- Binirayan
"Retracing our roots; Celebrating our greatness.”
The Binirayan Festival was first witnessed on January 11-13, 1974, organized by Governor Evelio B. Javier in an effort to revisit the past and relive the province’s noble heritage. In this way, Evelio Javier believed the Antiqueño could gain confidence in charting his future.
After many years, the festival has evolved into one of the longest-running cultural festivals in the country, touted by many as the first original cultural festival in the region.
