About So Sarap Philippine Festival

So Sarap! Philippine Festival is a unique cultural experience presenting a world-class celebration of Philippine and Filipino American arts, culture and history.

San Diego is home to the second largest concentration of the Filipino diaspora outside of the Philippines. The approach is to provide a destination event that reflects the diversity and hospitality of the Philippines, showcasing their contributions from around the world. The event will attract and highlight local, regional, national and international artists, performers, and talents to educate the public of their past, present, and future.

This free family-friendly event takes place Saturday, October 14, 2023. Presented by the PASACAT Philippine Performing Arts Company, So Sarap! is their signature festival bridging the exchange of commerce and culture between the United States, Philippines, San Diego and beyond.
