Welcome to the Ibalong Festival 2025 Grand Opening Parade in Legazpi City, Albay – one of the most colorful and legendary celebrations in the Philippines! 🎉

This spectacular parade marks the start of the Ibalong Festival, a celebration inspired by the ancient Ibalong Epic, where mythical heroes fought monstrous creatures to bring peace and prosperity to Bicol. Every year, Legazpi City turns into a living stage where history, folklore, and artistry collide.

✨ In this video, you’ll witness:

🥁 Thunderous drumbeats and street dancers filling the boulevard with energy and rhythm.
🎭 Elaborate costumes and masks representing heroes like Baltog, Handyong, and Bantong, alongside mythical creatures such as Oryol the serpent, giant wild boars, and Rabot the half-man, half-beast.
🚩 Community groups, schools, and performers showing their creativity with floats decorated with Bicolano symbols and Mayon Volcano-inspired designs.
🌋 The spirit of unity and pride of the Bicolanos as they welcome visitors from across the Philippines and around the world.

Unlike many Philippine fiestas that are religious in nature, the Ibalong Festival is a cultural celebration that highlights bravery, resilience, and optimism—qualities that reflect the heart of the Bicolano people. The opening parade is just the beginning: expect trade fairs, sports competitions, nightly concerts, food festivals, and more cultural shows throughout the celebration.

Whether you’re here to learn about Bicol’s epic legends, to enjoy the performances, or to discover a new travel destination, the Ibalong Festival 2025 is an unforgettable experience.
