To have the Festival of Festivals running smoothly are a lot of hands needed. We always want to honor the people behind the scene. Without them any festival anywhere in the world would not taking place. We want to say thank you to all helpers involved and like to share some pictures of the construction work going on at the capitol area while busy hands building the municipality booths

It seems that their is no originality in your mardi gras. It does not depict the real cultural heritage of Negros Oriental. I don’t see natives from Canlaon, or Guihulngan, or ayungon took the streets and dance colorfully once upon a time, or neither it portrays any cultural events. It is just a copycat from sinulog, brazil carnival etc…
Good day Mr Lim
and thank you for your comment. Like the saying goes: “Don’t kill the messenger”. We just publish the schedule of events and have no further connection to the government of Negros Oriental and its organizers of Buglasan 2014.
The organizer is (to our best knowledge) the Negros Tourism Office located at Sidlakan Negros Village in E. J. Blanco Drive, Dumaguete City. They would be the office to address your concerns.
We are convinced, they appreciate constructive criticism and suggestions how to improve the event.
