DESCRIPTION

Join us for the 27th Annual Parol Festival at the PASACAT Center on Saturday, December 9. After tours to Greece and Hawaii this year, PASACAT is proud to come home and share the Philippine Christmas traditions with you through music, song and dance and a Parol Exhibit.

 
 
The PASACAT collection of Parols will be exhibited to create the Philippine Parol Village. Included are the six-foot traditional star parol made in 2003 by local artist Jose Morales, Jr. who made an additional
100 parols for PASACAT to use in Sayaw Sa Parol. 
 
 
 
In 2019, PASACAT received a twelve foot Giant San Fernando Parol from Governor Dennis G. Pineda of Pampanga Province and serves as the anchor for the Parol Festival.
 
 
Vendors will be on hand to provide food and goods just in time for the holiday season.
