The Mango Festival of Zambales

Highlights of the festival are the Mango Eating Challenge, Street Parade, Float Competition, Mango-themed Street Dance, Trade Fair, and Variety Show.

Taste for yourself how sweet Zambales mangoes are, and join the locals as they exult in the blessing of having the sweetest mangoes in the world!
