Festivals in the Philippines

Hello everyone,

What are the main festivals in the Philippines? Are there art, food, music, film, or other festivals expats can attend and participate in?

When do the festivals take place? How long does each festival usually last?

What activities go on during the festival? Is it necessary to buy tickets?

Are there any other events that take place in the Philippines that shouldn't be missed?

Thank you for sharing your experience.
