Global mobility platform inDrive is joining the MassKara Festival 2026 as its official mobility partner, helping residents and visitors navigate Bacolod City as it hosts one of the Philippines’ most celebrated festivals.
Although the festival runs from October 1 to 18, the main festivities are scheduled from October 9 to 18, drawing large crowds to key locations across the city. With increased activity, road closures, and heavier traffic around major festival venues, inDrive will provide festival-goers with a convenient mobility option to help them travel between different parts of Bacolod.
Find inDrive at Three MassKara Hubs
From October 9 to 18, festival-goers can visit inDrive booths at three key MassKara Festival locations:
- Lacson Tourism Strip — the city’s main street-party destination.
- Bacolod Public Plaza — home to nightly performances and food fairs.
- Bacolod City Government Center (BCGC) — the venue for daily main events.
Each booth will feature a MassKara-themed photo wall and a Spin the Wheel activity, giving visitors the opportunity to win exclusive inDrive merchandise.
To participate:
- Install the inDrive app to receive one spin.
- Present proof of an inDrive ride taken in October to gain access to all prize slots.
Prizes include inDrive umbrellas, caps, tote bags, fans, and keychains.
“MassKara is a celebration of Bacolod’s vibrant spirit and the community coming together, and we’re excited to be part of that experience as the festival’s official mobility partner. We know that getting around can be challenging when the city is at its busiest, so our goal is to help residents and visitors move between festival venues more conveniently and enjoy the celebrations with greater ease. We’re also happy to bring the MassKara spirit to our booths and give festival-goers a chance to engage with inDrive and take home some prizes along the way,” said Sofia Guinto, Country Manager of inDrive Philippines.
Supporting Mobility Throughout the Festival
In the lead-up to MassKara, inDrive has also expanded its visibility across Bacolod with the installation of 116 lamp-post banners along major routes and high-traffic areas. These banners will remain in place until October 31.
As part of its festival support, inDrive is also providing VIP transportation for MassKara queens, judges, and organizer staff throughout the main festival dates.
To help maintain driver availability during the period of heightened demand, drivers who complete rides in Bacolod during the festival can also earn fuel vouchers.
Through these initiatives, inDrive aims to enhance the overall MassKara experience by connecting festival-goers, drivers, and key festival destinations while contributing to the city’s vibrant celebration atmosphere.
