It highlights Vigan's rich culture and traditional industry. Binatbatan Festival has its origins in Vigan's abel weaving business, which existed long before the Spaniards arrived to colonize the Philippines. According to Damaso King, a well-known Vigan historian, the Viva Vigan Binatbatan Festival of the Arts, which runs from the last week of April to the first week of May, was originally the Feast of the Natives, which began on May 3, 1883. People have been gathering to the cemetery chapel named Simbaan a Bassit to hear Holy Mass and continue their devotion to Apo Lakay on Fridays and the third day of May since then.

  The holidays are approaching. The days of December have begun, and you can feel the cool breeze. It's time to set up a Christmas tree and begin decorating our halls with twinkling lights. It's time to reflect on the value of love. Giving and sharing gifts with friends and family is an important part of the Christmas season. Let us put our problems aside and rejoice in the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Christmas teaches us that, despite the pandemic's challenges, we must never forget the significance of joy and happiness. It is a tradition that helps us shape and keep our family connected in a special way over the holiday season.

This explains everything that Christmas spirits are truly in our hearts.
