Leave a comment

June 8, 2019 – The first-ever Filipino Heritage Celebration in Lethbridge started with a bang! The Filipino-Canadian Association of Lethbridge, Alberta’s hardwork definitely paid off! It’s a day filled with fun games, fashion shows of traditional Filipiniana costumes, lots of vendors selling your favourite Filipino food and a good number of goosebumps-inducing song performances.

There are also folk dances performed by our talented dancers led by Regina Jing-Jing Lopez. Standing out is the “Sayaw sa Bangko” (Dance on a Bench) which is definitely not for people with a fear of heights!
