what do you think is our lesson for
today? It’s all about Festivals!
Right.
What does festival or fiesta means?
You are all correct. (answers may vary)

Filipinos are fanatics of festivals. In

fact there are approximately 300
different festivals all over the
Philippines. Their themes are also
differ from one another. Festivals are
celebrated to give honor for their
saints, for good harvest, for their
crops and products and also for their
rituals and traditions.
Today, we are going to focus on the
well-known festivals from Luzon,
Visayas and Mindanao.
The first one is from Luzon
and that is… (a student will read from
my visual aid and then I will show the Panagbenga Festival – The flower
pictures and videos of that festival) festival of Baguio City which is
celebrated for month long through
parade of floats that are decorated
with flowers. This is being held every
month of February as a way to
commemorate the rise up from the
devastation of the 1990 Luzon
earthquake.

Another from Luzon is the Pahiyas Pahiyas Festival - colorful feast

festival, please somebody read.
celebrated every 15th of May by the
people of Lucban, Quezon in honor of
San Isidro Labrador. It is the farmers'
thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest
with a grand display of colorful rice
wafers, fruits, vegetables, and
handicrafts adorning every house in
the town.

Now Let’s go to Visayas. Sinulog Festival - This is an annual

festival being held every third Sunday
of January in Cebu City, Maasin City,
Southern Leyte, and Balingasag,
Misamis Oriental in the Philippines.
The festival commemorates the
 Filipino people's pagan origin, and
their acceptance of Roman
Catholicism.

The Ati-Atihan Festival is a feast held

annually in January in honor of the
Santo Niño (Infant Jesus), concluding
on the third Sunday, in the island and
town of Kalibo, Aklan in the
Philippines. The festival consists of
tribal dance, music, accompanied by
indigenous costumes and weapons,
and parade along the street.

One of the most the popular is the
Masskara Festival.
The Masskara Festival - a festival held
each year in Bacolod, Philippines,
every third weekend of October
nearest October 19. The word
"Masskara" is from the word mass (a
multitude of people), and the Spanish
word cara (face). Masskara means
multitude of faces.

Other Festivals are geared towards

cultural preservation and tourism
such as Dinagyang in Ilo-ilo,
Kadayawan in Davao, Kasadyaan in
Tacloban, Moriones in Marinduque,
Lechon in Batangas, and thousands of
others.

The creativity and uniqueness of the

Filipinos are highlighted in those
festivals and we should be proud of it.
Each Filipino is an artist. We may
have our differences but there is
always greatness in us and we should
be able to show and develop it.
