PHILFEST, short for "Philippine Festival" is one of the major Filipino events in the Tampa Bay Area. It is held annually during the first week of April, usually lasting a whole weekend, as it attempts to emulate the joyful celebrations of a typical Philippine Fiesta.
The 13th Annual Philippine Festival will be held on April 4-6, 2008 at the Bayanihan Arts and Events Center Philfest Grounds Tampa, FL. Activities will include arts and crafts shows, Filipino food and beverage festival, talent shows (attended by talented Fil-Am artists from all over the United States as well as showbiz talents from the Philippines), cultural exhibitions at the Bayanihan ARTS CENTER, "Tawag ng Tanghalan", a singing contest for adults and "Tanghalang Pambata", a talent contest for minors, fashion shows, parades and many more.
So, if you're from the Philippines and you're currently residing in the Tampa Bay Area or anywhere in the US, then you shouldn't miss this!
