The people of Apayao celebrate the Apayao Founder’s Day to reminisce with joy the invaluable contributions of the late Hon. Elias K. Bulut, Sr. (EKB), who made possible the separation of then one province of Kalinga-Apayao. The celebration is pursuant to a Provincial Ordinance enacted on 2017 by the Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Apayao.

It is on this day that the Bulut family along with the people of Apayao gathered together at the statue of EKB erected in front of the Municipal Hall of Calanasan and celebrates his birthday which Governor Bulut said with a grinn, “When he was alive, he does not celebrate his birthday on May 18 because he rather celebrates my birthday on May 15. But now, it is time for me to repay what he did, that is, I no longer celebrate my birthday on time but rather celebrate in his birth day.  Read More:  http://www.baguioheraldexpressonline.com/apayao-celebrates-provincial-founders-day/

Considered as Apayao’s grandest, this festival marks the founding anniversary of the province every February 14. It is Isneg’s traditional way of offering thanksgiving to Alawagan, or the unseen supreme god through native chants, songs and dances called talip and tad-do. There are other activities during the festival such as indigenous games, sports, street dancing, and the Search for Miss Dayag ti Apayao.  Read More: https://www.yapak.ph/where-to-go/apayao-1481
