Toyota Classics 2018 breaks a new sales record

November 13,2018

Lea Salonga was this year’s special guest performer 

Toyota Motor Philippines held its annual Toyota Classics concert last November 7th and this year’s event reached a record-breaking ticket sales of over Php 2 million.

In line with its first global corporate initiative ‘Start Your Impossible’ (SYI), Toyota believes that mobility goes beyond cars and is about overcoming challenges and making dreams come true. With the theme, “Music that Moves Lives for All”, Toyota Classics has been touching the lives of people both within and beyond the concert hall, supporting people in realizing their dreams and celebrating their achievements. The proceeds from the ticket sales of this year’s Toyota Classics will go to the Philippine Paralympic Committee and Toyota’s SYI Hero Athlete and first Filipino Gold medalist, Para swimmer Ernie Gawilan.

With more than double the anticipated ticket sales, Toyota also donated one (1) unit of a 29-seater Coaster and Php 1 million for the purchase of multi-sports wheelchairs to support the Paralympic athletes in their transportation and training requirements. With better resources, the Philippines’ Para athletes can train and prepare better for their succeeding Paralympic competitions, hopefully enabling them to bring more pride to the country.
