Philippine Festival in Yeouido

Seoul will once again set the stage for a multicultural fanfare as the Philippine Embassy organizes the “Philippine Festival in Yeouido.”

The daylong celebration of Filipino culture will be enjoyed through songs, dances and traditional games scheduled to be held at the Yeouido Hanggang Park on May 29.

The annual festival, which attracts hundreds of Filipinos, Koreans and enthusiasts of Filipino culture from all over the country, will include a housing fair and other onsite services such as labor counseling and medical services.

Cultural performances and traditional Filipino games for multicultural children will follow a brief ceremony in the morning, when the Philippine Embassy will hand out awards to individuals and groups who provided invaluable assistance to Filipino migrants in 2010.

Organized in commemoration of the 113th anniversary of Philippine Independence and the 16th Migrant Workers’ Day of the Philippines, the Festival is being arranged in partnership with several local government organizations.
