
