Every February, the quiet town of Daraga, Albay bursts into life with color, dance, and culture as it celebrates the Cagsawa Festival — a month-long tribute that blends remembrance, resilience, and revelry. Set against the majestic backdrop of Mayon Volcano, this festival transforms the historic Cagsawa Ruins Park into a vibrant stage where the Bicolano spirit shines brightest.
