2. Panagbenga Festival is a month-long annual flower
festival occurring in Baguio, the summer capital of
the Philippines.The term is of Malayo-Polynesian origin,
meaning "season of blooming". The festival, held during the
month of February, was created as a tribute to the city's
flowers and as a way to rise up from the devastation of
the 1990 Luzon earthquake. The festival includes floats that
are covered mostly with flowers not unlike those used
in Pasadena’s Rose Parade. The festival also includes street
dancing, presented by dancers clad in flower-inspired
costumes, that is inspired by the Bendian, an Ibaloi dance of
celebration that came from the Cordillera region. Aside from
economic boosts from tourism, the festival also helped the
younger generation of indigenous people to rediscover their
culture's old traditions. The indigenous people was first wary
with government-led tourism because of the threat that they
will interfere or change their communities' rituals.

annual Camp John Nichol Sibug art contest
gave its official logo: a spray of sunflowers. The
festival was set in February to boost tourism as
it was considered as a month of inactivity
between the busy days of Christmas
season and the Holy week and the summer
season.
In 1996, archivist and curator Ike Picpican
suggested that the festival be renamed as
Panagbenga, a Kankanaey term that means "a
season of blossoming, a time for flowering"
