| Quezon Prov. - May Festivities! |
|
Big events in Quezon Province in the Philippines on the month of May! (Note that these are the only real big ones that I know of. I don't know much, though :'p)
May 15th, Lucban - home of the longganisang Lucban, Mt. Banahaw, and... other stuff >> Pahiyas Festival! (It's been featured on Discovery Channel, among others =');
May 25th or 26th-29th - Lucena City - the capital of Quezon Province >> Pasayahan sa Lucena! - a week-long event that terminates in the Feast of St. Ferdinand. The festivities happen during the week towards the feast day. Weird that the feast day is the laid-back day. Dozens of local bands performing simultaneously in bars or in at least 5 different streets in the heart of the city. About a half kilometer of closed road packed with scores of wandering, eating, laughing, sweating, dancing.... aimless people. Of course, lots and lots of stalls of various merchandise and services. Parades. Dancing contests. Battles of the bands. Cooking contests. Beauty contests. Lots more :'o
Come on! Plug these into your schedules! Questions about these? Pinch me ='D
