LUBI-LUBI FESTIVAL

Lubi-lubi festival is considered a trademark festival for the town of Calubian. It is also considered one among the important activities during the annual fiesta celebration of the town. Dancers are usually being decorated with different parts of coconut tree such as cocoshell crafts, cocoleaves, midribs and others.


For the past years, the festival had been challenged for its existence. Last year, it was revived as the new administration took over the reign of the municipal government. However, the newly concluded fiesta was very critical for the festival to almost just die in its natural death. It was because many of the towns who signifies its intention to join the festival had incurred much expenditures in joining the Kasadyaan Festival of Festivals sponsored by the Provincial Government. With only two contingent, the festival was pushed through just to sustain its survival. The LGU of Calubian has expressed its heartfelt gratitude to the Naval State University delegation for its strong support to make the festival sustaining.
