In the midsummer of 2025, the Harbourfront Centre in Toronto was bathed in the sunshine and laughter of the festival. From July 4th to 6th, the highly anticipated Fun Philippines Toronto Philippine Cultural Festival was grandly held. In three days, it attracted nearly 25,000 person-times of participation and attention, becoming one of the most popular cultural events in the local summer.
Ignite the Summer in Toronto with the Power of Karaoke
As an important platform connecting Philippine traditions and community emotions, the event site gathered a wealth of food stalls, handicraft exhibitions, dance performances, and music shows. The main participants were mainly Filipino families, local residents, and tourists interested in Asian culture. Whether it was enjoying a traditional folk dance or queuing up to buy hometown-flavored snacks, everyone found a sense of belonging and resonance here.
Ikarao chose to make its debut at this time to express gratitude to our main users in the Philippine community. By setting up a karaoke interactive area, we hope to let the friends who come to the festival site experience the happy time of the integration of family affection, friendship, and music, and also make the concept of Ikarao brand, which is "hoping to make all those who like singing happy", closer to everyone.
Music brings people closer, and the Ikarao booth has become a meeting point of family affection and laughter.
At the Fun Philippines Toronto cultural festival, the Ikarao booth is like a mobile family gathering space - with singing voices rising and falling, and laughter ringing out constantly. People gather spontaneously, regardless of age or singing skills, just to share the joy brought by music. The "Karaoke corner" set up at the booth has become one of the liveliest corners of the festival. A Filipino - descent elder came several times and affectionately sang familiar hometown melodies. The touching singing voices resonated with many people. Some clapped in accompaniment, while others listened quietly, with homesickness and emotion glistening in their eyes. On the other hand, several young people sat around the speaker and joyfully sang pop songs with "monster sound effects", which brought bursts of laughter from the surrounding audience, and the atmosphere on the scene was relaxed and pleasant.
Many children even regard Ikarao as their own "mini - stage". They sing again and again, taking turns to use the microphone and are reluctant to leave. Some children are still innocent - looking but are serious and devoted; some kids play tricks to grab the microphone, making parents clap and record this precious moment at the same time. There are also some audiences who spontaneously form groups to sing together. Before one song is finished, they order the next one, just like a "temporary family choir" during the festival.
Here, Ikarao is not just a karaoke device, but also a way to share time. It connects not only the microphone and the speaker, but also the tacit understanding between friends, the warmth within families, and the kind interactions between strangers. We are delighted to see that Ikarao is not just about "singing", but about "singing together".
Regardless of age, language, or singing skills, Ikarao provides a stage for every participant to express themselves, and once again proves that the charm of music knows no bounds.
Ikarao not only ignited the fiery scene, but also brought coolness. Ikarao's customized fans and T - shirts have become "popular items" at the festival.
In this passionate midsummer, Ikarao not only brought good music to the Fun Philippines Toronto cultural festival, but also presented a thoughtful touch of coolness. To express gratitude for the enthusiastic participation of the on - site audience, Ikarao specially customized a batch of brand - commemorative fans and cool short - sleeved T - shirts, which were given to everyone who came to the booth and dedicated their beautiful voices.
Many friends present said that this small gift was not only practical, but also made people feel the brand's sincerity and warmth. Just as Ikarao has always advocated - bringing not only good music, but also a good mood.
Ikarao Lights up the Toronto Summer: "Karaoke on the Go", Resonating with Culture and Memories
Based on the long - term strategic cooperation with KaraFun, Ikarao speaker products come with a vast library of officially licensed English songs, covering various categories from classic oldies to popular hits, and movie soundtracks, catering to different age groups and preferences. Users can quickly select songs through the speaker's touch - screen or by scanning a QR code with their mobile phones. The operation is intuitive and easy to master, making it accessible for both the elderly and children.
In addition to KaraFun, Ikarao also supports mainstream apps such as Spotify and YouTube. Whether it's a solo, a duet, or a group chorus, an Ikarao speaker can handle it with ease.
Toby, the CEO of the Ikarao brand, said on the spot:
Ikarao is not just a karaoke tool, it is a medium for connecting emotions and creating memories. We hope that every user, whether at home, by the seaside, or in a public space like a cultural festival, can find their own stage through Ikarao. Even singing an old song in the crowd is enough to light up the smiles of those around them.
