TAMBOBO FESTIVAL
Municipality of Ajuy
Every 2nd week of September
Tambobo is a Hiligaynon term for a depository for goods, = storehouse for threshed grain or animal feed or a bin or granary for storing grains mostly made from hand-woven bamboo slits. The festival, as the term denotes, is the presentation of the municipality’s incomparable and unequalled bliss of human, material and natural wealth. Witness and enjoy its cultural performances marked by a lavish feast thanking God for the crops that would sustain their community.
Ajuynons showcase their human and natural resources through exhibits, cultural performances and through a lavish feast as a thanksgiving to God for this year’s abundance of crops.
