Julius Babao Airs Dismay to Organizer of ConQuest 2023 Over Long Lines
Veteran broadcaster Julius Babao slammed the organizer of ConQuest 2023 after people starts to flock resulting in long lines.
The broadcaster lamented the long line of people dressed in costumes for CONQuest 2023 on Twitter. The CONQuest 2023 event was hosted at the SMX Convention Center, where some guests complained about questionable ticket sales management, which resulted in the facility filling capacity.
“Sino ba organizer nitong #ConQuest sa SMX ? Ang laki daw ng nakokektang bayad ng entrance dito pero mukhang nag-oversell ng tickets! Tingnan nyo ang mga bata naka heavy costume pa tapos pinapila ng milya milya sa ilalim ng init ng araw! Bakit pinapayagan ito ng SM Management???” Babao’s rant on Twitter post.
“Pumila na sa paligid ng SMX mga bata kahit sobrang init! hanggang sa loob pila pa din! Walang binatbat dito ang mga pila sa Disneyland at Universal Studios!” he added.
The queue was good on the first day of the event, June 2, according to the report, but guests began grumbling on Saturday, June 3 in the morning. The organizers apologized for the inconvenience caused by the lengthy line and promised a refund.
“Overpromised, undelivered. I know you’ve been looking forward to this event all-year and it sucked that not everyone who wanted to experience CQ was able to do so. Worse is that I hyped it up a LOT – and hype means nothing when you cannot enjoy it,” said AcadArena co-founder and CONQuest head organizer Justin Banusing in a FB post.
“I know everyone cannot experience CQ the way they hoped for. I cannot refund the time and effort that you guys committed for this event, but ticket REFUNDS will happen. This is the very least I can do to start earning back whatever trust you have in me,” he added.
