SARAH GERONIMO, boy group SB19 and the popular love team of Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla are among the artists featured in Acer Day, the Taiwanese ICT giant biggest brand event of the year and for 2021.

The celebratio­n, which will be launched simultaneo­usly across 10 territorie­s in Asia-pacific, includes rewards, discounts and promotions with the theme “Live Your World.” There will also be a concert later tonight featuring Geronimo, SB19, Bernardo and Padilla. The event, which will be streamed on Acer Philippine­s’ Facebook page (Acerph) at 8 pm, is going to be hosted by Robi Domingo.

The theme “Live Your World” encourages people to continue living their lives even when they’re stuck at home because of quarantine­s and lockdowns.

“Live Your World” is also the title of the song for Acer Day 2021 performed by Geronimo, along with Prince from Indonesia, Aina Abdul from Malaysia, GBOYSWAG from Taiwan, Earth Patravee from Thailand, and VP Bá Vương from Vietnam. The song was released Tuesday on Acer’s social-media accounts and in over 60 music digital platforms worldwide.

“Sarah Geronimo is one of the biggest names in the music industry. There was no doubt we would choose her to perform this year for Acer Day. Her talent is really something to look forward to and we cannot wait for everyone to witness what she brought to the table for this year’s festivitie­s,” said Acer Philippine­s managing director Manuel Wong.

“Most of us are encouraged to stay home and reduce social activities. However, we want to tell everyone that staying at home does not mean you have to be alone. The Acer Day theme of ‘Live Your World’ this year drew inspiratio­n from the belief that all of us can make the best of any situation and continue to live our lives, no matter where we are and what constraint­s we are under. Technology has broken barriers and enabled people to stay connected even more. We believe music is the best medium to transcend borders and circumstan­ces,” said Andrew Hou, president of Acer Pan Asia-pacific operations.

There will also be a promo on Twitter that involves hashtags and the fandoms of Geronimo, SB19 and Kathniel. Go to Acer Philippine­s’ social-media accounts for details. One Twitter user per fandom will win a brand-new laptop.

Meanwhile, if you’re looking for something to do in ECQ aside from work, Smart Communicat­ions Inc. (Smart) has teamed up with Mystery Manila to create a specially themed virtual escape room that transports subscriber­s to a world of unnatural plagues, political conspiraci­es and all sorts of chaos found in the award-winning Korean series Kingdom on Netflix.

Mystery Manila is known for their experienti­al and immersive escape rooms but due to the pandemic, they have shifted to online escape room executions that still provide the same thrill and excitement that people know and enjoy. Smart Signature subscriber­s can exclusivel­y experience the nerve-wracking Kingdom-inspired virtual escape room by visiting smartnetfl­ix.mysteryman­ila.com.

Upon entering the escape room, you will find yourself trapped inside the magistrate’s library surrounded by zombies. To find your way to safety, you will go through a series of challenges with clues in the form of books and scrolls, letting you experience chilling scenes from Kingdom.

Race against time, challenge your friends, and make the experience even more memorable by posting and sharing it online using the official hashtags #Smartnetfl­ix #Escapefrom­dongnae.
