We Filipinos love to have fun. Different provinces celebrate their own Fiesta (feasts) every month. Because the religion in the Philippines is predominantly Catholic, most fiestas are celebrated to give thanks to the towns' patron saints. There are lots of parades with colorful costumes, lots of singing and dancing...and the best thing about it??? LOADS OF FOOD!!!! Here are some of them. Enjoy!^_^


CARABAO FESTIVAL
(Pulilan, Bulacan) - Celebrated every May 15, feast day of San Isidro Labrador, patron saint of farmers. Carabaos are dressed and taken to the church where the priest would bless them. After that, they will be parade in the streets.

PAHIYAS FESTIVAL
