Masskara Festival, the most colorful, loudest and one of the bests – if not the best – is already starting knocking on your calendars with a month to go before October.
Thousands of tourists all around the Philippines and the world are already packing their bags and hurry to book their tickets and accommodations to get to the city that never frowns, Bacolod, making it the ‘city of smiles’.

The best thing about Masskara Festival is that you can never feel alone even if you travel all by yourself. Wearing your smiling mask, you can dance your heart out with the crowd in the tune of canned and live band music trumpeted by huge audio systems all around the streets.
You can get lost to a kilometer of kiosks smoking with grilled chicken inasal (roasted chicken) which is the muse of every table, escorted with beer and other dishes.
Have fun in Bacolod City, the city of smile.
