Malabuyoc Cebu Fiesta BEST

In the Philippines a fiesta is usually celebrated in barrios or barangays. It is the official holiday of the LGU, the barangay. Filipinos love fiestas. It is a time for joy and celebration. A fiesta is of Spanish origin and is usually commemorated in association with a christian patron saint. Most barangays whose population have been clustered by Muslims(Moros) and their population is more than that of the Christians, the celebration of the fiesta have been cancelled and replaced with the Hari Raya or Eid al-Fitr.

The municipality of Malabuyoc launched the Binuyocan Festival on 10 September 2004, in time for the annual town fiesta. Local contingents paraded the streets. Binuyocan Festival has been part of the fiesta celebration in honor of Saint Nicholas of Tolentino since then.

August 28 is the fiesta of Cagayan de Oro City. Take Rural Transit or Bachelor Express bus. They ply the BuDa route (Bukidnon-Davao). It will take you around 7 hours. Aircon nonstop is 450 Pesos and 365 Pesos non aircon with stops. There are discounts for students. I am not sure of Davao to CDO schedule. It is best to take the early trip 5am or 6am since it rains heavily in the afternoon and portions of Davao area could get flooded. The bus will end its route in Agora Bus Terminal in Cagayan de Oro City.

Thanks, CDO. In fact the reason of us being in CDO at that time is the fiesta and other festivities. The Mayor of CDO extended this invitation to us. I and five other associates/constittuents from the States are heading to CDO with stopover in Manila, Fort Ilocandia, then to CDO for golf and other activities. I have been to CDO during the last PAL Golf Invitational and CDO is the host again for the upcoming tournament this February, 2007. You can be sure we will be there again. Now, I invited a good friend from Davao and I will be relaying your input to her. It will greatly help her tremendously since she hasn't been anywhere besides Davao. Thank you. 041b061a72
