3-Day Festival Production Management Workshop

In Bataan, every celebration is a chance to share a piece of who we are. Through festivals, visitors get to see the colors of our culture, taste our local flavors, meet our communities, and discover the stories that make a place worth coming back to.

On September 15, 2026, the Provincial Tourism Office, in partnership with the Department of Tourism (DOT), officially began the 3-Day Festival Production Management Workshop, bringing together local artists, tourism officers, and tourism stakeholders for three days of learning, collaboration, and shared experiences.

Guiding the participants throughout the workshop are resource speakers Mr. Leonilo C. Agustin, Mr. Matthew T. Manalaysay, and Mr. Jose Christe Nombres, who are sharing their knowledge and insights on festival production and management.

The first day of the workshop marks another step toward strengthening the way we plan, develop, and manage festivals in Bataan. Through learning sessions, discussions, and shared experiences, tourism stakeholders are given the opportunity to deepen their understanding of what makes a festival not only enjoyable but meaningful, well-organized, sustainable, and truly reflective of the destination.

Because behind every lively parade, music, and celebration are people working together to tell the story of a place. And here in Bataan, we want every story to be worth experiencing. Together, let us continue to celebrate what makes Bataan special.
