The tradition of PISTA SA NAYON dates back centuries to the rural areas and towns of the Philippines. During Pista sa Nayon (a Filipino phrase translated town festival) Filipinos would gather for a fiesta in the middle of town to celebrate a good harvest, and it would be a time for people to focus on their neighbors, family and friends, solidifying the sense of community and hard work.
