Much like its origins after the devastating 1990 Luzon earthquake, Panagbenga has flourished into a vibrant celebration held every February. The festival&#x27;s name, derived from the Kankanaey word meaning &#x27;season of blooming,&#x27; reflects the journey of transformation—just as petals unfurl under the sun, people, too, go through seasons of waiting, struggle, and triumph.For the 2025 Panagbenga Festival, <a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://manginasal.ph">Mang Inasal</a>, in partnership with the Department of Tourism, brought its &quot;Love the Flavors, Love the Philippines&quot; campaign to the heart of Baguio. The month-long festival, famous for its vibrant parades and rich cultural display, provided a stunning backdrop for Mang Inasal to highlight its beloved offerings that bring people together over great food. Following successful runs at Sinulog and Dinagyang, Mang Inasal made its mark at Panagbenga with a series of Unli-Saya (unlimited fun) events, creating unforgettable experiences for both locals and tourists alike. &quot;Mang Inasal is truly honored to partner with the Department of Tourism in sharing the flavors that define us,&quot; said Mike V. Castro, Mang Inasal President. &quot;This year, we&#x27;re inspired to continue sharing our Ihaw-Sarap food and the Unli-Saya experience of our customers, just as the Panagbenga Festival fills the streets with energy and excitement. Like the blooms of Panagbenga, we are proud to grow alongside our loyal customers.&quot; Festival goers were treated to a special Panagbenga Festival Deal from February 17 to 23, where they enjoyed a free small cola with the purchase of a Solo Fiesta Chicken Inasal and Extra Creamy Halo-Halo 8oz. The exclusive offer was available for dine-in and takeout at Mang Inasal Baguio locations.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1740369963195ABSCBNnews Pork BBQ Sampling.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="Mang Inasal Pork BBQ sampling.

Mang Inasal</div>At SM City Baguio, visitors enjoyed free samples of Pork BBQ; while at Melvin Jones, Burnham Park, Mang Inasal served its Ihaw-Sarap favorites through a special set-up Takeout Booth. The highlight of the festival was Mang Inasal&#x27;s participation in the Grand Float Parade, where the brand&#x27;s magnificent float, showcasing the beauty and flavors of the country, captivated the crowd. The &quot;Love the Flavors, Love the Philippines&quot; float was crowned Grand Champion in the Medium Float Category.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1740370217616ABSCBNnews Grand Float Parade.jpg" style="width:960px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt="Mang Inasal Grand Float Parade.

Mang Inasal</div>&quot;Just like the iconic landmarks that embody the beauty of the Philippines, Mang Inasal has become a destination for anyone seeking authentic flavors and memorable experiences,&quot; added Castro. To close the celebration, Mang Inasal will participate in the Fluvial Parade on February 27, offering a Halo-Halo sampling to festival goers at Burnham Park.In love, we learn that patience nurtures deep connections, just as a gardener tends to delicate buds before they fully blossom. In life, we face storms that challenge our strength, but much like the flowers of Panagbenga, we rise again, vibrant and full of hope. This festival reminds us that no matter how cold or barren a season may seem, blooming is always ahead, waiting for the right time. What is next for the &quot;Love the Flavors, Love the Philippines&quot; campaign? Stay tuned on <a class="fr-green fr-strong" href="https://manginasaldelivery.com.ph">manginasal.ph</a> for delivery deals, and follow Mang Inasal on social media for more Ihaw-Sarap and Unli-Saya updates and Mang Inasal&#x27;s social media for updates on future stops!
