In 2045, the concert hall's organization agreed to host the UP Namnama's Sirib ken Saririt Cultural Festival. The festival would normally be held in an elementary or high school in the region, however the UP Namnama decided to rent the Grand Hall and the Silver Hall, to accomodate more schools competing in the festival. All seats were occupied in the Grand Hall, and 3/4ths of the seats were occupied in the Silver Hall. Since then, the cultural festival has been hosted in both the Grand and Silver Halls every year. |

The Philharmonic Hall of the North (German: Philharmonie des Nordens) (German: [fˌɪlhaɾmoːnˈiː dˈɛs nˈɔɾdəns], also known by its shorter name Iloko Philharmonie, is a concert hall located in Laoag City, Ilocos Norte, Phillippines. It is known to be one of the Asia's most prestigious halls to perform in with a length of 52 m (171 ft), a width of 12 m (39 ft), and a height of 12 m (39 ft), with a total area of 624 m² and a total volume of 7488 m³. Co-architected by musician E. M. S. Balanag and architect Sabine Gonzales, the building was designed to be the main concert venue of the orchestra, symphonic chorale, rondalla, and dance ensembles of La Musique du Soleil. It is situated at the Laoag-Paoay Road, and construction began on September 14, 2032. Construction was officially completed on January 25, 2040. The building consists of six other halls, with the largest (Grand Hall - Großer Saal) being the most used.
History
After the successful inaugural concert of La Musique du Soleil, Balanag began planning for a grand concert hall for all ensembles to perform and reside in. He gathered an old draft of the first sketch of an early design he made back when he was 17 years old, and enlisted the help of his former classmate and architect Sabine Gonzales to improve on the design. Despite being a part-time architect, Balanag's design was praised by the construction workers and visual designers. Balanag and Gonzales finished the improved designs on June 23, 2032, and Balanag finished the miniature sculpture of the building on August 8, 2032.
Construction began on September 14, 2032. Subsequent concerts of La Musique du Soleil were still being held in the Centennial Arena for almost 8 years until construction finished on January 25, 2040.
The inaugural concert of the Philharmonic Hall of the North took place on December 23, 2040, and lasted for four hours, with a total of sixteen pieces and a lengthy intermission.
