In its debut participation at the Asia Cantate, the Mapúa Cardinal Singers performed in the Mixed Open Category, Chamber Category, and Folklore Category. The group ranked highest in all these three categories, nabbing a Gold Diploma for each. As a Grand Prix Finalist, the group was also crowned Category Champion in the Chamber Choir Category and Open Mixed Category.
