BLPAPA's Bayanihan Festival is a vibrant celebration dedicated to honoring and showcasing Filipino and Filipino-American culture. The festival highlights the rich traditions of the Philippines through a diverse array of activities, including performances by local artists, traditional Philippine folk dances and music, and sometimes, appearances by well-known, larger Filipino artists. It also supports and promotes Filipino-owned businesses, creating a platform for them to connect with the community. A key focus of the festival is engaging the youth, aiming to strengthen their connection to Filipino heritage and combat the erosion of cultural identity. Overall, the Bayanihan Festival is a joyous occasion that fosters cultural pride, unity, and understanding.
BLPAPA's Bayanihan Festival kicked off its first event on October 8, 2023, turning a lifelong dream of CEO Edith Montemayor into reality. Planning started back in June 2023, and the festival quickly came together with exciting performances by Jules Aurora and Jamieboy. This debut was a huge hit, attracting over 5,000 people who enjoyed the performances of local artists and explored offerings from 70+ vendors. This landmark occasion set the stage for future celebrations, embodying a deep commitment to cultural pride and community connection.
