Vocal Groove Collective Returns to Nathan Phillips Square for the Mabuhay Philippines Festival!
The Vocal Groove Collective (VGC) is thrilled to return to the Mabuhay Philippines Festival 2026 at Toronto’s iconic Nathan Phillips Square!
Join us on Saturday, August 22, 2026, as we bring our signature blend of live vocals, choreography, and high-energy entertainment to one of the largest celebrations of Filipino culture in Canada.
This year, we’ll be performing fan favourites from our original album, PULSE—a dynamic collection of EDM, Progressive House, Funk, and Electro Pop that showcases the evolution of VGC’s original music. Expect powerful vocals, infectious dance beats, and an electrifying live performance that will keep the festival moving from beginning to end.
Whether you’ve been following VGC for years or will be seeing us for the first time, we’d love to have you celebrate this incredible weekend with us.
