CONQuest Festival
CONQuest Festival was a series of annual gaming and pop culture conventions in the Philippines. Originally held in Iloilo City, Iloilo, the events grew in scope each year and were eventually moved into Metro Manila after the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.
ISC Events and Media organized the events in Iloilo, while AcadArena organized the events in Metro Manila. Justin Banusing was the Events Director at ISC Events before founding AcadArena in 2019.
The series was discontinued after the controversial CONQuest 2023.
