Tapusan Mayflower Festival
Celebrated every May 31st, Tapusan Mayflower Festival exhibits activities like Kaligya Street Dancing and Grandest Float Procession. Float, in Tagalog, is called karosa – an artistically designed structure over a vehicle which is commonly used in parades and festivals. And now, it has its own festival in the humble town of Alitagtag. Although Tapusan Mayflower Festival isn’t spearheaded by the Catholic Church nor the local government unit of Alitagtag, it is purely a religious activity run by “Kapisanans” or different organizations of Barangay. As time went by, karosas or floats of different barangays of Alitagtag evolved from simple flowers to almost a hundred thousand lighting bulbs with the best of the best architecture made by cooperation of the people of Alitagtag.
