PANAGBENGA 2022 | BAGUIO FLOWER FESTIVAL | UNIVERSITY OF THE CORDILLERAS | FESTIVAL DANCE CATEGORY | Panagbenga Festival (transl. Flower Festival) is a month-long annual flower occasion in Baguio. The term is of Kankanaey origin, meaning "season of blooming".[1] The festival, held in February, was created as a tribute to the city's flowers and as a way to rise up from the devastation of the 1990 Luzon earthquake.[2] The festival includes floats that are covered mostly with flowers not unlike those used in Pasadena's Rose Parade. The festival also includes street dancing, presented by dancers clad in flower-inspired costumes, that is inspired by the Bendian, an Ibaloi dance of celebration that came from the Cordilleras. The Bases Conversion Development Authority (BCDA), in collaboration with the John Hay Poro Point Development Corporation's (JPDC)[3] annual Camp John Hay Art Contest, gave its official logo from one of the entries: a spray of indigenous sunflowers from an artwork submitted by Trisha Tabangin, a student of the Baguio City National High School. The festival was set in February to boost tourism as it was considered as a time of inactivity between the busy days of Christmas season and the Holy Week and the summer season.[4] On 1996, archivist and curator Ike Picpican suggested that the festival be renamed as Panagbenga, a Kankanaey term that means "a season of blossoming, a time for flowering". In February 2020, the festival was initially postponed due to the threat of COVID-19, it was later then cancelled in March 2020.[5][6] The festival was later cancelled again in 2021, citing the severity of the Pandemic in the city. The funds on both cancelled events were diverted to the health situation. On March 6, 2022, the festival returned after 2 years of cancellation due to COVID-19 pandemic, but with limited events due to the ongoing crisis.[7][8]
