After a series of meetings leading to the finalization by the LGU-Management Committee, as recently convened by Mayor Dante Dexter A. Agatep, Jr., here are the final events of the Lasam Town Fiesta 2024.
Saturday, June 8. The festivities are off to a healthy start with the usual FUN RUN, but now with a good CAUSE; gunstart at sunrise will be from the Cataliganan Ecopark. COLOR FUN RUN was only one of the many 2023 Tinupig Festival sports events, after all the pandemic limitations that we went through then.
The OPENING PARADE happens before sunset; then all barangay contingents converge at the Lasam Town Center for the BAYLE SA KALYE showdown.
Sunday, June 9. The Natalged A Lasam Arena, as it was in the COOKFEST SEASON 1 last year, transforms into one giant kitchen anew for COOKFEST SEASON 2. Come and watch how the Tinupig delicacy is elevated in flavor. Tastings may be offered for free.
A JOB FAIR also transpires all-day.
Monday, June 10. Pista ngayon ng mga magsasakang Lasameño; itatampok ang best practices in agriculture, palay man o mais, cacao o niyog at iba pang high-value crops, paghahayupan o pagpapalaisdaan. It’s also the day for our pets.
May pa-BINGO sa hapon; kung wala kang suwerte, halina’t makisaya sa VARIETY SHOW kinagabihan.
Tuesday, June 11. Lasam has a growing community of riders who will speed around town today for the RIDE WITH A PURPOSE, or two: to promote road safety and share their blessings.
Passionate about music? NALA will host the town’s first BATTLE OF THE BANDS tonight.
Wednesday, June 12. May maagang Flagraising Ceremony para sa pag-alala sa ating ARAW NG KALAYAAN.
Then, you are invited to the COMMUNITY NIGHT in the evening.
Thursday, June 13. Come and join the ALDAW TI LASAM Thanksgiving Mass. At night, a new BB. LASAM is crowned. If you are elsewhere, watch the coronation via Facebook Live, like how it was last year. 👉https://fb.watch/s2dg2jfa_k/?
Finally, let’s usher in the 75th ALDAW TI LASAM with a COUNTDOWN and a FIREWORKS DISPLAY. For the Diamond Founding Anniversary of our beloved town on June 13, 2025 is its biggest milestone so far.#
