About the Festival

As historians say, Calapan comes from the word 'kalap' believed to be a kind of tree. Others say 'kalap' means the process of gathering wood. From this research, it developed into a deeper analysis and meaning - the spirit of unity and cooperation among Calapangnons. The Kalap Festival celebrates the city's founding and heritage.
