I put together a little clip for PhilFest 2024!
PhilFest 2024, by the Philippine Cultural Foundation, Inc., proudly upholds the cherished tradition of spotlighting and celebrating Filipino culture in a dynamic three-day festival held at its home facility, the Philippine Cultural Enrichment Complex in Tampa, Florida.
At PhilFest, the sensory experience is nothing short of spectacular, with a myriad of vendors enticing visitors with exotic Filipino delicacies, authentic Philippine merchandise, and captivating service exhibits.
The PhilFest stage will be an extravaganza of non-stop entertainment, featuring mesmerizing performances by PCFI’s resident performing groups and culturally rich showcases by visiting artists from various states, including the vibrant talents from Canada. The festival promises an array of engaging segments such as the “Tanghalang Pambata” Talent Competition for Children, “Tawag ng Tanghalan” Singing Competition for Adults, “Revolution” Youth Night, “Yugyugan” Street Dancing, “Flores de PhilFest”, and a host of other captivating events!
In the spotlight, PhilFest 2024 will conduct the search for the next “Miss/Mrs PhilFest” from a pool of contestants, each representing her respective Filipino-American organization. Attendees can look forward to witnessing these contestants, along with other vibrant participants, in spirited street parades like “Flores de PhilFest” and the grand “PhilFest Parade.”
Over at the Bayanihan Arts and Events Center, the Philippine Embassy extends its consular services through the Embassy Consular Outreach, culminating in a heartfelt dual-citizenship ceremony for new Filipino-Americans.
Now in its 28th year, PhilFest proudly stands as a cornerstone Philippine festival in the southeastern United States, annually attracting a diverse audience of approximately twelve to fifteen thousand visitors.
