FUN Philippines derives inspiration from the fun-loving nature of Filipinos, its diverse and colourful culture, as it aims to be more inclusive in its representation of Filipinos to the Canadian community. But the country's vibrant culture spreads in more than 7,000 islands, with each region offering its unique set of culture through distinct dialects, cuisine, values and activities. Colorful and vibrant activities showcasing Philippine culture will make its way on both days. Lively street dances, cultural installations, Filipino games, live painting and bayong making, kamayan and food demos and live entertainment will complete the festive atmosphere. Through a continued partnership with TFC or The Filipino Channel, Fun Philippines will have celebrities and performers from the Philippines. Well-loved local performers from Canada will also entertain the festival visitors through a concert and street party. FUN Philippines hopes to encourage reconnection between and among families and friends after the pandemic, while also supporting participating local businesses recover and thrive. FUN is positive, happy, vibrant, colorful - everything that the event is and aims to be.
