Named after the words “niyog” and “yugyog,” the Niyogyugan Festival is a commemoration of the “Tree of Life,” a tribute to the glorious coconut industry. In celebration of the industry’s storied past and cultural present, the event entwines a series of Quezon Province’s brightest and most vibrant fiestas—Pahiyas in Lucban, Arana’t Baluarte in Gumaca, Tagultol in Atimonan, Maubanog in Mauban and more.
The Niyogyugan Festival is a tribute to the old days of the coconut industry. It’s meant to keep the grand tradition alive while also promoting the modern products, places, and talents of Quezonians everywhere. As part of the calendar of activities, there’ll be Sayaw ng Niyog, Karosa ng Niyog, Bb. Niyogyugan, and a booth competition.

Every year, the Niyogyugan Festival brings people together to share smiles, laughter, stories and facts – so if you’re in Quezon Province, this is one not to miss! We may have a colorful past, but our history is richer and promises a brighter future. The Niyogyugan Festival proves this and celebrates every aspect of Quezonians’ lives and loves.
