Get ready for a vibrant celebration as the Bacolaodiat Festival 2025 is set to take place from January 31 to February 2, 2025.
The much-awaited festival will once again transform Lacson Street into a festive hub, with the main activities happening from 5th to 14th Lacson Street.
Festival chair John Stephen Sy announced that the North Capitol Road will also be a major venue for the event, featuring the popular Chopsticks Alley. To cater to the diverse activities, three stages will be set up along Lacson Street throughout the three-day celebration.
Preparations are in full swing as organizers are currently putting up Chinese lanterns along Lacson Street to create a festive atmosphere.
Councilor Jason Villarosa, chairperson of the city’s tourism committee, confirmed that the local government will continue to provide a subsidy of 5 million pesos to support the festival.
A series of pre-festival activities are also lined up to build up excitement for the main event. The organizers are currently finalizing the list of performers who will grace the stages during the festival.
Just like the snake sheds its skin, we welcome the Lunar New Year with fresh beginnings and boundless energy, the organizers said in a statement posted on their Facebook page.
With its captivating blend of Chinese and Filipino cultures, the Bacolaodiat Festival is a must-see event for both locals and tourists.
