Panagbenga 2022 Schedule of Activities

Team Out of Town Blog Hub (Outoftownblog.com) – The iconic Panagbenga Festival or Flower Festival of Baguio City has long been one of the most awaited celebrations in the country since it was founded more than 30 years ago. The Panagbenga Festival symbolizes the unparalleled creativity, colorful history, and spectacular teamwork of all Filipinos, especially the citizens of Baguio. This lively and colorful festival lasts for one whole month where countless dazzling and vibrant displays of the City of Pines’ colorful flowers are beautifully presented to visitors all over the city!

Now that our country is approaching the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, hopefully, it’s my pleasure to report to you that our most awaited Panagbenga Festival is now returning this 2022! After being postponed for two (2) years because of the health crisis, visitors are now encouraged by Vaccine Czar Carlito Galvez to join and have fun in Baguio City during the festival. Of course, as much as we’d love to go out there and interact with a massive crowd like before, I’m afraid these gatherings are still prohibited to prevent the possible scenario where COVID-19 cases rise once again.

So, are you ready for an exciting flowery summer in Baguio City? Well, this is the perfect time to discover Cordillera’s must-visit tourist attractions and, at the same time, enjoy the province’s rich culture, colorful tradition, and dazzling display of flowers. Suit yourselves because Baguio City Blooms Once Again with the Panagbenga Festival 2022!
