All systems go for Davao de Oro's Bulawan Festival


The province of Davao de Oro is gearing up for a momentous celebration as it marks its silver founding anniversary in conjunction with the Bulawan Festival 2023. This event is set to take place on March 6-8, 2023 at the provincial capitol in Davao de Oro, a province located in the southeastern part of the Philippines.


The Bulawan Festival is an annual event that celebrates the province's rich cultural heritage, the bountiful harvest of its farmers, and the golden-hearted people.  The festival's name is derived from the local word for gold, which is a significant resource in the area. It is an opportunity for the people of Davao de Oro to showcase their traditions and customs, including traditional dances, songs, and costumes.

The festival's 2023 edition holds particular significance to its 25 years of service as it carries the theme, "25 ka tuig nga mapasalamatung pagpangalagad."  This milestone highlights the progress and development of Davao de Oro since its inception as a separate province from Davao del Norte in 1998.


The Bulawan Festival 2023 and the province's 25th founding anniversary will be marked by a series of events and activities that aim to celebrate the culture, heritage, and progress of Davao de Oro. These events include motorcade and float parades, cultural performances, talent showcases, trade fairs, nightly concerts, jobs fair, and free legal services day, among others.

In addition, a "Bulawanong Hatud Serbisyo"  will have different agencies pooling for medical and dental outreach and other services to geographically isolated and disadvantaged areas  (GIDA) in Mawab, Compostela, Montevista, and Laak on March 4, 11, 18 and 25, respectively.

Another highlight of the festival is the Trade Expo and Furniture Fair which will showcase the province's abundant agricultural products. This fair provides a platform for farmers and agri-entrepreneurs to promote and sell their products to a wider audience.



The celebration of the Bulawan Festival 2023 and the 25th founding anniversary of Davao de Oro serves as a testament to the resilience, creativity, and unity of the province's people. It is an occasion for them to come together, celebrate their heritage, and showcase their achievements. More than just a festival, it is an expression of the province's identity and a symbol of its bright and golden future.




The Bulawan Festival and 25th Founding Anniversary are brought to you by the provincial government of Davao de Oro, co-presented by the Apex Mining Co., Inc, and SILVER PARTNERS: Diatech Laboratory Supplies Co., Inc with ComVal Capitol Multi-Purpose Cooperative (CCMPC).
