Panagbenga 2013 with theme “A Blooming Odyssey” was graced by the City
Mayor Mauricio Domogan and some city government officials. This marks the
18th flower festival at the City Hall grounds and was witness by the residents,
city hall employees and various media personalities. During the event the

made public pertains only to the traditional activities being done during

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Benguet is among the provinces in the Philippines that indulged with great spirits in advocating tourism promotion, activities/events and as well as the products that are mass produced. An annual celebration of ADIVAY (an Ibaloi term meaning coming together) is held to commemorate the province founding anniversary and today's year marks it's 122th with the theme: Accelerating Response to Social Challenges. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The highlight of the said festival will be on November 23, the foundation day itself, declared as special non-working holiday in the province by virtue of 
Proclamation No. 485. There will be a cañao, an indigenous thanksgiving 
rites and other activities such as civic parade, a day for Overseas 
Filipino Workers and “I-Benguet ay nan abroad” (migrants abroad) who are
 welcome to join the activity, battle of the bands, and fireworks. </div>
