Tan-A-We Festival

March 10
Tanauan City

The Tan-a-we Festival is held every March 10 in Tanauan City. The name “Tan-a-we” comes from the Batangueño term tanaw-e, derived from tanaw, meaning “to look through.” The festival pays tribute to Tanauan’s historic role of watching over trade and travel—its identity linked to its vantage point by the waterways and land routes leading into the town. The event is also aligned with Tanauan’s cityhood anniversary and sets a tone of unity, progress and growth for the local community.
