CEBU CITY, Philippines – Acting Mayor Raymond Alvin Garcia expressed his pride and honor that Pasigarbo sa Sugbo is finally “back where it belongs.” The Pasigarbo sa Sugbo, an annual cultural festival celebrating Cebu’s founding anniversary, is scheduled for August 25, 2024.
The Provincial Capitol, the head organizer, is partnering with Cebu City for this year’s festival, which will return to the Cebu City Sports Center (CCSC). In 2023, it was held in Carcar City.This year, 51 contingents from various local government units (LGUs) across the province will compete, with Cebu City’s Sinulog Festival, to be represented by the Banauan Cultural Group, serving as guest contingent. “There is no fitting venue to host and hold it but in the capital of Cebu—Cebu City. And we are proud and honored that finally, Pasigarbo is back to where it belongs,” Garcia said during the final coordination meeting with Governor Gwendolyn Garcia at the Capitol on August 23. According to a report from Sugbo News, the meeting was attended by various department heads from City Hall, police and military officials, telecommunications company representatives, Visayan Electric Company representatives, and others. Garcia assured his aunt, Gov. Garcia, of the full support from the Cebu City Government, particularly from the departments that have been working tirelessly to ensure the event’s success.
