See the sights and sounds of Christmas in the Philippines through the #FiestaFilipinas Giant Lantern Festival!

The Philippine Embassy in Wellington, New Zealand through the Department of Foreign Affairs, in partnership with the Department of Tourism and National Commission for Culture and the Arts, brings you this multi-sensory experience that will transport you from wherever you are in the world straight to the Philippines!

Celebrate the Giant Lantern Festival with the Philippines on 19 December 2020, 10:00 a.m. (PH Time) / (3:00 p.m. NZ time)!

The “Fiesta Filipinas: An Online Celebration of Philippine Festivals” project is a six-part, multi-format online event series from December 2020 until May 2021, which will simulate the experience of a festival through a combination of live and pre-recorded videos and live workshops and activities. The project aims to introduce and showcase Philippine festivals, culture, and traditions to our global audience and invite them to the country when conditions are more favorable.

The project is in cooperation with the Department of Tourism and National Commission for Culture and the Arts.
