Aurora Music Festival
The AURORA Music Festival (also referred to as the Clark Hot Air Balloon Music, Arts and Food Festival) is an annual music and arts festival featuring live music, food, art installations, and hot air balloons held in Clark Global City in Pampanga, Philippines over the course of two days. The festival was later expanded into Cebu (later cancelled) and Davao. It is organized by Epic Events. = The inaugural Aurora Music Festival, originally scheduled for the summer of 2020, was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It eventually took place from June 10–11, 2022. The festival featured hot air balloon displays and performances by local artists and bands. Tickets purchased for the original date remained valid for the rescheduled event. = The Aurora Music Festival is held in Clark Global City, inside the Clark Freeport Zone where the Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta (PIHABF) is also held since 1994 before they moved to Carmona, Cavite for its 2020 edition. When the music festival was announced, it created a confusion with it being held at the same place and involved hot air balloon. On April 13, 2022, the organizing committee of PIHABF released a statement to clarify that their event is different from the Clark Hot Air Balloon Music, Arts and Food Festival (AURORA Music Festival), and that they do not have any association with the organization and the management of the said event. The festival made its expansion to two other cities. As of now, the Davao leg of the festival tour was only organized and is held at the Crocodile Park Concert Ground.
