The International Hospitality Academy of the Philippines (IHAOP) has put together the perfect playlist for any occasion, whether you’re looking for chilled-out background music or upbeat party tunes. These playlist expertly blends classic alcohol-themed songs with a variety of genres, ensuring that there’s something for everyone.

Let’s start with the chilled-out and romantic side of things. The playlist kicks off with “Smooth” by Santana, setting the mood for a relaxing martini straight up. Next up is “Margaritaville” by Jimmy Buffett, the perfect song for those dreamy beach days spent sipping on a margarita. As the sun begins to set, we move into bossa nova territory with “Girl from Ipanema” by Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto. This classic tune is the perfect soundtrack for those romantic walks on the beach.

For those who prefer their evenings a bit livelier, the playlist transitions seamlessly into high-energy club music. “Love Shack” by The B-52s gets the party started with its upbeat tempo and quirky lyrics. As the night wears on, “Don’t Stop Believin'” by Journey takes things up a notch, encouraging everyone to keep dancing until the early hours. When you’re ready to slow things down again, “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor provides the perfect anthem for those late-night make-out sessions.

But wait, there’s more! This playlist wouldn’t be complete without some festive holiday music. “Jingle Bell Rock” by Bobby Helms gets everyone in the holiday spirit, while “Winter Wonderland” by Perry Como is the perfect accompaniment to sipping hot cocoa by the fire. And of course, no New Year’s Eve celebration would be complete without Frank Sinatra crooning “New York, New York.”

So whether you’re hosting a themed party, relaxing on the beach, or getting ready to hit the club, IHAOP’s playlist has you covered. With a mix of classic tunes and modern hits, you’ll be sure to find the perfect soundtrack for any occasion. Cheers!
