About Cebu Festivals

Every town and city in Cebu Province celebrates their own unique festival, often dedicated to their patron saint or a local product, tradition or industry. These festivals showcase the rich culture, history, and faith of Cebuanos.

The most famous festival is the Sinulog Festival in Cebu City, honoring the Santo Niño (Holy Child Jesus), but each of the province's 44 towns and 9 cities has their own colorful celebration worth experiencing.

The festival dates provided are the town fiesta dates. Some festivals may have activities extending over several days or even weeks leading up to the main celebration day.
