Dingdong, Marian at Tuna Festival

MANILA, Philippines - After spending quality time with each other during their vacation in Balesin, Quezon and Bali, Indonesia last month, Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes (photo) return to work and both are now off to bring a special treat to the country’s tuna capital, General Santos City, as they join in this year’s Tuna Festival celebration.

The real-life sweethearts are set to delight their fans via a Kapuso Fans’ Day happening today at  3 p.m. at the Events and Convention Center of KCC Mall of GenSan.

“It is always nice to get away for a few days with your special someone and come back rejuvenated for work. Actually, marami pa kaming gustong gawin ni Marian but we really need to go back para magtrabaho and here comes the Tuna Festival of GenSan,” shares Dingdong.

Also happening on the same day is the colorful tuna float parade, with a special coverage from GMA Network that will air on Sept. 15 via the network’s regional stations in Gensan, Davao and Cagayan de Oro.

Scheduled the next day, Chynna Ortaleza will be part of the fish fest which will take place at the city’s Fish Port from 6 a.m. to 12 noon.

Cast members of Annakarenina and My Husband’s Lover, meanwhile, are set to cap off the festivities via a Kapuso Mall Show on Sept. 7. At 4 p.m., supporters get to watch Joyce Ching, Krystal Reyes, Julian Trono, Hiro Magalona, Rodjun Cruz and Bettina Carlos perform live.
