Bahaghari Festival is a reflection of the first Pinamalayeños' joy and thanksgiving for the divine guidance of a rainbow that guided them through a raging sea towards a land of promise and bounty. This "Celebration of Colors" represents the vivid flavors of Pinamalayan that are as varied and mesmerizing as rainbow hues.
