Panagbenga Festival

Baguio City, February 1-March 3

ONCE again, Baguio is in bloom! Tourists and visitors will flock to this mountain city as it ushers Panagbenga. Indeed, Baguio exults of its multifarious blooms in different colors and extraordinary hues particularly its natural environment. The City Government and a host of compliant boosters can never be wrong in keeping the tradition and the faith that a bigger or a more successful event will be realized this time. Panagbenga is one of the most visited festival in the north.

Baguio, the city of flowers, the cloud kissed city with its sweet pine scented air and cold mornings, with its grandeur in terms of its beauty is literally littered with flowers blossoming in their splendor, is like a magnet that attracts everyone at its beck and call.
